⚙️ Terrace System Parameters

Terrace Configuration

Total number of flat growing terraces in the system
Width of each flat terrace for vegetation/crops
Vertical height of each 45° slope (connects terraces)
Length of terraces for calculating cultivation area

Vetiver Parameters

Spacing between vetiver rows along slope surface (45° slopes)
Horizontal spacing between plants along each row
Cost per vetiver slip
Typical range: 2-3 m³/ton of harvested biomass

💡 System Design:

• All slopes are 45 degrees (equal height and horizontal width)

• Terraces separated by vetiver-stabilized slopes

• Initial mulch: 0.7 kg per plant annually

• Mature yield: 1 ton per 30cm × 100m strip, 3 cuts/year

• Drawing updates automatically when you change values!
