  • How is seed produced in Botswana?
  • In Botswana, seed production and distribution is done through the public supply system. The Government (under the DAR) produces and certifies seeds. Recognizing the fact that seed continues to be the primary need for re-establishing disadvantaged farmers, the government gives free seed as a drought relief measure.
  • How are peanuts processed?
  • Local peanut mills take peanuts from the farm to be further cured (if necessary), cleaned, stored, and processed for various uses (oil production, roasting, peanut butter production, etc.). Major process steps include processing peanuts for in-shell consumption and shelling peanuts for other uses. Some peanuts are processed for in-shell roasting.
  • What is the agricultural sector in Botswana?
  • Consequently, the agricultural sector contributes only about 3.0% of the GDP. Major crops grown in Botswana are sorghum, maize, millet and cowpeas. The Botswana agricultural research system responds mainly to an inherently poor natural resource base.
  • How do peanut plants grow?
  • After open-air drying, mature peanuts are picked up from the windrow with combines that separate the peanut pods from the plant using various thrashing operations. The peanut plants are deposited back onto the fields and the pods are accumulated in hoppers.
