Peanuts belong to the legume family and were first found around 7500 years ago in the South American country of Peru. In the modern world, China and India are the leading peanut producers internationally but Senegal, the USA, Sudan, and Brazil are the leading peanut exporters of the world due to low local consumption in these nations. Whereas the major importers of peanuts are Japan, Europe, and Canada.
Indian peanuts are consumed in over 50 countries. Indian peanuts are the only source that is available all around the year. Crops are planted in two cycles and harvested in March and October. There are several other inter-cropping cycles that make Indian peanut a prime source of supply.
