Cashew Nut

A Unique Seed with a Global Journey

While commonly categorized as a nut, the cashew, in its true essence, is a drupe. This remarkable seed hails originally from Brazil's lush landscapes. In a significant historical move during the 16th century, Portuguese explorers introduced the cashew to the soils of Africa and Asia. This introduction was more than just a matter of agriculture; it played a key role in ecological strategies, particularly in combating desertification in Sub-Saharan Africa.
