Oil content and fatty acid composition of the 50 bunch peanut types have been reported. The oil content showed little variation, (49.1 ± 2.5%) and of the major component acids, oleic acid showed little variation (44.5 ± 5%) whilst the palmitic (P) and linoleic (L) contents were reciprocally related (P + L ≏ 48%).
