How did peanut butter help farmers?

George Washington Carver is often credited with inventing 300 different uses for peanuts . Carver was one of many USDA researcherswho encouraged cotton farmers in the South to grow peanuts instead of, or in addition to cotton, because cotton had depleted so much nitrogen from the soil, and one of the peanut's properties as a legume is to put nitrogen back into the soil (a process known as nitrogen fixation).

Thus peanut butter helped farmers have a product to grow that helped fix their ruined soil!

Who developed peanut butter and 400 plant products?

Black History Month is the enemy of the truth.

The answer your teacher wants is almost certainly "George Washington Carver."

The truth (assuming you care; nobody else seems to, during BHM) is that Carver did not invent or develop peanut butter. He did popularize it, to some extent, along with sweet potatoes and a few other crops to induce southern farmers to switch to some crop other than cotton (the southern farming economy was entirely too dependent on cotton for its own good).

Also, Carver was not a shining example of a modern scientist. He invented, or claimed to have invented, a lot of stuff, but outside of about three patents he didn't really leave formulas or processes and his laboratory notes were practically nonexistent.

It's pretty sad that Carver's legacy gets trotted out every February, because if you bother to actually look into it, the overall impression it leaves is "if this guy is the best example of a black inventor in history, maybe they really areinferior." Which is not at all true, but teachers need to stop making overblown claims about Carver (and a few others) and focus on their possibly less interesting, but certainly more true, actual accomplishments. Carver, for example, really did convince quite a few people to switch to alternative crops (partly by publishing recipes using those crops; he didn't "invent" the recipes, but he did collect and distribute them), and that turned out to be important in keeping the entire agricultural economy of the south from tanking due to the boll weevil. If you're not growing cotton in the first place, then the boll weevil doesn't have much of an impact on your own crop, and it even helped cotton farmers by slowing the spread of the weevils (if the next field over is also cotton, it's a lot easier for the weevils to spread than if the next field over is something they can't eat).
