Google "biodiesel" and "Moringa". You see many news articles pointing to Moringa seeds as the newest source of biodiesel fuel.
Also known as the Horseradish Tree, Ben Tree, Benzolive, Malunggay and Drumstick Tree. Seeds are for cultivation (growing) only. Plant seeds 1" deep in well-drained soil in warm environment, in full sun; keep soil moist after planting. Sprouting normally occurs in 1-2 weeks with proper care. Seedlings grow quickly and might reach a height of 15' in one year. Cut tops of trees to encourage branching at lower levels. Cultivate by cuttings: use minimum 3/4" diameter branch. Keep it moist in partial shade until sprouting occurs after about 3 weeks. Moringa has drought-resistance, but is NOT cold tolerant. Freezes will cause it to die back. Good salt tolerance.
Excellent feed for cows, horses, goats and humans!
