How many olive trees can be planted per acre?

The traditional spacing between the olive trees is approximately 7 m or 30 ft. This spacing is no longer used except in regions that are deserted dry farm regions. The high-density planting can accommodate 200 to 350 trees per acre i.e., approximately 494 to 865 plants per hectare. The high-density system of planting can be used with any variety of olive.

There is one super high density planting system practiced for olive cultivation, where the spacing between plants is 5× 13 ft. This system can accommodate approximately 2083 trees per hectare.
