Fascinating account of how peanuts are dug up and let to dry in the air for a few weeks before the nuts are gathered and their vines are bound to be used as animal fodder. No waste. Every bit is used. It's all laid out in Jimmy Carter's "An Hour Before Daylight" as he recounts a hard-scrabble childhood as the son of a peanut and cotton farmer. What an amazing life he's lived.
