Twenty five year old tree prepared for market. This wood will bring 1000vatu per kilo or about 10USD per kilo (2.2lbs). Smaller younger trees bring 600-700 vatu per kilo. The wood is processed to yield sandal wood oil.

Logger with a days work of wild foraged sandal wood. Good money can be made in the short 3 month open season. Forward thinkers are planting trees for the future and this may make them rich men in 15 to 20 years.


Scales keepers/buyers.
