This industry plays a significant role in the global food supply chain, contributing to both domestic consumption and international trade.

Production process

Groundnut production involves several key steps. Farmers begin by planting the groundnut seeds, ensuring proper soil preparation and irrigation. As the plants grow, they require regular weeding and pest management. The groundnuts are then harvested, typically by uprooting the entire plant. After harvesting, the nuts are dried, cleaned, and sorted before being packaged and distributed.

Production inputs

The groundnut industry relies on several key inputs, including fertile agricultural land, suitable climate conditions, and access to water for irrigation. Farmers also require specialized machinery for planting, harvesting, and processing the groundnuts. Additionally, the industry utilizes various agricultural inputs such as 31210 Fertilizersand 20211 Pesticides to optimize crop yields.

Production outputs

The primary output of the groundnut industry is the groundnut itself, which can be sold in shell or shelled form. Groundnuts are widely used in the production of 10401 Edible oils and fats and 10821 Peanut butter. They are also a key ingredient in many food products, such as snacks, confectionery, and animal feed.
