Dense planting techniques involve planting crops at higher densities to maximize land use and increase overall yield per unit area. This method is particularly effective for crops like vegetables, grains, and legumes, where high planting densities can improve competition for light, water, and nutrients. By using improved seed varieties and optimized planting arrangements, farmers can create more productive and efficient cropping systems. Dense planting also supports sustainable farming practices by reducing the need for large expanses of land, making it a viable solution for addressing food security in urban and peri-urban areas. However, careful management of soil fertility and pest control is necessary to ensure the success of this technique.
