contents <p>Value chain is way to improve income generation and refers to the entire set of activities carried out by difference actors in the chain as well as can lead to proper resources management. Groundnut represents one of the most important oil crop in Sudan. The study conducted in North Kordofan State (NKS) of Sheikan locality during 2019/2020 cropping season. It aimed at analyzing groundnut value chain in traditional rain-fed and identifying value chain actors in Sheikan locality of North Kordofan State. Three administrative units were randomly selected. Data collected via structured questionnaires and group discussion. Where 196 farmers were selected using the clustered random sample technique. Study revealed that, the main value chain actors were farmers, traders, wholesalers, processors, retailers, and consumers. Moreover, the highest value added in groundnut is received by processors (42.12%), while farmers, assemblers, wholesalers, and retailers who received as 31.1%, 3.6%, 9.8% and 13.4%, respectively along the chain. Results also indicated that, the lowest coefficient was15.4% received by farmers, followed by 49.3%, 60.9%, 104.2%, and 153% for traders, wholesalers, processors, and retailers, respectively. Study showed that many constraints were found to prevent groundnut value chain development in the study area. The study recommended policy intervention for developing market information and marketing infrastructure of groundnut in Sheikan particularly.</p>
