Abstract
Abstract Minimum sufficiency levels of hull and seed Ca for maximum yield and grade of runner or Virginia type peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) have not been established and there is limited information on single and combined effects of limestone and gypsum on production and quality of peanuts. Field experiments were conducted on runner and Virginia type peanuts to study single and combined effects of limestone and gypsum on yield and grade, and to attempt to establish minimum sufficiency levels of hull and seed Ca for maximum yield and grade of each type. Gypsum treatments, O, low, medium, and high rates, were superimposed on residual limestone rates on three sites with ‘Florunner’ (runner type) and on one site with ‘NC‐7’ (Virginia type) peanuts. Yield and grade of Florunner peanuts were not increased by limestone or gypsum treatments on any site even though soil Ca concentrations (Mehlich 1) ranged from 152 to 200 mg/kg among the sites. These levels were lower than the Georgia recommended minimum sufficiency value of 250 mg/kg. However, yield and grade of ‘NC‐7’ peanuts were increased by limestone or gypsum, but maximum yield occurred only where gypsum was applied even with soil Ca levels of 682 mg/kg. The minimum hull Ca level of 1.2 g/kg and seed Ca of 0.42 g/kg were sufficient for Florunner peanuts since yields and quality were not increased by limestone or gypsum application. Maximim yield and grade were achieved with Florunner at leaf, hull, and seed Ca concentrations of 13.2, 1.2, and 0.42 g/kg as compared with 26.0, 1.9, and 0.58 g/kg for NC‐7, respectively. These data show that NC‐7 has a higher Ca requirement than Florunner.
