Abstract:With high-yielding big peanut variety Huayu 25 as material , the effect of mechanical shell-ing and the difference of seed activity were analyzed after treated ( including spraying water and storage time ) . The results showed that compared with the control , the peanut shelling rate of 6 treatment groups were higher;spraying water was helpful to reduce the seed damage and increase the seed germination rate , and also the treatments with the same water quantity and properly delayed treating time;storing the shelled seeds for some days was helpful to increase the germination rate .The shelling rate ,complete number and germination rate of peanut seeds were better ,when every 500-g pods were sprayed 100 mL of water and stored for 12~24 hours.
