Abstract: The experiments were conducted at the right side of Euphrates River of Ramadi town during two seasons 2001, 2002. The texture of soil loam , Semi – erect cultivar of peanut was planted to determine adequate spacing between rows and the best number of seeds / hill, using 60 , 80 , 100 cm inter row , and 20 cm between hills , which is planted one seed or two seeds in each spacing .using split plot design with three replications . Seeds were planted in the first middle of May planting using 60 cm between rows gave higher percentage of matured pods 81.5% at season 2001 , while the number of seed in hill did not influence for this characters , plant two seed in hill gave higher percentage of shelling 63.2% . Increase the distance between rows gave higher rate of weight seeds at both years. Planting using one seed in hill gave higher rate of plant dry weight (181.8, 164.9) gm at both years respectively. So that gives higher number of pods, reached about (66.6 – 68.5) pod and (76.4 – 92.4) seed at plant of both years. The variation in row distance and number of seeds in hill, did not influence significantly for seed yield (Kg / ha) and oil content. It can be concluded that, decrease plant population of peanut gave the best means of dry weight plant, rate of seed weight and gave high average of peanut seed yield.
