Figure 18.—A, Shows terrace construction for a vanilla planting. Dwarf bucare is used for support and for a small mulch-retaining fence around the base of the plants. Four support stumps and four vanilla cuttings are planted to give larger crops at an earlier date. Planting distance is 9 by 9 feet. B, Recently constructed individual terraces about 3 feet deep by 4 feet wide. Note plantains planted previously to provide cash return and initial shade for the vanilla until the bucare completely develops. Terraces catch and hold additional water during relatively dry periods. Land slope is about 35 percent. Carpet grass is encouraged in the drainage ditches to reduce soil erosion. Mulch may be spread over entire terrace during dry season to conserve moisture. It is not wise to plant vanilla cuttings in depression of terrace due to excessive moisture in rainy season.
