Sandalwood - The Story of Sandalwood in Western Australia

Australian Sandalwood is a unique native tree crop,
grown for its high value aromatic heartwood, with potential
to generative income from the oil rich nuts. Well
adapted to wheatbelt conditions, sandalwood plantations
can aid in managing agricultural risk through
diversification and contribute towards reducing salinity
and erosion in wheatbelt farming systems.

I really believe that Sandalwood will thrive and become more recognized for all of its wonderful properties and benefits. I am grateful that mother nature has given such a diverse plant to us. I am using skin care products derived from Sandalwood and have fallen in love with the scent, its healing properties and I feel like i am just more calm when i smell sandalwood.

[@mobiprofitstrategies]

Glad you've discovered the many wonderful benefits of sandalwood. See my comments above. I think you will be interested in the Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood Oil.

I guess im asking randomly but does someone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.

[@surendersingal2192]

Thank you mom Great education video on sandalwood n its miraculous benefit to environnent.

[@Regosta98]

Just spent the past month and a half picking the seeds in the wheatbelt, so cool to see where these little guys end up!

[@drpk6514]

Test the nuts in a large scale. There is a chance a mutation in the gene regulatory part making the aromatic oil finding its way to the seed. If you could select such trees, you will change the whole industry. The other way is to transform algae and produce the aromatic oil in algae.

I am an amateur sandalwood grower ! It is not easy to grow sandalwood in Taiwan, my trees often knock down in typhoon season !

[@ranjitsinhrathoretheking7572]

Really , White sandalwood trees are very weak to straight stand up in heavy wind .in normal wind it will fall on the land .No doubt if you again stand up it .sure it will live and not dead .it is like rubber and not have a proper catch the land as it's depend other hose plant roots .

My body wash says sandalwood so I researched what sandalwood was and ended up here....🤣🤣

[@zuditaka]

My sandalwood tree seed from the bush tucker people, "Bushfood Australia", has sprouted, okay, here in the Lachlan Valley, NSW. It endured the winter and heavy frosts, here, and came up okay on its own this past spring. It's growing under a gum tree in heavy clay and is sitting amidst a Hardenbergia violacea vine. Seems to be standing the hot dry summer very well. I look forward to it growing into an adult tree with fragrant wood and edible nuts. I'm still waiting for my many quandong seeds to germinate, but they have thicker shells than sandalwood and, thus, take longer to germinate than do sandalwoods. I'll be planting more sandalwood trees from seed in 2016, as they do seem to like it here. ;)

[@ytCendana]

Very nice

[@chrismylonas764]

Another industry that the land might support is vetiver grass. Controls land erosion with the whole plant used in the fragrance industry etc.

[@loopbloke]

This is the red sandalwood, aka raktha chandanam (known for its blood red color) and is abundant in india, esp in Kerala, karnataka region. However, due to increase in demands even this si also becoming more rare.. this grows more like a root. Red sandalwood also smells great but not as good as the real ones. But there is even more rare variety, the original sandalwood that's more aromatic that takes way longer time to grow. A kilo of that could cost $1000 or more.

[@akashkatkar]

What variety

[@letsExplore1116youtubecreator]

I burned sandalwood for 2 weeks now and I love its smell but but don't know what is its benefits to us that's why I am searching for its benefits.

[@vasukinagabhushan]

Burning Sandal is considered holiest in India. That is why we have Sandal Sticks.

Looks like the perfect crop to put between solar panels in the areas that don't grow crops. Solar can be spaced to accomodate trees. Renewable energy + a renewable plant resource is perfect.

How do you wait for 20 years to harvest the crop? Even considering there might be different batches

[@filmationnation9612]

how about using sandalwood chips with rice? I once got rice pilau in an indian restaurant with what I think was sandalwood... tasted almost toffee like, it was really nice.

[@gazpearce3700]

Will be going on your website to ask some questions. Is it legall to produce your own sandalwood on your own property in West Oz, a mate has a 4k acre property a couple hrs from perth or a little longer, and its full of old ones ???

[@michaelomalley9448]

[@randhirnayakavadi4165]

Nice

[@vidyashankara]

the mysore sandalwood has a lot more alpha and beta santanols... Those are the organic compounds that give the fragrance... The australian sandalwood is pretty low quality...

[@ChintanPandya01]

True. That's why they don't say anything about Indian sandalwood

[@user-hn1zb9rk4h]

Australian Sandalwood just has a different Santanol Dharma 🌸

[@shahinsainu1909]

But who can grow Indian Sandalwood for commercial market. It's illegal in India right?

[@ranjitsinhrathoretheking7572]

true Indian sandalwood pure and old

[@smpl1592]

Yes good job its almost extinct

[@shahinsainu1909]

It's virtually extinct and the fact that it's illegal for anyone to grow and harvest for themselves. In India no one is allowed to make a business out of Sandalwood. Even if someone does, they have little benefits.

[@jamesmcashan1]

the usual crime: this project uses our resources to grow useless stink bush, to avoid growing wild food trees. i have studied herbs and biology for 40 years, including complex system effects. the aromatics contain poison alchohols (antimicrobials) that keep wood dry and resist rot, but edible food plants have that also. you can plant fruit and nut trees anyywhere, especially near people, who are starving and dying in some areas. we have 6 billion people to feed. - james mcashan for the US Senate

[@iloveamericagodbless6512]

That ugly background music is to distract us from the evil these Australians are doing. Sandalwood means we preserve the wood for its fragrance. We don’t destroy any part of this tree including the sends for its oil. You’ll have to get the India wood carvers from Karnataka to carve each branch and twig and nut. DO NOT DESTROY the tree or it’s parts for its oil.
