The use of vegetation for preventing and controlling erosion for slope stabilization has being practiced throughout the world.

This soft approach of stabilizing slope confers numerous advantages, including high biodiversity, low maintenance, self-sustainability as well as being environmental-friendly. There are various conventional methods used to improve stability of slope, they all have merit and demerit, but the use of vegetation has other advantages as mentioned above plus root do not corrode, they are self-repairing, regenerating and adaptive.
