Abstract

The present paper describes the review of research work done on extreme weather events and its impact on groundnut production in India. Amongst the various extreme weather events, only those extreme weather events are considered which have direct relevance to groundnut production. These are low temperature extremes, high temperature extremes and rainfall associated extreme events. Impact of extreme weather events on growth, development and yield of groundnut are described. Since the 80% of groundnut production is from kharif season, more emphasis is given on impact of rainfall distribution, soil moisture, moisture stress and drought on groundnut.
