Description
Beyond technical skill, this program embodies a mission — to transform how the Philippines and the world cultivate agarwood. By enabling scalable and controlled propagation, tissue culture bridges the gap between conservation, commercial demand, and the ethical stewardship of endangered species.
Under the guidance of experts in plant physiology, biotechnology, and perfumery crop development, participants gain hands-on experience in sterile techniques, culture media formulation, explant preparation, growth regulation, and laboratory workflow design. They learn not just how to propagate agarwood, but how to integrate biotechnology into sustainable plantation systems and high-value aromatic supply chains.
This course empowers learners to become part of a scientific movement — a movement that protects biodiversity, strengthens agro-industrial futures, and advances the frontiers of natural products research.
The Biotechnological Propagation Techniques of Agarwood™ Course isn’t just training.
It is a gateway to innovation, conservation, and industry transformation.
It is where future labs begin, where future forests take root,
and where science becomes a bridge between heritage and possibility.
