Moringa oleifera seedlings: Moringa oleifera, Moringa oleifera, native to India, also known as drumstick tree, is a perennial tropical deciduous tree. There are about 14 species in the world, and the following three species are often eaten in front of the shed: Indian Moringa oleifera (a fine variety of TN Agricultural University in India with high pod yield) and African Moringa oleifera.
The height of fast-growing perennial trees can reach 7 ~ 12 m and the trunk diameter is 20 ~ 40 cm. The trunk is upright, and when it reaches 1.5 ~ 2 meters, the main branches begin to sprout. The extension of the main branch is irregular, and its crown is like an umbrella as a bridge. Moringa oleifera grows very fast. If it is not pruned at seedling stage, it can grow to 4 meters high in the first year and the trunk diameter can reach 30cm. Even if it is excessively pruned, it can be regenerated and can be continuously produced almost all year round.
Moringa oleifera is widely planted in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia and Africa, and has strong adaptability to soil conditions and rainfall. Moringa likes light and is resistant to long-term drought. Moringa oleifera has a long taproot, which makes it resistant to long-term drought. Its suitable growth temperature is 25-35℃, and it can tolerate high temperature and slight frost of 48℃ under shading conditions. The above-ground parts of Moringa oleifera may be killed by the cold, but after the cold, new buds will sprout and grow into plants.
