A detailed study by Campbell (1987) of three areas in the Zimbabwean Communal Lands, shows considerable differences between these areas in terms of land tenure and human and tree population densities. However, from the small-scale commercial farming area of Ziyambe, where population pressure is least, to the more densely populated Chiweshe Communal area, the frequency of wild fruit consumption is the same. The most widely used species are: Diospyros mespiliformis, Strychnos cocculoides and Azanza garckeana. In the Mbozi area of south western Tanzania, Knight (1974:76) identifies a distinct land type which he calls Parinari curatellifolia woodland. In this area, Uapaca kirkiana and P. curatellifolia have been spared by farmers whilst converting woodland to farmland. Over time these have become, along with introduced mango, the only trees left in an otherwise intensively cultivated and populated area.
