How many trees are suitable for planting in one acre of mountainous land, under the premise of rational utilization of land resources, higher mu yield is the goal we are pursuing. As early as 2008, through the national validation of oil tea seed began in some designated areas of experimental planting, from the beginning of the recommended row spacing and plant spacing were 3mX1.5m changed to 3mX2m.

?

After 8 to 10 years, the seedlings of that year have grown into large trees and have entered the blooming period. The height of the tree after the forest is about 2m, and the crown is about 3 to 4 m. Considering that the oil tea forest has to be ventilated and sunny in order to bear more fruits, the cultivation density should be reasonable. The following four ways to cultivate:

1, if you want to achieve the effect of a forest at once, the terrain is relatively flat planting density is 4mX4m spacing, that is, an acre of 42 trees;

2, if the soil is poor or have a gentle slope of the mountain can also be considered 4mX3m, that is, an acre of 55 trees;

3, if you feel that the early stage of a little sparse, can consider Planting 2mX2m

that is, 166 trees an acre, or 3mX2m, that is, 110 trees an acre, the first to take the plant to increase the mode of production, the oil tea seedlings into the forest after the too dense on the middle of a tree to move away from or deforestation, into a 4mX4m or 4mX3m, for this case, before planting a dense farmers should not be anxious, the late direct deforestation of a tree on the good.

The oil tea tree is generally 2-3 meters high and 2-3 meters wide, covering an area of 4-9 square meters.

So you can usually grow at least about 75 or so oil tea trees on an acre of land.

Growth habit:

Oil tea likes warmth, afraid of cold, requires an average annual temperature of 16 ~ 18 ℃, the average temperature during the flowering period of 12 ~ 13 ℃.

Sudden low temperature or late frost will cause flower and fruit drop. Requires more abundant sunlight, otherwise only grow branches and leaves, less fruit, low oil content.

Requires sufficient moisture, annual precipitation is generally more than 1000 mm, but continuous rainfall during flowering, affecting pollination.

Requirements in the slope and gentle, weak erosion planting, the soil requirements are not very strict, generally suitable for deep soil acidic soil, but not suitable for more rocks and hard soil places.
