Study on the efficiency of vetiver grass in comparison with contour bank was conducted in the Khao Hin Sorn Royal Development Study Centre. The design was randomized complete block with 3 replications and treatments. The treatments were (1) Ploughing up and down slope (2) Ploughing across the slope (3) Ploughing across the slope with 2 contour banks (4) Ploughing across the slope with 2 rows of vetiver grass (5) Ploughing across the slope with 3 rows of vetiver grass. The results from the first year study showed that treatment 3 gave the best in reducing soil loss and water run off but there were not differences in crop yield. In the second year results treatment 4 and 5 showed the efficiency in reducing soil loss and water run off as well as treatment 3.
