Explanation:

Parkia biglobosa, also known as the African locust bean' (West African names: néré, dodongba, doruwa, netetou, sumbala or iru) is a perennial deciduous tree of the family Fabaceae, in the genus Parkia.[1] It is found in a wide range of environments in Africa and is primarily grown for its pods that contain both a sweet pulp and valuable seeds. Where the tree is grown, the crushing and fermenting of these seeds constitutes an important economic activity. Various parts of the locust bean tree are used for medicinal and food purposes. As a standing tree, locust bean may have a positive effect on the yield of other nearby crops.
