Opuntia Ficus-indica
The Opuntia ficus-indica (Prickly Pear Cactus) is a fast-growing plant that can reproduce at a rapid rate. Grown in many Mediterranean regions for its fruits, it requires frequent pruning to contain its exuberant growing. This pruning produces a considerable amount of agricultural waste that can be used in a variety of promising applications.
