The machinery used in the groundnut oil processing in Africa comprises of the dehulling machine or decorticator, cleaning machine, cooking machine, oil expeller, oil filter press and oil refining machine.
Do agroecologies affect groundnut production in Tanzania?
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production in Tanzania is affected by a multitude of biotic and abiotic stresses and socioeconomic constraints. The objective of this study was to document the groundnut farmers’ major production constraints, farming systems, and varietal trait preferences in selected agroecologies of Tanzania.
Are high-yielding groundnut cultivars suitable for adoption and adaptation in Tanzania?
There is another set of studies where researchers have focused on farm evaluation of potentially high-yielding groundnut cultivars for adoption and adaptation in Tanzania (Tulole, 2010; Daudi et al., 2018; Mwalongo et al., 2020;Lukurugu et al., 2021).
Where is groundnut cultivated?
Groundnut is cultivated predominantly in the tropics and subtropics, where the availability of water is a major constraint on yield (Viramani and Singh, 1986; Happy et al., 2018). The crop is subjected to water deficit stress at one stage or another leading to drastic reduction in productivity. … …
