Space before scale
How many could fit?
Gross square-grid estimate using the selected tree’s planning spacing. This assumes a single-crop block.
Reserve additional space for paths, irrigation, buildings and boundaries. This is not a mixed-farm layout. Dragon fruit count is poles, with 4 plants per pole.
Before planting
A good beginning matters.
- Test soil and borewell water; mark wet spots and drainage outlets.
- Use mature manure, keep graft unions above ground, mulch clear of trunks and stake gently.
- Plant when useful rain and irrigation are available; avoid flooded pits and extreme summer heat.
- Keep large timber crowns away from sun-loving fruit trees. Do not use one spacing for every species.
- Match annual fertilizer doses to soil tests, tree age and yield; nursery-stage doses are not mature-tree schedules.
