Agarwood tree age & size to be artificially induced.


Location: Poum, Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan.
This wild tree is 20 cm. cbh was traditionally induced by artificial wound done by native aborigines. Note that dark spots are where the xylem already started producing oleoraisin. This is an example of how big & how old can the agarwood plant be artificially induced and possibly being naturally infected by fungi and microbes.
