【产地分布】：非洲大陆、北美部分地区和马达加斯加岛
【用途】：猴面包树，全身都是药。果实、叶子和树皮都能入药，可以消炎、退热、治疟疾。它的果实、叶子和树皮均可入药，具有养胃利胆、清热消肿、止血止泻和镇静安神的功效。当地人还喜欢将其的花、叶捣碎涂抹于身体，具有纤体美肤奇效
【经济价值】：当地人还喜欢将其的花、叶捣碎涂抹于身体，具有纤体美肤奇效。Henacl的研究学者在发现其这种独有的特性之后开发出世界第一款纤体霜。树皮里还含有丰富的纤维素，可以造纸、织席和制绳以及乐器的弦，很早以前人们还用它来制作粗布。
猴面包树的木质又轻又软，完全没有木材利用价值。但有趣的是，当地居民常把树干的中间掏空，搬进去居住，形成一种非常别致的大自然“村舍”。也有的居民将掏空的树干作为畜栏或贮水室、储藏室。令人感到奇怪的是，在猴面包树洞里贮存食物，可以放置很长时间而不腐烂、变质。
【旅游价值】：马达加斯加岛观赏猴面包树最著名的景点是位于 岛西部距离首都700多公里左右的穆隆达瓦地区，驱车先南下途经安齐拉贝再拐向西到芒里瓦褚镇，从该镇开始路况变得颠簸崎岖，雨季期间（每年的12月到3月上旬），一般只有四驱越野车方能通行，交通巴士也有，但是剩下不到300公里的路还需要行车约10个小时，路况可见一斑了。
它曾为很多在热带草原上旅行的人们提供了救命之水，解救了因干渴而生命垂危的旅行者，因此又被称为“生命之树”。在沙漠旅行，如果口渴，不必动用“储备”，只需用小刀在随处可见的猴面包树的肚子上挖一个洞清泉便喷涌而出，这时就可以拿着缸子接水畅饮一番了。猴面包树与生命同在，只要有猴面包树，在沙漠里旅行就不必担心。
