The climatic conditions that favour the growth of groundnut are-

  1. Temperature — Groundnut requires about 20°C to 25°C temperature. Dry weather is needed during the time of ripening.
  2. Rainfall — It requires light to moderate rainfall between 50 to 100 cm. Rainfall should be well distributed.
