Details

Data from an experiment provided by F. Chadron for a first ratoon crop at Rio Piedras Agricultural Experiment Station.

Field width: 20 "sections" * 10 feet = 200 feet.

Field length: 20 rows, spaced about 4 feet apart = 80 feet.

Weight in pounds per plot

Note: Love does not give the distance between the rows, but "Soil Survey of Puerto Rico" says furrows are planted about 4 feet apart.
