Vetiver: The Miracle Grass |Stuart Nicholson. 

Using the Vetiver Grass Technology to Protect Shorelines |Golabi. 

This document discusses how Vetiver grass systems can be used to protect water resources from sedimentation and pollution. It details how hedges of Vetiver grass can slow down runoff, trap sediment, and increase soil shear strength. It also provides case studies from Guam and Vietnam. 

Soil Bioengineering Using Vetiver for Climate-Adaptive Slope Repair: Review by Avipriyo Chakraborty and Sadik Khan. Published in Natural Hazards Review, this paper reviews the use of vetiver as a tool for landslide mitigation in the context of climate change.

Exploring The Mechanism Of Vetiver System For Slope Reinforcement On Diverse Soil Types – A Review by Hidayati et al. (2023). This review paper investigates the application of the Vetiver System for slope stabilization, highlighting the role of the plant's massive root system in increasing soil shear strength and reducing landslide risk. 

The Vetiver Network International (TVNI) promotes the worldwide use of the Vetiver System (VS) for a sustainable environment particularly in relation to land and water. At a time of climate change challenge vetiver grass has an important role to play in regenerative agriculture and soil carbon creation.
