HA NOI (VNS)- The macadamia plant can be a good choice for farmers in the north-western and Central Highland regions seeking to improve their income, said experts at a seminar in Ha Noi.
The macadamia nut is dubbed the “the Queen of Nuts” for its outstanding nutritional value. Experts said that compared to other common edible seeds such as almond and cashew, macadamia is high in fat and low on protein. They have the highest amount of mono-unsaturated fats of any known seed.
The plant, indigenous to Australia, was introduced to Viet Nam in 2002 for trial cultivation by Former Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Cong Tan. Local scientists have tested and found that the north-western and Central Highland regions have conditions best suited for the plant.
