Aik Darek Village, Batukliang Sub-District, Central Lombok District, West Nusa Tenggara Province of Indonesia is a technically irrigated rice field with a rice-paddy-grain/vegetable and/or rice-grain-grain cropping patterns. One of the secondary crops cultivated is peanut, grown in monoculture with the Kelinci variety. Sources of seeds used generally come from previous crops. Peanut productivity at the farmer level is still relatively low at around 1.6 tonnes/ha, one of the reasons is that farmers still use seeds from previous plantings. The adaptation test of several peanut varieties was conducted from July to December 2014 using a randomized completely block design with 4 varieties of peanut as treatments, namely: 1) Bison, 2) Kancil, 3) Kelinci, and 4) Bima. The research was conducted on an area of 0.80 ha consisting of 4 farmers each with an area of 0.20 ha which was also used as replications. Each farmer's land was made as many as 4 plots with the same size. Parameters observed included plant height, number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pods, weight of 100 seeds, fresh pod production and dry pod production. The data collected was then analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and if there was a significant difference, it was continued with the LSD test at the 5% level. The results of data analysis: plant height, number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pods, weight of 100 seeds, fresh pod production and dry pod production of the 4 tested peanut varieties showed significant differences. Bison variety produced 2,086.46 kg/ha dry pods, followed by Kelinci 1,702.93 kg/ha.
