Moringa, a healing plant, is also referred to as the "Tree of Life". It is a super hardy, resilient tree that is mostly grown in the tropics of Asia and Africa. Its seeds are large and circular-shaped, and grow inside the lengthy pods of the Moringa oleifera tree.
Moringa trees give off incredible volume of seed pods during their reproduction months. An average-sized tree of fifteen to twenty feet in height can produce hundreds or even thousands of seed pods, yielding countless seeds each and every year.
Unlike the leaves of the Moringa oleifera tree that grow fast, the seed pods do not grow back every few months. Moringa trees produce seed pods on an annual basis like other similar species. And as is the case with other healing plants, it is always worth the wait for the trees to produce their seed pods.
Moringa seeds are popular in many countries around the world. The seeds can be steamed or boiled, either in the pod or shelled, much like peas or green beans. They can also be seasoned and roasted as a snack food. They are packed with nutrients, making them as popular as Moringa leaves in many household meals and recipes. Moringa seed is widely known to be very medicinal and researches have shown that it prevents and cure many diseases.
Demand for export
Moringa oleifera is marketed as a ‘superfood’ on international markets. Products from the tree have multiple health, food and cosmetic uses. They are used in: food, cosmetics and health products.
Because Moringa oleifera doesn’t grow in continental Europe, most supplies need to be met by imports. Globally, the market for sports nutrition and high energy supplements is expected to grow by 10% annually from 2014 to 2020. In 2020, this market is expected to reach $66 billion (€59 billion), which offers opportunities for Moringa oleifera which is increasingly popular among European consumers.
Export of moringa seeds is outstandingly profitable because of the value and demand.
