Peanut is not only an important edible oil crop , but also used in food processing, livestock feed and pharmaceutical industries. In order to improve the yield and quality of peanuts, the choice of planting time and high-yield planting technology becomes crucial. So how to plant peanuts? Let’s take a look below. 1. Planting time In most areas, peanuts are usually planted in spring or summer. The best strategy for choosing planting time is a comprehensive consideration of local climate data, soil conditions and agronomic management requirements. 2. Soil preparation and improvement Choose soil that is loose, well-drained and has a pH of 6.0-7.0. Deep plowing and tillage are carried out, and organic and mineral fertilizers are added to improve soil structure and provide adequate nutrients. 3. Variety selection Choose high-yield varieties that are adapted to local climate and soil conditions and are resistant to pests and diseases, drought and cold. Commonly used varieties include Huayue No. 1, Qinhua Peanut No. 1, etc. 4. Planting density and row spacing Determine the appropriate sowing density and row spacing based on the variety and soil conditions, generally 100,000 to 150,000 plants per mu. Close planting helps increase yield and utilize soil resources. 5. Irrigation management Adopt a reasonable irrigation system according to the different stages of peanut growth and soil moisture conditions. Ensure adequate water supply, but avoid standing water or overwatering which can cause root suffocation and disease. 6. Fertilization technology Apply nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients reasonably according to the soil nutrient status and peanut growth requirements. Top dressing should be carried out in conjunction with the growth stages to increase plant height, flowering and pod-setting ability. 7. Pest and disease control Establish a comprehensive pest and disease control strategy, including pest and disease monitoring and early warning, reasonable prevention and control measures (such as biological control, chemical control, etc.) and good field hygiene management. 8. Timely harvesting and post-processing Harvest at the right time according to the growing period of the variety and the maturity of the pods. Pay attention to details during the harvesting process, such as avoiding damage to the pods and maintaining seed integrity. Proper drying and storage after harvesting is required to maintain the quality and nutritional value of the seeds. That’s it |
