High Density planting in appleHigh Density planting in apple High density planting (HDP) means to increase the plant population per unit area for increasing the production of fruit crops. Instead, growers have to maintain tree size through cultural practices, like pruning or adjusting the spacing between trees. HIGH DENSITY PLANTING •Pioneered for temperate fruits in Europe. High density orchards are precocious, easily manageable, has higher yield potential, with better quality fruits and higher returns/unit area.

Using the high-density method, growers plant up to 400 avocado trees per acre on 10-foot by 10-foot blocks per tree - about four times the usual 110 trees per acre they plant on 20-foot by 20-foot blocks. High density plantation helped to get significantly higher yield per unit area compared to the normal spacing, without affecting size and quality of mango fruits. endobj The shorter trees can be picked from the ground - no need to use ladders - which makes harvesting faster and easier.
