These two effects cancelled each

On the other hand, kenaf
responded well to changes in row
spacmgs Hatley used row widths
of 12, 24, and 36 inches. When
planted in rows 12 inches apart, the
crop yielded about 800 pounds dry
matter per acre more than when
planted in rows 36 inches apart.
Despite the boost in harvest
yields that come from closer row
spacmgs, kenaf produced 2.5 tons
of dry matter per acre. Hatley
reports the experimental plantings
suffered from low rainfall, cool
temperatures, and an early bout
with anthracnose.
He said he hopes that with better
weather, yields might reach five
tons per acre this year.
