Taad

Scientific Name:

Borassus flabellifer

Taad thrives in sandy, well-drained soil with full sun, offering food and shelter for birds, bats, and insects. Its extensive root system helps prevent soil erosion, especially in arid regions, making it vital for land stabilization. The wood is prized for construction and crafting, while its fruits and sap are widely utilized to produce jaggery, vinegar, and fermented beverages.
