Plant population refers to the NUMBER of plants per unit area of land. Plant spacing, on the other hand, refers to the ARRANGEMENT of plants on the area planted.
To calculate the indicator's value, sum up the entire weight of the harvest and divide it by the total size of land. For example, 4,500 tons of rice divided by 1,500 hectares = yield of 3 tons per hectare.
For a square bed, multiply the length of the bed by its width to determine how many plants per square foot. For a circular planting bed, you can calculate how many plants per square foot is ideal by multiplying 3.14 by the distance from the center to the edge of the bed.
DA-PhilRice recommends 40kg per hectare for transplanted rice while 60-80kg per hectare is promoted for direct-seeded. “When this is followed, rice plants grow healthier because it can receive sufficient sunlight and evenly absorb nutrients from the soil.
A native, mixed woodland could contain around 1,600 trees per hectare, as these larger species will need to be well spaced to allow for their broad mature canopy, while a 'tiny forest' will be planted much more densely.
