Allanblackia stuhlmannii is a type of flowering plant. It belongs to the Clusiaceae family. This tree is special because it is found only in Tanzania, a country in East Africa.

Uses of the Allanblackia Tree

The seeds of the Allanblackia stuhlmannii tree are very useful. They contain an edible oil. People living in Tanzania have used this oil for a long time. In the past, this oil was even exported as a business run by the government [1].

Today, there are plans to use this oil on a larger scale around the world [2]. Companies are working to create a system for this. The hope is that by making money from products like this oil, local people will see the value of their forests. This can encourage them to help protect these important natural resources [3].
