Vetiver Systems Technology (VST) Applications for farmland restoration, land conservation, food security, and sustainable livelihoods for farmers in St. Vincent’s North Leeward Orange Zone

The overall project goal is to improve the lives of farmers through farmland soil regeneration using a praxis that fosters environmental and community resilience, sustainable recovery and protection of farmlands from the impact of natural disasters. Vetiver System Technology would be introduced into farm systems to stimulate groundwater retention, land stabilization and improve soil microbiome to positively impact crop yield and land integrity for the future
