Arenga microcarpa, also known aren sagu or Sagu Baruk, is a perennial densely clumping palm native to the Moluccas and Papua New Guinea and cultivated in open lowland areas in northern Australia and Indonesia.[1][2][3]
The palm grows to 7 meters. It has dark glossy green leaves with whitish undersides and small red fruit.[1]
The Sagu Baruk palm is cultivated on the Talaud and Sangihe Islands for extraction of starch from the pith.[2] It is reported that Sagu flour is the primary food source for 88% of the Sangihe Island population.[4]
