Pongamia pinnata, also known as the Indian Beech Tree, is a fast-growing deciduous tree known for its resilience and oil-rich seeds. It reaches up to 20 meters and produces fragrant flowers that attract pollinators. Pongamia is drought-tolerant and valued in agroforestry for its nitrogen-fixing properties, which enrich the soil. Its seeds are a source of biofuel, adding ecological and economic value.
