Peanuts have one of their biggest economic values in being used for oil pressing, so which peanut variety has the highest oil yield? Peanut growers who want to move into oil pressing to make money can learn more about this.
What is the oil yield of peanuts?
The oil yield of peanuts depends on the moisture, variety and oil pressing method, and is generally 36%-46%. The traditional pressing method gives a lower oil yield, the cold pressing method gives a relatively higher oil yield, and some merchants use chemical soaking, which gives an even higher oil yield. At present, 50% of peanuts in China are used for oil pressing. For oil-type peanuts, fatty acid content is the main indicator, and the oil content is high. At present, the varieties planted on a large scale in China generally have an oil content of about 50%. Oil-type varieties have an oil content of about 55%, and their yield is slightly higher than similar promoted varieties, such as Haihua No. 1 with 51.0% crude fat, Fenghua No. 1 with 49.9%, Huayu No. 22 with 49.2%, Luhua No. 11 with 52.3%, Luhua No. 9 with 54.0%, and Huayu with 52.4%.
Which peanut varieties have a high oil yield?
1. Haihua No. 1
Bred by hybridization at Gaogong Township, Haiyang County, Shandong Province, using Linhua No. 1 x Baisha 171. Through trials in various places and large-scale planting, it has the characteristics of drought resistance, lodging resistance, high yield, wide adaptability and stress resistance.
2. Fenghua No. 1
This peanut is a new large-kernel peanut variety with strong growth, high yield, stable yield and high oil yield, bred from several new peanut varieties introduced by the experimental base in recent years. A single plant sets 50 pods, up to 80, with double-seed pods accounting for 95%. The yield per mu can reach about 500 kg, and the growth period is about 135 days (about 10 days later than ordinary varieties).
3. Huayu No. 22
Advantages of this peanut: drought tolerance, cold tolerance, adaptability to cultivation in red soil, sandy soil and tidal mud soil, plus a high pod-setting rate, plump kernels, thin shells and heavy weight. The average yield per plant reaches 200-300 g, and the oil yield is 20% higher than that of ordinary peanuts.
4. Luhua No. 11
High yield, stable yield and wide adaptability. Under medium fertility, the yield per mu is about 400 kg, and under high-yield cultivation it is 500 kg/mu. The kernel rate is 73%, the crude fat content is 52%, the crude protein content is 28%, and the oleic acid/linoleic acid ratio is 1.65.
