| Description |
The use of reliable supports (standards) for the successful establishment of black pepper plantations is a common practice in producing countries. Standards are of two types, living and non-living. The use of non-living (dead) standards (reinforced concrete posts, granite pillars and teak poles), though often resulting higher black pepper yields, is less widely practiced, mainly due to the high capital investment required.Therefore, cultivation of black pepper in producing countries is generally done by trailing the vines on live standards. A variety of trees are used as living standards. |
