Prosopis juliflora, an evergreen xerophytic tree, grows well in a variety of soil types and climates. It was brought to India in 1876 to colonise dry terrains due to its endurance to drought, submergence, and salt, as well as its strong coppicing ability, and it has since expanded to many parts of India, covering approximately 20 lakh hectares. One of the worst invaders in India, P. juliflora was thought to be harming local biodiversity and natural habitats.
