Subject: [permaculture] vetiver system as a possible approach to minimizing gulf oil disaster

Greetings permies-
(Apologies if this info has already been submitted, I live off grid and do
not read each digest).
I have been working with a vetiver farmer in Hawai'i, doing research among
other things, and I came across this document about its use in the Gulf
Region (document created pre-oil spill). Vetiver is an amazing plant, little
known but highly successful in phytoremediation/erosion prevention. I am
curious about what experience other folks might have with it?
