Synopsis Peanut fruits contained more large seeds when all fertilizer was applied to the corn in a 2‐year rotation rather than applied equally between crops. On both Galestown fine sand and Woodstown loamy fine sand, fruit drop‐off was higher on plots fertilized the same year peanuts were grown. At the Galestown site, fruit drop‐off was greater on the fertilized than on the check plots. There was no significant yield response to fertilization over a 5‐year period.
