ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for removing stems from picked green peanuts and for removing dirt and debris therefrom. Green peanuts are fed into a destemmer having a sloping plate with a plurality of slots through which rotating slotted destemmer wheels project. The stems are caught in the wheel slots and separated from the peanuts as the wheels rotate through the plate slots. The destemmed peanuts are deposited in a washing tank in which rotating cylindrical brushes force the peanuts under water, removing dirt and debris. The peanuts move to an upwardly inclined conveyor belt which carry the peanuts to a packaging station.
