Mahua is an Indian tropical tree found largely in the central and north Indian plains and forests.It is cultivated for its oleaginous seeds, flowers and wood. The fat is used for the care of skin, to manufacture soap or detergents, and as a vegetable butter.It can also be used as a fuel oil. The seed cakes obtained after extraction of oil constitute very good fertilizer.The flowers are used to produce an alcoholic drink. Several parts of the tree, including the bark, are used for their medicinal properties.Leaves ,flowers and fruits are also used to feed goats and sheep.
