National Peanut Board
Our farmers are the heart of it all
The National Peanut Board (NPB) is a 100% farmer-funded national research, promotion and education group in support of all things peanuts. Behind every peanut is a community, and we’re proud to support America’s 7,000 peanut-farming families who grow them with care. Together, they produce around 6 billion pounds of peanuts annually, with 75% of the crop used right here in the U.S. We honor the roots of peanut farming while also looking ahead — finding new ways to make peanuts even more sustainable, delicious and loved for years to come.
Our mission
We are dedicated to advancing the value of U.S.-grown peanuts and strengthening the future of peanut-farming families through strategic promotion and innovative research.
Our vision
More people are enjoying and using more peanuts in more ways, more often.

Principled
We operate honestly, ethically, fairly and in ways that engender trust among our stakeholders, consumers and the communities we serve.
