Acacia mangium
Acacia mangium is a fast-growing tree native to Australia and Southeast Asia, valued for its timber, pulp, and reforestation potential. It belongs to the legume family, meaning it can fix nitrogen in the soil, improving soil health. The tree has compound leaves, fragrant yellow flowers, and produces seed pods. It thrives in tropical and subtropical climates, growing quickly and reaching maturity in about 7-10 years. Due to its ability to improve land and produce useful wood, Acacia mangium is commonly used in forestry, land rehabilitation, and as a renewable resource.
