What is the spacing of Napier grass?

 The soil should be well pulverized with the use of a rotavator

The furrows are made 3 feets apart.

The cuttings are planted flat in the furrows, 2 feets apart, and covered with soil one to two inches thick.

The conventional method involves planting one stem with 2 nodes or root split in holes 15–30 cm deep.

10,000 to 12,000 stems can be planted per acre

After planting, irrigate to enhance germination.

Always irrigate when necessary
