intensive beds

However ... the information you're asking for is of limited use. If I grew 
average yields I'd be out of the farmers market business. Average isn't worth 
spit. From a practical standpoint, yield per plant varies too widely - with 
factors like soil structure, moisture retentiveness, depth of topsoil, 
temperatures, winds, length of growing season, organic matter content, rain 
and irrigation. Yield per square foot for a given garden space is more useful 
because other things being equal, biointensive can yield several times as 
much as conventional tractor rows. It does for me with less than ideal 
conditions.

Your own experience, Tony - and neighbors - can tell you more about yields 
where you live and with the methods you use. Your location in the Berkshires 
is wildly different from mine in the high desert southwest, so the concept of 
average is useless for both of us.
