Anyone With Information On Treculia Africana (ukwa In Igbo Language)? by Primegold: 12:04pm On Mar 06, 2015 |
Hi All, I am interested in learning more about Treculia Africana popularly called ukwa in Igbo language. Does anyone know a nursery where seedlings could be bought? |

I don't know how or where it's cultivated but I love eating it like ki lode. It's very costly in the market but the damn meal na balm. 1 Like |

Adeeko007: Thanks Adeeko007. Problem is that it appears 90% of supplies still depend on the old way - happenstance. |

Primegold: I have been contacting those l worked with years back around Nsukka-Adani-Omasi region but none seem to still have the contact of the guy who showed us around his ukwa nursery and this was way back 2009! I will still be on it to get you a link to the seedlings, on lighter note you have provoked my tongue to salivate as it has been long l tasted ukwa. Food for thought....'If a man plants ten breadfruit trees in his life, which he can do in about an hour, he would completely fulfil his duty to his own as well as future generations'. |
