Para uso en cofeccion de artesanias o extraccion de semillas para proposito de siembra.Las semillas de algarrobo, de las que hay hasta siete por capsula, se usan para artesanías y fueron populares para hacer gallitos. Luego de barrenar y atar la semilla, los participantes tomaban turnos para golpear su gallito con el del oponente. La pelea terminaba cuando una de las semillas se rompía. Las victorias se heredaban, por lo que los triunfos acumulados por el gallito perdedor se sumaban a las del vencedor. En Sudamerica las semillas son dispersadas por varios animales, particularmente por el roedor llamado agutí.
