Harvesting is done by cutting the tree barks to bleed, then the drops, known as tears, are then collected in sacks of about 25 kgs and sorted to get rid of the impurities. This is done mostly in the months of April and October. Processed frankincense oil is packed in bottles starting from 50Ml to 1000 Ml.
