The number of plants ‘required for an acre, at any given 
distance apart may be ascertained by dividing the number 
of square feet in an acre (43,560) by the number of square 
feet given to each plant, which is obtained by multiplying 
the distance between the rows by the distance between 
the plants. Thus, strawberries planted 3 feet by 1 foot 
gives each plant 3 square feet, or 14,520 plants to the acre.
