Abstract: Peanut growth in Shandong Province, a major peanut-producing area in China, is greatly affected by drought. The present study uses hierarchical analysis, weighted comprehensive evaluation, and ArcGIS spatial analysis to conduct spatial zoning of peanut drought risk in Shandong Province based on daily precipitation data for the province acquired from 1991 to 2020, the per capita GDP, and the peanut planting area of Shandong Province, so as to quantify the disaster risk of peanut drought and formulate disaster prevention and resilience planning accordingly. The results show the high-drought-risk zone was mainly distributed in the northwestern part of Shandong Province and on the Jiaodong Peninsula, covering 32.4% of the province. Drought risk was concentrated on the Jiaodong Peninsula, covering 20.7% of the province. The high-vulnerability zone was mainly distributed in the cities of Yantai, Weihai, Linyi, and Rizhao, accounting for 26.8% of the total area. The low-disaster-prevention and low-mitigation-capacity zone was mainly distributed in the western part of Shandong Province, covering 38.7% of the province. Medium- and high-risk areas for drought affecting peanuts were widely distributed, while the overall comprehensive risk index was high, covering 76.2% of the province. Spatial analysis to conduct risk zoning and assessment of peanut drought in Shandong Province, so as to provide a basis for peanut drought disaster prevention and safe peanut production in Shandong Province.
