<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of artificial nutrient formulations and inoculum Fusarium sp., to produce agarwood in Aquilaria malaccensis Lamk., using the infusion method. This study used 3 types of treatment, namely, P1 inoculum formulation (artificial nutrition + Fusarium sp.), P2 formulation (artificial nutrition + Fusarium sp. fermentation) and P3 formulation (artificial nutrition + Fusarium sp. + fermented A. malaccensis Lamk sawdust) and formulation P4 was Fusarium sp. inoculum along with organic nutrients as control. The study was conducted on farmer's agroforestry land in Soppeng Regency, BaraE Village, South Sulawesi, using the induction infusion method in which 12 holes were drilled, 10 cm apart from each hole in a spiral pattern. The depth of each hole is 1/3 the diameter of the rod. Infusion was given after 3 months of inoculation with observation parameters such as area of infection, color change and aroma level. The results showed that the P2 formulation formed the area of agarwood infection with an average of 10.06 cm2. The organoleptic result for color change which showed a score of 3 out of 6 panelists was the P3 formulation, while the aroma level showed a score of 3 (very fragrant) out of 7 panelists, namely the P4 formulation. The results of this study concluded that the P3 formulation has the potential to provide better agarwood formation, the P4 formulation for the level of aroma and the extent of infection by the P2 formulation]]>
