Apple Ring Acacia Odmiany
(Faidherbia albida)
Apple ring acacias are tall, drought tolerant, deciduous, nitrogen-fixing trees up to 30 m in height. They are commonly used for inter-cropping with staple crops in dry areas as leaves help mulch and shade crops below. Faidherbia albida is an ideal multipurpose agroforestry tree that is widely planted in dry areas of West and East Africa where fallow periods have become very short or have disappeared.
