    ​Terminalia catappa, commonly known as Kaathe Badaam, काठे बदाम, सानो हेजलनट, Small Hejalnut, or Tropical Almond, is a large, deciduous tree belonging to the Combretaceae family. It's renowned for its distinctive pagoda-like canopy and broad, glossy leaves that turn vibrant red before shedding. Native to Malaysia, this tree has spread across tropical regions worldwide, including Nepal, where it's found at elevations between 1,600 and 3,000 meters. It's particularly suited to acidic and alkaline soils and thrives in areas prone to frost. In Nepal, new saplings are typically planted during the winter months of Poush and Magh (December to February).​

    Availability in Nepal and Other Countries

    In Nepal, Kaathe Badaam is cultivated in mid-hill regions, flourishing in the specified altitudinal range. Its adaptability to various soil types makes it a favorable choice for local farmers. Beyond Nepal, Terminalia catappa is prevalent in countries like India, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, and various Pacific islands. Its global distribution is attributed to its resilience and the multiple benefits it offers, leading to its widespread cultivation in tropical and subtropical regions

    Physical Properties

    The tree typically grows between 15 to 20 meters tall, featuring a thick trunk with smooth, gray bark marked by longitudinal fissures. Its branches extend horizontally, forming a layered canopy that provides ample shade. The leaves are broad-ovate or elliptical, measuring 8 to 25 cm in length and 5 to 14 cm in width, with a leathery texture and a vibrant green hue that turns red before they fall. The tree produces small, white or greenish flowers grouped in axillary inflorescences. The fruit is a fleshy, ovoid drupe about 6 cm long, which transitions from green to purple upon ripening. Inside the hard, fibrous shell lies an oily seed reminiscent of an almond in both appearance and taste

    Medicinal Properties

    Various parts of Terminalia catappa have been utilized in traditional medicine for their therapeutic benefits. The bark is known for its astringent and antidysenteric properties and serves as a mild diuretic. The leaves exhibit antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects, making them useful in treating wounds and skin conditions. Additionally, the leaves have been found to possess analgesic and antioxidant properties, contributing to their use in pain relief and combating oxidative stress. The kernel oil, rich in oleic, linoleic, palmitic, and stearic acids, is often used as a substitute for almond oil and is believed to offer nutritional benefits.  

    Advantages and Uses

    Terminalia catappa serves multiple purposes, both medicinal and practical

    • Nutritional Benefits: The kernels are edible and can be consumed fresh, roasted, or used in confectioneries. They are rich in proteins, healthy fats, and essential amino acids, making them a valuable food source. In some regions, the kernels are processed into flour for baking or used as a thickening agent in soups and baby foods
    • Medicinal Uses: The bark and leaves are employed in traditional remedies to treat ailments such as diarrhea, dysentery, and rheumatic joints. An ointment made from leaf juice is applied to skin conditions like scabies.  
    • Environmental Services: The tree's extensive root system aids in erosion control, making it valuable for soil conservation efforts. Its broad canopy provides shade and is often used in urban landscaping to enhance aesthetic appeal and offer respite from the sun. ​
    • Industrial Uses: The wood is utilized in light construction, for making poles, decorative veneers, and furniture. The fruit husks can be processed to produce a black dye, while the bark and roots contain tannins used in leather tanning.  

    Methods of Use

    In traditional practices, various methods are employed to harness the benefits of Terminalia catappa:​

    • For Nutritional Purposes: The kernels can be eaten raw, roasted, or incorporated into dishes as a protein supplement. In some cultures, they are ground into flour to enrich baked goods or used as a thickener in soups and porridges. ​
    • Medicinal Applications: A decoction of the bark is consumed to alleviate digestive issues, while crushed leaves are applied topically to wounds or inflamed areas to reduce swelling and prevent infection. Leaf extracts are also used in baths to treat skin conditions.  
    • Environmental and Industrial Uses: Planting the tree in erosion-prone areas helps stabilize the soil. The wood is harvested for construction purposes, and the fruit husks are processed to extract dyes for textile coloring. ​

    Harvesting and Preservation

    The fruits of Terminalia catappa typically mature and are ready for harvest during the late summer to early autumn months. In Nepal, this period aligns with the end of the monsoon season. To harvest, ripe fruits that have turned purple are collected from the tree or the ground. The outer flesh is removed to access the hard-shelled kernel inside. To preserve the kernels, they should be thoroughly dried to reduce moisture content, preventing mold growth. Once dried, they can be stored in airtight containers in a cool, dry place for several months. For medicinal use, bark and leaves should be harvested during the dry season when their active compounds are most concentrated.
