How to use it
- Enter field length and width.
- Enter row spacing and within-row plant spacing using the same unit.
- Calculate complete rows, positions and density.
Plant Spacing Calculator
Estimate a rectangular planting layout using one consistent length unit.
About the Plant Spacing Calculator
Estimate how many complete rows and equally spaced planting positions fit inside a rectangular field.
Calculation logic
Rows and positions use the whole-number floor of dimension divided by spacing. Density divides total estimated positions by field area in square meters.
Example
A 20 m by 10 m field with 0.75 m rows and 0.3 m plant spacing fits 13 complete rows and 66 complete positions per row.
Notes
The estimate excludes headlands, borders, irregular shapes, paths and equipment clearance.
