Vetiver (Vetiveria zizanoides) is a densely tufted, perennial clump grass with stiff leaf bases which overlap. It forms narrow, dense hedges when planted along the contours of sloping land, slowing down run-off and helping the water soak into the soil rather than washing off the slope. Vetiver has been used for thousands of years as mulch, thatch grass, and fodder and for brooms and paper pulp. The roots of vetiver grass have been used to weave mats, screens, or fans; for medicinal purposes; and as insect repellents. Its major commercial use has been the extraction of a complex volatile oil from its roots. The Vetiver Nursery in NSW Australia grows and sells Vetiver grass (Monto) for soil erosion, sewage water treatment and many other uses Vetiver Grass Nurseries. Vetiver grass can be supplied by "commercially " operated nurseries or from existing plant material from a vetiver protected site. In either case good quality plant material must be provided. The following actions should be undertaken to assure good quality supplies: VetiverSpain provides erosion solutions. We are Certified suppliers of a unique grass system called Vetiver, (Chrysopogon Zizanioides variety Monto.) It is a non invasive sterile grass that is used to fight erosion. It has a very strong vertical root system. Vetiver is great for environmental planning. Vetiveria zizanioides (vetiver grass) is an evergreen, gramineous, and perennial herb, and its appearance is similar to that of lemongrass.Vetiveria zizanioides can prevent soil erosion and is also helpful in rehabilitating metal-polluted soil. In addition, V. zizanioides has also been cultivated for the production of commercially and medically valued essential oil (VZ EO). Vetiver, a deeply rooted grass with tall stems and long thin leaves is considered very effective in controlling coastal erosion in Vanuatu. The Department of Agriculture (DoA), through the Vanuatu Coastal Adaptation Project (VCAP), is introducing vetiver grass to communities to prevent soil erosion from upper land polluting polluting marine lives. physiological characteristics, Vetiver grass has become the choice species for phytoremediation of both water and land contaminated by both inorganic and organic pollutants Although Vetiver is relatively highly tolerant to salinity as compared with some common crop and pasture species, its effectiveness in phytoremediation is sometimes Vetiver grass is a densely tufted bunch grass which can be easily established in both tropics and temperate regions of the world. It plays a vital role in watershed protection by slowing down and spreading runoff harmlessly on the farmland, recharging ground water, reducing siltation of drainage systems and water bodies, reducing agro-chemicals loading into water bodies and for rehabilitation ...
