A macro or closeup photo of freshly roasted peanuts sprinkled with sea salt for seasoning. The peanut, also known as the groundnut,goober, or monkey nut, and taxonomically classified as Arachis hypogaea, is a legume crop grown mainly for its edible seeds. It is widely grown in the tropics and subtropics, being important to both small and large commercial producers. It is classified as both a grain legume and, due to its high oil content, an oil crop. A typically among legume crop plants, peanut pods develop underground rather than above ground. With this characteristic in mind, the botanist Carl Linnaeus named the species hypogaea, which means `under the earth`.
