Areca palms (Areca catechu)

These Areca palms (Areca catechu) have overgrown in their polybags in my nursery way back in 2020 and is now fruiting. The fruit often known locally as "bunga," is a highly effective, low-cost natural dewormer for livestock, particularly chickens, goats, and sheep, capable of expelling roundworms and tapeworms. It is used as a traditional, chemical-free, and sustainable alternative to commercial anthelmintics.
