Gaharu Integration With Oil Palm

I had planted 10 gaharu trees in between my 4 years old oil palm. The integration started quite well.

Gaharu or agarwood (aloeswood, eaglewood) is a resinous, fragrant and highly valuable heartwood of Aquilaria species from the Thymelaeceae family. There are altogether 16 species of Aquilaria. The different species was found in different country.

However, the best known species that produce the gaharu resin are Aquilaria malaccensis and Aquilaria crassna. A. crassna is an evergreen tree of medium-size and can reach to a height of 15- 20m and a diameter at breast height of 40-50cm [1].
