What does RAMTIL mean in Scrabble?
noun
botany
An African oil plant, Guizotia abyssinica, grown mainly in India for its edible seed oil.
Ramtil is cultivated across parts of India and East Africa for the small black seeds it produces, which are pressed into a cooking oil and also used in birdseed mixes. The plant belongs to the daisy family and grows tall stalks topped with small yellow flowers. Because the oil is a minor crop outside South Asia, ramtil rarely appears in ordinary conversation and stays mostly within farming and trade contexts.
