Prosopis cineraria, commonly known as the khejri tree, is a drought-resistant tree native to the arid regions of India and Pakistan. It can grow up to 10-15 meters tall and is characterized by its feathery leaves and yellow flowers. The tree is well-adapted to harsh climates and poor soil conditions, making it an important species for desert ecosystems. The khejri tree plays a vital role in local communities by providing shade, fuelwood, and fodder for livestock. Its pods are edible and can be used as a food source for both humans and animals. Additionally, Prosopis cineraria helps prevent soil erosion and improves soil fertility, contributing to sustainable land management.
