This paper considers the main areas of groundnut cultivation in Tanzania, farmers' yields, production, and marketing. The crop is grown almost entirely by small scale farmers who have access to a limited range of local cultivars and who practice groundnut farming at a very low input level. There is no certified seed multiplication. Past research on groundnuts is briefly reviewed and the research program of the Oilseeds Research Project is outlined. Collection and evaluation of groundnut germplasm is given high priority, and agronomic and crop protection investigations are being made. Testing of exotic materials has led to the release of the spanish type cultivar Nyota (Spancross) to growers in the Mtwara and Lindi Regions
