Once the tree is 5 years plus it is infected with fungus. The process is known as artificial inoculation. The fungus infection inside the tree creates aromatic resin and gradually a resinous wood is produced. Once the tree is selected for harvesting, the trunk is cut down into 2 feet long logs. The logs are then segregated and the sorted infected pieces are dried, white wood is removed, polished and graded in compliance with the market standards. Agarwood is sold as barks, chips, sticks, powder and oil in the global market. Oil is obtained by the delicate process of distillation.
