The cashew nut is planted at a distance of:
Answer: B
Cashew is planted at a spacing of 7.5 x 7.5 m, which gives about 177 trees per hectare (10000 / 56.25). The key gives this figure. I did not find a source in this search that compares the other spacings.
3.5 m is too close for a tree with a broad canopy, and 11.5 and 15.5 m are wider than the spacing used in commercial planting.
Cashew is a spreading evergreen tree, so wide planting is needed for the canopies to develop. At 7.5 m each way each tree has about 56 square metres, which is 177 trees to the hectare.
