Determinación de distancias de siembra en papayo, Carica papaya L. para la zona plana del Valle del Cauca
The present work was carried out with the objective of to determine the best planting distance for the papayo tree under the Cauca Valley. Four distances between rows (1, 2, 3 and 4 m) and three between ptants (1, 2 and 3 m) were studied, using a split plot design with three repetitions. A reduction in planting distances increased the height of plant, flowering and yield; however the stem diameter and leaf number decreased. Number of nodes, period of time from transplanting to flowering and harvest, harvest time, virus incidence, number of fruits per plant as well as its quality were not affected by variation on planting distances. The yield was strongly affected by planting distances. The best yield (57.1 t/ha) over a period of harvest of 2 months was obtained with a 1 m between rows and 2 m between plants.
