Dear group mates and experts, I'm having a query regarding arecanut cultivation..
I want to plant areca in a coconut farm. My query is that can I plant arecanut saplings in a square format.. That is in one pit can I plant 4 saplings at a distance of 3 ft apart..?
As of my knowledge areca trees root grows horizontally upto 2ft.
If I implement this cluster method, I can increase the number of plants per acre.. Cluster to cluster distance is 10 ft.. So can it be implemented.?
Plz do reply
 

At a distance of 3 ft you can plant an Areca Sappling. Crop Yield quantity may be reduced and Yield Time may be late. To counter these two factors Ensure:
1) To Plant Best Quality Areca Breed.
2) Best Quality Fertilizer
3) Appropriate Watering.
