Anacardium occidentale L. (Cashewnut)

  • Chapter
Trees IV

Part of the book series: Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry ((AGRICULTURE,volume 35))

Abstract

Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.), belonging to the family Anacardiaceae, is an evergreen tree with a dome-shaped canopy which almost touches the ground (Fig. 1A). According to Ohler (1979), there are few trees as beautiful as a tall cashew tree. The stout branches arise very low on the trunk and some of them trail on the ground. The bark is thick, resinous, and scaly. The wood is yellow, moderately soft, light, having a relative density of 0.50 (Tavares 1959). The leaves are simple, glabrous, obovate, thickly coriaceous, often notched at the apex. The tree normally comes to flowering in 3 to 5 years. The inflorescence is an indeterminate panicle of which 96% of the flowers are staminate (Johnson 1973). Rao and Hassan (1957a) describe two distinct growth flushes and emergence of panicles on shoots during October and January. The flowers are essentially cross-pollinated (Wait and Jamieson 1986). The pollination is totally dependent on insects (Reddi 1992).
