Origin
Originally from South America, peanuts are grown in the warm climates of Asia, Africa, Australia, and North America. Peanuts are grown commercially in 13 states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia. 10
Florida is a major producer of boiling peanuts, which are usually planted early and throughout the year (February–July) to keep a continuous supply. 11
About 75% of U.S. peanuts are used domestically. The rest are exported primarily to Canada, Japan, and Western Europe. Americans eat an average 3.5 pounds of peanut butter per person per year. 6,10,11

Description
Peanuts are adapted to all portions of Florida except South Florida. Most of the commercial acreage of boiling peanuts is in central and north Florida, but peanuts are also planted for early spring harvest in warm areas of southern counties. 2,4

Flowers
Peanuts reproduce by a fairly rare method called geocarpy, meaning that the plant flowers above ground, but the fruit forms and matures underground. 3
The Latin word hypogaea means: underground; developing in the earth. 13

Pollination
After self-pollination, the ovary that produces the pods is pushed into the soil by pegs (reproductive stem), where the pod develops. 2

Cultivars
Two subspecies are grown commercially, and four market types are of greatest economic importance. A. hypogaea subsp. hypogaea includes the market types “runner” and “Virginia,” and A. hypogaea subsp. fastigata includes the market types “Spanish” and “Valencia.” 14
For Florida, the following are suggested: ‘Florigiant,’ a Virginia type maturing in about 135 days; ‘Florunner’ and ‘Sunrunner’, runner types maturing in about 135 days; and ‘Starr,’ a Spanish type maturing in about 120 days. Other Spanish types that may be planted are ‘Tifspan,’ ‘Sancross,’ and ‘Tamnut 74.’ 2

Harvesting
Peanuts flower over a long period of time and so pods do not mature at the same time. The pods are closely clustered at the base of the bunch type; the runner varieties have pods scattered along their prostrate branches from base to tip.
Peanuts for boiling are usually harvested at an earlier maturity than for roasting.
Peanuts for dry use are usually harvested when about 75% of the hulls have a dark interior surface. 1,2

Methods to Evaluate Peanut Maturity for Optimal Seed Quality and Yield, University of Florida pdf

Curing

Pile the plants into fluffy, well-aerated piles (called windrows). Allow to “cure” in this fashion for 5 to 10 days of warm temperatures and relatively dry weather without rain. Reducing the moisture content of the seeds and pods is the main purpose of curing. (Proper curing is necessary to insure desirable flavor, texture, and overall quality.) 2
Whatever method of drying is used, be sure that mold or rot does not develop on the peanuts. Flavor and food safety of the nuts can be affected by molds because of toxins produced by certain fungi. 1

Seed storage
Time to 50% loss in viability: >4 years at 41 °F (5 °C) 14

Fertilizing
The peanut is a legume and, therefore, is capable of fixing nitrogen within its root nodules. Where peanuts are grown for the first time, inoculation of the seeds is advised. 2
Peanuts respond better to residual fertility than to direct fertilization. If a well-fertilized crop precedes peanuts, direct fertilization may not increase yield or quality of the peanuts. 1
If fertilizer is needed, broadcast and incorporate it with the soil prior to land preparation. Foliar sprays of nutrients are generally ineffective or not economically feasible, except to prevent or correct some micronutrient deficiencies. Boron is often the only micro-nutrient that might be need to be added for peanuts but can often be found in the fertilizer applied prior to planting. 1
For development of well-filled nuts, an adequate supply of calcium must be available in the fruiting zone. Agricultural gypsum is often applied beside the row after the plants are blooming. 2

Irrigation

Irrigation may be needed for consistent production on deep sands. If it is dry after planting, be sure to irrigate to get the peanuts up to a good stand. Peanuts are somewhat drought tolerant at certain growth stages. Over irrigation can increase the risk of disease while under irrigation can increase the risk of aflatoxin contamination. 5,17

Peanut Irrigation, University of Florida

Pests/Diseases
There are naturally occurring fungi (molds) found in soil. One common fungus is called "white mold" or "southern blight" (Sclerotium rolfsii). This fungus usually damages roots, stems, and pods. Good land management practices (crop rotation, irrigation, etc.) or fungicides can be used to control this problem. Another mold, Aspergillus, has 2 species (A. flavus, A. parasiticus) which can be a problem. During the latter part of the growing season, peanuts are especially susceptible to drought and high temperatures. Under those conditions these fungi, can infect peanuts and produce a chemical (aflatoxin) which can potentially pose health and economic risks. 6

Food uses
The nuts can be eaten raw or boiled while “green” (undried) or they can be dried and stored for eating raw, or roasting (either in-shell or shelled). 1
Place peanuts in their shells in a single layer on a baking sheet, bake at 350 °F (177 °C) for 20 to 30 mins (Fig. 15).
