The Salvation Army in Australia contributing funds in 2006 to an agricultural project in central China. Professor Xu Li-yu of the Chines Vetiver Network held training sessions in several villages about soil and water conservation. Villagers planted vetiver grass in rows along the barren slopes of a hillside, along with chestnut and some mulberry trees. New tea bushes were planted in a field previously used for wheat.

Are parts of this grass (root/stem) etc. used as an ingredient in the Khus lassi (yoghurt) popular in North India? --Das

I'm not sure if the correct genus of vetiver is Chrysopogon or Vetiveria, being zizanioides the specific epithet for both. Can you help me to find a refference to truly say that Chrysopogon is the correct genus? This is because in spanish Wikipedia, the 'correct' genus is Vetiveria. And about the alleged synonym (Vetiveria zizanioides), how can a genus that has another species inside be a synonym of other genus' species?

I question this addition. It appears to have been written by a child; I can't check the source (it's in hebrew); the researcher in question lists no such paper on his own site; and the place he works--the Volcani Center--has nothing to do with volcanoes, as is suggested by this entry. I recommend deletion.
"Fuel cleaning A recent study, made in the volcanic institute in Israel, by Dr. Nativ Dudai found out that the plant is capable of growing in a fuel-contaminated ground. In addition to that, the study discovered that the plant is also able to clean the ground, so in the end, the soil is almost fuel-free.[9]"
