I'm doing some spatial analysis of fig trees, using the locations of trees as a point process for Bayesian modelling. I'm considering whether to include the proximity to rivers as a spatial covariate in the analysis, and specifically, whether to log-transform this variable- if figs increase at a log scale in proximity to rivers.
I'm studying figs in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo but haven't found much information about this relationship in this part of the world, so any & all info is appreciated.
Best wishes & stay safe!

Hi
In fact the watering needs of a fig tree depend largely on the soil and the weather.

Yes, higher light levels and the availability of water are prerequisites for the growth of fig trees.
yes kindly consider following points
The recommended time to plant your fig tree is during the months of March and April or else in fall.
A spot that is sheltered from wind and in full sun will suit your fruit tree perfectly. Growing it is very easy.
Some say that the fig tree loves having its feet in the water and its head in the sun, because the soil must stay cool for it to grow best.
- A warm and sunny location is almost mandatory if you’re hoping for figs.
- In cold weather climates, consider planting your trees near a wall, since the added protection will help your plants withstand the cold.
- Fig tree are easily damaged in drafty and windy spots.
