The term mine is to inject / inoculate a natural bacterial liquid into a tree trunk to trigger the formation of a hardwood clump called Agarwood.
The selling price for super-class agarwood can penetrate hundreds of millions / kilogram or can also be sold in the form of oil agarwood extraction.
The reason that makes me and the team do business 'mine' in natural tree that still exist in Aceh.
We made observations especially in the areas of East Aceh and North Aceh. There are about a thousand tree-producing trees in five different locations with diverse tree ages.
I found a tree that grows over 70 years. Its diameter does not reach the hug by an adult, as in the photo.
I think the story project mining 'black gold' I have to write in some parts. Ranging from the offer of cooperation with private parties and universities from Malaysia to exploit the business potential of gaharu trees in Aceh.
