The objective of this work was to estimate stability and adaptability parameters, related to pod and seed yields, of nine peanut genotypes evaluated in eight environments of Pernambuco State, Brazil. A randomized block design was used with five replicates. The method of Eberhart & Russell was utilized. The genotypes BR1, BRS Havana, BRS 151 L7, CNPA 280 AM e L7 Beje showed high pod and seed production, with yield averages of 3,106 kg ha-1 and 2,068 kg ha-1, respectively. However, taking into account both pod and seed yields, BRS 151 L7 showed high production, broad adaptability and previsible behavior in the environmental conditions evaluated; and genotypes BR 1, BRS Havana and L7 Beje were also highly adapted and stable, but only for seed yield.
