Groundnut being arid agriculture crop is facing serious pod yield reducing threats. The global warming further deteriorates this menace and now drought emerges as major limiting factor in groundnut yield maximization. In this study different genotypes were evaluated at three different Agro-Eclogical Zones to identy high pod yielding and adopted groundnut genotype(s) for commercial cultivation. The book in hand certainly provides base-line information and guiding principles for groundnut researchers, planners, students, progressive growers and organizations. Therefore, it should be in each library.
