Abstract
The Manketti, Mangongo or Mangetti, Schinziophyton rautanenii (Schinz) Radcl.-Sm is an indigenous tree in Namibia, the fruit of which are of significant socio-economic value. The tree occurs in what appears to be even aged groves on deep sand, as part of the dry savanna woodlands. Natural regeneration in the woodland areas seems to be scarce, although some success has been achieved by planting truncheons.
