Abstract: A black pepper trellis system. A method of growing black pepper plants is described including constructing a continuous trellis system including vertical and horizontal vine support lines, where the vertical lines are up to 5 meters high and are up to 50 centimeters apart, covering up to 20 acres of soil or more, and growing pepper vines up and across the vertical and horizontal lines, resulting in a dense hedgerow of pepper plants and enhanced black pepper yield per acre. The trellis system and black pepper per acre produced by the above system processes is also described.
