Acacia senegal (L.) Willdenow or Acacia seyal (Fam. Leguminosae) is an important species, the source of gum Arabic is found in the desert state of Rajasthan, especially in arid western Rajasthan. It’s habitats in arid western Rajasthan included rocky hills, sandy plains, sandy hummock and sand dunes. It is commonly an under canopy tree which generally attains a height of 4.5 to 8.0 m. After repeated trials and error, ICAR-CAZRI, Jodhpur standardized the dose of Ethephon treatment of A. senegal trees for enhanced recovery of gum Arabic. The present study deals with CAZRI developed gum Arabic production technology; and gum production pattern, effect of management practices coupled with CAZRI gum inducer treatment on gum Arabic production in rocky land form, gum production from A. senegal in relation to tree basal area, temperature vs. gum yield, gum Arabic production from different land forms in arid zone, and extension and adoption of CAZRI gum exudation technology. From the data obtained through various experimentations and regarding adoption of technology clearly indicated that the species can be source of additional income for the millions of people in arid and semi-arid regions of India, if it is explored scientifically for gum tapping through the technique developed by ICAR-Central Arid Zone Research Institute, Jodhpur, India.
