Calculate the number of row acres present in a site if crop spacing is four feet, there are 250 rows, and the average linear distance is 1,500 feet?

• A. 30.0 acres
• B. 34.4 acres
• C. 28.5 acres
• D. 40.1 acres

Answer: (B)

Row acres are found by combining how many rows you have, how long each row is, and how far apart the rows are, then converting that area into acres. Multiply the number of rows by the row length, then by the spacing between rows to get square feet, and finally divide by 43,560 (since 1 acre = 43,560 sq ft).

Calculation: 250 rows × 1,500 ft per row × 4 ft spacing = 1,500,000 square feet. Convert to acres: 1,500,000 ÷ 43,560 ≈ 34.43 acres, which rounds to 34.4 acres.
