Abstract
Makinohara City, located in south-central Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan, is renowned for the production of high quality Japanese green tea. Approximately 25% of Makinohara City's land is used as tea plantation fields and annually 5,800 tonnes of tea is produced.

Based on the author's experience, a number of recommendations are also made for slope analysis and mitigation works.
