	36. Dovyalis, a form of gooseberry, is planted along the fence lines.

The 3000 dovyalis cuttings planted by Sebastian will grow up around the posts and fencing to form an impenetrable bramble thicket along the fence line within 2 years, creating a permanent barrier to intrusion by animals that would threaten the mpingos planted within - Dec. 1998.
