The Cashew Tree of Pirangi (Cajueiro de Pirangi), also called the world's largest cashew tree (maior cajueiro do mundo), is a cashew tree in Pirangi do Norte, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil.[1] In 1994, the tree entered the Guinness Book of Records.[1] It covers an area between Шаблон:Convert[2] and Шаблон:Convert.[3] Having the size of 70 normally sized cashew trees,[3][4] it has a circumference of Шаблон:Convert.[4] The vicinity of the World's Largest Cashew Tree in North Pirangi is also a main place for the sale of lace and embroidery in Rio Grande do Norte state.[5]

The spread over a hectare of land was, unlike other trees, created by the tree's outward growth. When bent towards the ground (because of their weight), the branches tend to take new roots where they touch the ground.[6][7] This may be seen in the images of the interior. It is now difficult to distinguish the initial trunk from the rest of the tree.[8]

The tree is said to have been planted in 1888.[1] However, based on its growth characteristics, "the tree is estimated to be more than a thousand years old."[6] The tree produces over 60,000 fruits each year.[9][10]

Flávio Nogueira, Jr., the state secretary of tourism for Piauí, has claimed that another cashew tree in the municipality of Cajueiro da Praia in Piauí is, in fact, the largest tree, covering an area of Шаблон:Convert. That tree was studied by a laboratory from the State University of Piauí.[11]
