Resin and gum are economically important natural products, contributing 14-23% total household income in parts of Ethiopia and Sudan , Cambodia  and India . They are an important source of raw material for many industries. For instance, in Africa, the genera Boswellia and Commiphora, which provide frankincense and myrrh resins, provide significant income generation and export value . Populations of many species that provide gums and resins are declining under pressure from unsustainable harvesting and deforestation, and climate change may threaten them further.
