AGRO FOOD FARMS PLANTAINS SPACING

SPACING  

The recommended spacing is 3m between the plantain rows and 2m within the row. In our farms we made a 3m x 3m spacing because the French variety is so tall and the leaves are longer than other varieties. Given this spacing, a hectare in our farms took 1112 suckers and the entire 50 hectares took 55,600 suckers.
