7. Aquilaria
• Agarwood is a precious resinous wood forming in Aquilaria trees,
native to the Southeast Asia region. The dark resin is formed as an
antibody for healing after injury or fungus infection. The agarwood is
widely used in perfume and cosmetic industry, and religious
activities.
• Agarwood trees are registered as an endangered species by CITES
due to its precious value, causing illegal wood smuggling.
• Thailand has been recognized worldwide as a source of premium
quality agarwood; however, most of agarwood supply is derived
from wild cutting or illegal logging.
• In respect of tree conservation, the concept of Aquilaria
plantations was initially developed in Thailand, with inoculation
techniques, capable to provide premium quality agarwood
comparable to the wild source.

8. Our Plantations
 All AFM plantations are located in Trat province,
next to the Cambodian border providing perfect
growing conditions of agarwood inoculation.
 60 plantations currently able to supply more
than 60,000 trees and the inoculated trees

 Trat is also known as the ‘Fruit capital’ of the
world. The 380 kilometer stretched forest
grounds, the very fertile soil and the rainy climate
make Trat the most perfect place for our
plantations. The best Agar oil from Thailand
comes from this region. Trat is situated near the
Cambodian border.
