Description Nyanda (ICGV 93437) is a new Spanish groundnut breeding line developed at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics, Patancheru, Andhra Pradesh, India, during the 1990s. It was released in Zimbabwe in 2001 for commercial cultivation. It was derived from the cross between two early maturing advanced breeding lines ICGV 86063 and ICGV 86065. Nyanda produces 13.5% higher yield than the popular cultivar Falcon. It matures 6 days earlier than Falcon and is almost similar to Falcon in shelling outturn and seed size. Nyanda has erect growth habit, sequential branching pattern and green plant colour. Data on various morphological, agronomic and seed quality traits are tabulated.
