Peñaranda is a 4th class municipality in the province of Nueva Ecija, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 32,269 people. It is bordered by the municipalities of General Tinio and San Leonardo, and the city of Gapan.
The area was originally called Mapisong, and it was a part of the municipality of Gapan. It was renamed Peñaranda in 1903 after General Manuel Peñaranda, a Filipino general who fought in the Philippine-American War.
Peñaranda is known for its high quality crop called ikmo, a plant used by older Filipinos as a chewing substance. Recently however, the crop is on the brink of extinction. Rice remains a flourishing farm produce. In 2012, the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) and the ICHCAP of UNESCO published Pinagmulan: Enumeration from the Philippine Inventory of Intangible Cultural Heritage. The first edition of the UNESCO-backed book included Nueva Ecija's Arakyo, signifying its great importance to Philippine intangible cultural heritage.
