Bija

Scientific Name:

Pterocarpus marsupium

Bija, commonly known as Indian Kino Tree, thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with full sun and moderate watering. Bija is valued in traditional medicine for its heartwood, which is used to manage diabetes, heal wounds, and treat skin disorders. Bija supports forest ecosystems by providing shade, improving soil quality, and serving as a habitat and food source for various wildlife species.
