Effect of Time and Rate of Fertilizer Application on Yield and Seed-Size of Jumbo Runner Peanuts¹

Synopsis: Peanut fruits contained more large seeds when all fertilizer was applied to the corn in a 2-year rotation rather than applied equally between crops. On both Galestown fine sand and Woodstown loamy fine sand, fruit drop-off was higher on plots fertilized the same year peanuts were grown. At the Galestown site, fruit drop-off was greater on the fertilized than on the check plots. There was no significant yield response to fertilization over a 5-year period.
