Agarwood FAQs cover cultivation, regulations, and affiliate promotion for your PH site on lapnisan (Aquilaria) and hardwoods.​

Common Questions

• What is agarwood? Fragrant resinous heartwood from injured Aquilaria trees, used for oud oil, incense, and perfumes—highly valuable in PH exports.​
• Can Filipinos grow it legally? Yes, with DENR Wildlife Culture Permit; wild collection banned, but farm propagation allowed via registered seedlings.​
• How long to harvest? 5-10 years post-inoculation on farms (faster than wild); plant in rainy season, space 3x3m, pH 5.5-6.5 soil.​

Cultivation Basics

• Site/Soil: Tropical, humid areas; well-drained loamy soil, partial shade—mulch and fertilize organically.​
• Induction: Wound trunks and inoculate fungi after 3-5 years for resin formation.​
• Regulations: CITES-listed; get permits for seeds, transport, harvest—consult DENR for PH compliance.​
