Pulping characteristics of Melia azedarach (Red Bakain) grown in NWFP were determined. The results of the study reveal that Melia azedarach wood may be pulped by Kraft process. At 15 percent active alkali and 25 percent sulphidity, yield of the pulp was about 50.3 percent. As far as strength properties were concerned, at 66 SRo (Schopper Regiler), Breaking Length of the paper was recorded 6181 km. These results clearly indicate that pulp industry can use Melia azedarach wood for Kraft pulping in the country.
