Vetiver Grass Technology in Fiji from 1956-1986. John Greenfield Revisits (with Swahili subtitles) Vetiver Grass - TVNI Webinar & Video Channel 2023-12-25 | This video produced in 1986 represents an important point of time when the "modern" development of the technology was initiated. John Greenfield recommended that vetiver grass technology be used in India for soil and water conservation. Before introducing it to World Bank financed Watershed Development Projects in India, he went back to Fiji to see how vetiver grass hedgerows had performed from the time they were planted (when he worked for the Fiji Sugar Corporation) 30 years previously,in the 1950s and 60s. He came back with this video that was convincing enough to start a program in the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu. This video and the subsequent applications that resulted from the Fijian experience led to the revival of the technology and introduction and use by thousands of users through out the tropics and semiarid areas of the world. More at www.vetiver.org. Note the video is part in Hindi and part English with no subtitles.The video includes an on site discussion with the farmer about the performance and benefits of the vetiver hedge; a demonstration of surveying a contour line for the vetiver hedgerow, and the preparation and planting of the vetiver. There is a second part at the end that shows some of the wider applications of vetiver in Fiji - comprises photos narrated by John Greenfield. We thank Odda Howard for arranging the Swahili subtitles

Karnataka, India - Contour cultivation and Vetiver key lines. Their impact in a drought year (1987). Vetiver Grass - TVNI Webinar & Video Channel 2023-12-09 | During the 1980s and early 90s the World Bank and its soil conservation team led by John Greenfield (agronomist par excellence) in New Delhi, working in partnership with Indian colleagues in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu in support of watershed development, put a good deal of emphasis on insitu moisture conservation through contour cultivation and vetiver grass hedgerows, the latter as key lines and protection against extreme rainfall events. The 1987 monsoon season (Kharif) was a failure and for many farmers a drought. Those, as shown in this video, who cultivated on the contour were spared crop losses. It is a lesson that should be noted by all those farmers who are effected by potential drought. Contour cultivation is a just a change in management and costs nothing. It is surprising how many farmers still do not follow the practice of contour cultivation. With climate change, crop survival will benefit on it, along with all the other benefits.

El subproducto que se genera (compost) se ha reciclado con éxito en agricultura y en jardinería.The Vetiver Biofilter System (VBS) is a waste recovery technique based on the incorporation of vetiver (Chrysopogon zizanioides (L) Roberty) into the methodology previously called “Extended Biological Aeration Filter” used for industrial waste treatment in Venezuela. VBS has been in uninterrupted use for more than 23 years in some industries. It has been used for odor control, processing of brewery sewage sludge, degradation of products unfit for human and animal consumption and their environmentally safe disposal, also in wastewater treatment as an alternative to conventional treatment. Compost, which is a by-product of VBS, is subsequently used in agriculture and gardening.

The Keyline Vetiver Hedges provide a backbone and template for small (minimum 1 ha) and big farms (any size) that allows them to tap on the true productive potential of their farm under management. This presentation discusses a minimum standard for Keyline Vetiver Hedges, which is under continuous improvement and revision, and wishes to provide to the broader vetiver international community a set of steps forward to further collaborate and iterate versions of this suggested standardization. This minimum standard has been elaborated as one of the main projects for the Sustainable Tobacco Program in collaboration with Nueva Matacapan Tobaccos S.A., a very important cigar company in the Tuxtlas region that exports premium cigar wrapper to international tobacco companies worldwide.Estampa Verde ha estado trabajando con la Escala de Permanencia en Keyline (P.A.Yeomans, Australia, 1958) y el Sistema Vetiver en áreas tropicales de México para proporcionar una tecnología de código abierto para los agricultores que les permita reducir los riesgos climáticos y aumentar los rendimientos, capturando carbono a través de prácticas agrícolas regenerativas. Los setos de Vetiver en Keyline proporcionan una columna vertebral y una plantilla para fincas pequeñas (mínimo 1 ha) y grandes (cualquier tamaño) que les permite aprovechar el verdadero potencial productivo de su finca bajo manejo. El documento proporciona la primera versión de un estándar mínimo para la práctica agronómica de establecimiento del Sistema Vetiver en Keyline, la cual se encuentra en constante mejora y revisión, y desea brindar a la comunidad internacional de vetiver en general un conjunto de pasos a seguir para colaborar más e iterar versiones de esta estandarización sugerida. Este estándar mínimo ha sido elaborado como uno de los principales proyectos del Programa de Tabaco Sustentable en colaboración con Nueva Matacapan Tobaccos S.A., una empresa de tabaco de alta especialidad muy importante en la región de Tuxtlas que exporta materia prima de calidad premium a empresas tabacaleras internacionales en todo el mundo.

Vetiver Grass - A friend of Human Beings Vetiver Grass - TVNI Webinar & Video Channel 2023-01-10 | Recent scientific researches have found that vetiver grass has the magical function of eliminating the rice stem borers, thus protecting the rice from the harm of the borers, and reducing the use of pesticides. So, it can protect the ecological environment and increase the safety of foods. In order to make this latest research achievement known to the general public, especially for children, we have edited it into a children's popular science play. In the play, some children dress up as stem borers, which harm rice; others dress up as vetiver grass, showing the magical mechanism and efficacy controlling insects. As a result, the borers developed toxic symptoms and were poisoned to death, which were all eventually punished. The children's performances are lively and innocent, which better show the core contents of the play and is good for VS education and dissemination especially for children.

The projects combined vetiver system with agroforestry technology, focused on farmers’ income generation, food production, andenvironmental protection. Therefore, the projects were welcomed by farmers and local governments. In details, the projects included economic tree planting (fruit trees, chestnut, mulberry, sasanqua, loquat, pear, etc.); irrigation facility (ponds, pumping stations); animal raising (cattle,goat), bio-gas establishment; vetiver living hedge for erosion control and vetiver-economic tree alley cropping; farmers’ companies to contract projects (railway, mine tail); technical trainings at different levels to improve farmers‘ knowledge; vetiver handicraft trainings (started by three Thai technicians from ORPDB as trainers); Altogether Total 12 courses were organized. Each course lasted 14 days, with 310 participants in total. Through project implementation, farmers’ income was increased, rural environment was protected, and farmers knowledge was improved, which will play a long term impact in the large mountains.
