Harvesting Process

Asafoetida is harvested by tapping the root of Ferula plants:

  1. Mature plants are located in mountainous/wild regions.

  2. The stem is cut and the gum exudes slowly.

  3. Collection continues for several days.

  4. Gum tears are dried naturally under shade.

  5. Product is sorted, graded, and packed for export.

This process is entirely manual and labor-intensive, making Iranian Hing one of the most valuable natural gums in the region.
