Groundnut is cultivated as a major oilseed crop in Andhra Pradesh. As the farmers want to strip the pods immediately after harvest mainly to prevent crop damage from unexpected rains and other field losses, a fresh pod thresher for groundnut wastested for its performance in comparison withconventional method of groundnut threshing (stripping of pods by hand) at Agricultural Research Station, Anantapur. Its overall performance was satisfactory and recorded an output of 225 kg/h with threshing and cleaning efficiencies of 96 and 98 per cent, respectively. The use of groundnut thresher can save 75 per cent labour and 40 per cent of cost compared to conventional method of groundnut threshing.Keywords
