How to Plant Peanuts Efficiently Using a Walking Tractor — The AgriBuzz Method

Planting peanuts doesn’t have to be labor-intensive or primitive. At AgriBuzz, we use a simple yet effective method that combines traditional knowledge with small-scale machinery — saving time, energy, and improving seed coverage.

Here’s how we do it:

🌱 Step 1: Create Your Planting Line

Start by marking a straight row using a plug line or furrow maker. This will be the trench where you drop the peanut seeds. Make sure your soil is moist and loose for better seed germination.

🌰 Step 2: Drop the Peanut Seeds

Walk along the furrow and drop the seeds evenly. This step can be done by hand or with a simple seed spreader.

🚜 Step 3: Cover the Seeds Using a Walking Tractor

Now comes the smart part. Drive your walking tractor to make the next planting line right next to the first one. As the tractor plows the new furrow, the soil it turns will naturally cover the seeds from the previous line.

🔁 Step 4: Repeat the Process

Repeat the cycle — drop seeds along each new line and use the next furrow to cover them. This creates a continuous, time-saving planting rhythm that’s easy to scale.


💡 Why This Method Works

  • Faster than traditional hand-covering

  • Even seed coverage for better germination

  • Ideal for small-to-medium scale farms

  • Reduces labor and improves planting precision


🌾 Farming Smart, Not Hard

At AgriBuzz, we believe in farming smart, not hard. By using the tools we have — like the walking tractor — we create a system that’s not primitive, but practical and scalable. This method reflects how modern farmers can innovate without needing expensive equipment.
