| dc.description.abstract | As the available planting matrial in coconuts is so mixed, a system of hedge planting is suggested whereby more seedlings than necessary are transplanted and selectively thinned to a required density so that the ultimate stand is composed of high-yielding palms. Theoretical considerations are adduced in favour of this system of planting but no definite recommendation are made owing to the lack of supporting experimental evidence. The institute is initiating a field trial to comare hedge planting with the conventional method of planting. | en_US |
