Pruning
Training young trees, rehabilitation of older trees, and general canopy management.
How we do it
We train our staff in pruning methods designed to maximize production in your orchard. We advise pruning for the best bearing structure while considering tree height, accessibility and costs for future picking and spray penetration through the canopy.
Structural pruning is best done in autumn and winter to avoid sunburn. Management of regrowth can be done throughout the year.
We have a range of equipment which we can use to tackle any job from large old trees to delicate young plantings. Including a top of the line tracked chipper and telescopic hyrdaladas with hydraulic pole saws.
We advise removing and /or chipping all prunings to put back under the trees to provide nutritious mulch and improve orchard sanitation.
