Galbanum-yielding plants grow plentifully on the slopes of the mountain ranges of northern Iran. 

Galbanum Oil occurs usually in hard or soft, irregular, more or less translucent and shining lumps, or occasionally in separate tears, of a light-brown, yellowish or greenish-yellow colour, and has a disagreeable, bitter taste, a peculiar, somewhat musky odour, an intense green scent, and a specific gravity of 1.212.

Galbanum Oil is an endemic plant in Iran, Ferula gummosa (or galbaniflua) is the only true source of “soft Galbanum.” 
Many other species of Ferula genus also produce gums, but of greatly varying qualities. 

This herbaceous plant of the high-desert regions reproduces only by seed. 
During germination, it develops a deep, filiform root and a stem with two small leaves, which dry in May. 

The plant will only produce vegetation again the following year. 
In the third year, an outgrowth forms on the root collar. 

This growth will be the source of the galbanum gum, from the third to the seventh year. 
Traditional gum gathering is done with a locally made, wrought-iron tool. 

In May-June, when the leaves are dry, the plant’s roots are exposed and the outgrowth is scored. 
A white to straw-yellow resin then leaks out, to slowly solidify upon exposure to the air. 

The gum is collected a few days later. 
Two to three new cuts are made successively on the previous gashes. 
The exudate yield progressively increases with the number of cuts.

Galbanum is a gum-like material (resin) from the roots and trunk of a tree. 
Galbanum Oil is used to make medicine.

People take galbanum for digestion problems, intestinal gas (flatulence), poor appetite, cough, and spasms.
Galbanum is sometimes applied directly to the skin for wounds.

In food and beverages, galbanum oil and resin are used as flavoring.
