As a result of overgrazing, as well as poaching for medicinal use, the Argan tree is now considered endangered. Because of this, the Moroccan government has set up several national reserves for the species' protection, most recently one in 2009. In addition to illegal logging, a loss in habitat has weakened populations and made it susceptible to disease.
Appearance The Argan tree can grow from 5-25 m (15–80 ft) tall with a straight trunk bearing dark grey bark. The tree forms very hard wood, similar in strength to the oak but 30% lighter. The tree is valued for its tall straight trunk, which is used for making furniture and barrels; it is also used in the making of musical instruments, especially drums.
