An acre is 11 rows 36 inches apart 1/4 mile long.You could say 10 rows,but you would have to measure from the center of each row that you start and stop with,so 10,36inch rows center before and center past is 43,560 square feet.Or 11 rows,row to row.I could be wrong.Any other row widths and I dont know.I think the actual feet would be 33 ft wide by 1320 ft long,but say 20 inch rows would be about 19 for an acre.If you have rows shorter than 1/4 mile,and you have to turn all the time,its going to take more spray,but I dont know how much more.The shape of the field might make a difference too.The longer you can run a machine set right without having to slow down and stop,turn,the better coverage you are going to get as long as it works right.When you slow down it starts changing the rate,putting more on than you need probably,so in a small field you will put more on than a field thats mostly straight and long.
