Which peanut variety has the highest yield? Recommended high-yield varieties
The whole peanut plant is a treasure; it can be eaten and also pressed for oil. Many growers plant it. So, which peanut variety has the highest yield?
1. Which peanut variety has the highest yield?
The high-yield peanut varieties include Luhua 18, Yuanza 9102, Yuhua 22, Huayu 951, and others. The per-unit yield of these varieties is generally around 1500-1800 jin; with the support of scientific planting methods, the yield will be even higher. However, peanut yield is directly related to the planting region's environment, the peanut variety, and planting management. Places such as Henan, Hebei, and Jiangsu are suitable for planting Huayu 33, Yuanza 9847, Jihua 4, and others; in non-bacterial wilt areas of Sichuan, Hunan, and Hubei, Zhonghua 16 can be planted.
2. Peanut planting recommendations
1. For northern spring-sown peanuts, choose medium-to-late-maturing large-pod varieties with high yield-increase potential and a growth period of 130-140 days; for wheat-intercropped peanuts, choose early-maturing large-pod varieties with a growth period of 120-130 days; for summer direct-sown peanuts, choose early-maturing medium-pod or small-pod varieties with a growth period of 115-125 days; for southern spring peanuts, choose medium-pod or large-pod pearl bean-type varieties with a growth period of about 120 days.
Each region should, according to soil, climate, market, and other conditions, select high-yield, high-quality special-purpose varieties such as oil-use type, food-processing type, and export type.
2. In northern production areas, spring-sown large peanuts require the 5cm soil temperature to be stably above 15°C, and small peanuts stably above 12°C before sowing begins; wheat-intercropped peanuts are generally intercropped 15-20 days before wheat harvest; summer direct-sown peanuts require rushing to clear stubble after the previous crop is harvested; for strongly sandy soil, stubble-attached sowing may also be used, and stubble clearing is carried out after emergence. Southern spring-sown peanuts require the 5cm soil temperature to be stably above 12°C, and sowing should be done on a clear day at the end of a cold spell and the beginning of a warm one.
3. In principle, peanut fertilization should insist on using more organic fertilizer and reducing the amount of inorganic chemical fertilizer as much as possible; organic and inorganic may also be combined, quick-acting and slow-release combined, and functional fertilizer applied skillfully according to local conditions.
4. In field management, release seedlings and clear branches in time, cultivate and weed at the appropriate time, and apply moderate chemical regulation.
5. Do a good job of pest and disease control. The main diseases in the Northeast peanut production area are leaf spot and net blotch; in recent years, scab has become one of the newly epidemic diseases in western Liaoning; the main pests and diseases in the Huang-Huai peanut production area are root and stem rot, leaf spot, net blotch, and white grubs; the main diseases of peanuts in the Yangtze River Basin are leaf spot and bacterial wilt, and in recent years scab has also occurred from time to time; the main ones in the southern peanut production area are leaf spot, bacterial wilt, rust, and scab, etc.
Planting peanuts should be adapted to local conditions, and attention should be paid to consistency between variety resistance and the occurrence characteristics of local drought, flood, disease, and insect disasters, so as to ensure high yield.
