KASHUMAVU

Kashumavu, commonly known as Cashew, is a premium tropical fruit and nut tree valued for its delicious cashew apples and nutritious cashew nuts. The tree produces colorful, juicy cashew apples with a sweet-tangy flavor, while the attached kidney-shaped cashew nut is one of the world's most popular edible nuts. Grafted Kashumavu plants typically begin bearing fruits within 2–3 years under proper care, making them an excellent choice for home gardens and commercial plantations.

Kashumavu thrives in warm tropical and subtropical climates and grows best in fertile, well-drained soil with full sunlight. The hardy tree is drought-tolerant once established, requires minimal maintenance, and produces abundant harvests every season. Cashew apples are rich in Vitamin C, antioxidants, and minerals, while cashew nuts are an excellent source of healthy fats, protein, magnesium, and essential nutrients. Its dual-purpose value, excellent productivity, and high commercial demand make Kashumavu one of the most profitable fruit and nut trees.
