New uses for Areca Catechu tree

ABSTRACT The Areca catechu tree has been cultivated in large quantities and is widely planted in the mountains. In the modern world, its connection with oral cancer has reduced consumption. The felled trunks discarded in the hills caused an additional burden on the local environment. The most effective use is to grow ornamental plants. When betel trunks are used for planting the irrigation nutrients will not flow out quickly. When the root of the plant is gradually extended, the humus fibre of the trunk is closely combined with the root and forms an excellent planting environment. Other reuse ideas about the sheath proposed with specific light shadows with a unique texture. An adhesive was utilized to combine wood sheets into block material and further process into everyday products. The particulars of the materials, examples of application, and the possibility of cultural design applications were discussed.
