After talked about Jatropha's growth requirements, I'd like to continue about its population in an area. Jatropha uses various spacing but the common spacing is 2m x 2m and it will have 2,500 trees per hectare. Some of Jatropha's plantation spacing are:
- 3 m x 3 m (1,100 plants/ha)
- 2 m x 3 m (1,600 plants/ha)
- 2 m x 2 m (2,500 plants/ha)
- 1.5 m x 2.0 m (3,300 plants/ha)
While in tilted area, terrace or contour system the common spacing that being used is 1.5 m x 1.5 m

After spacing is determined then its time to make holes for planting (Without holes we'll have difficulties in planting those trees :p). Common dimension for the hole is 40 cm x 40 cm x 40 cm. As usual, you can see the picture below :)
