Prices for Malian Pecans 
Trees should be planted at a distance of 45x60 
feet apart, requiring 18 trees per acre. At this dis¬ 
tance, other crops may be successfully and profit¬ 
ably cultivated between the rows of Pecans with¬ 
out detriment or injury to the trees. The culti¬ 
vation of other crops while trees are young, ac¬ 
tually benefits the Pecan trees and reduces the 
expense of upkeep to the 'minimum. We recom¬ 
mend the cultivation of corn, cotton and vegetable 
crops between the rows.
