Peanut

Peanut (or groundnut) is the name of a plant that ranges from 20 to 90 cm in height with 2 or 3 pairs of leaves. It needs heat, light and a rather dry environment. It produces yellow flowers, but the edible part grows in earth. A shell measures 3 to 4 cm long and contains 2 seeds.
Its cultivation area is the most extensive in the world, which totals 108 countries. However, its primary cultivation today is located in tropical countries, Africa, India, the United States and China.
