The peanut also called the groundnut, is a crop grown for the edible seeds it produces. These peanuts are categorized as legume grain and an oil crop. Global production of peanuts, without their shells, averages 44 million tons annually. Peanuts are a great source of b vitamins, dietary fiber, healthy fats, protein, and magnesium. Peanuts can be consumed whole or used in the production of peanut oil, peanut butter, peanut flour, peanut proteins, or as animal feed.
