| Medicinal Plant Moringa Oleifera |
A useful plant !!!!!
Moringa locally known as سوانجنا in Pakistan and India is an old plant and very useful one. Traditionally, Moring roots had been used as a local pickle. The nutritional value had never been known to even users of this plant. It's a wonderful plant with multiple usages (Moringa Leaf) and numerous benefits. Still, it is not an extinct plant, rather available in the fresh form under field conditions and dried form at the market level. It can be grown in the nook and corner of the house having lawns. Seed can be purchased from the market or farmers to grow in your own fields.
