The weeping willow pruning technology is a brand-new fruit tree shaping technology formed by Shandong fruit farmers under the guidance of technicians through practice and exploration, which once set a record of 27,600 Jin per mu of apples.

Practice has proved that weeping willow pruning of fruit trees shows ten advantages:

1. This technology well solves the contradictory requirements of high yield, improving fruit quality and flourishing trees in the process of fruit tree management.

The biggest difference between weeping willow pruning technology and traditional fruit tree pruning technology lies in the treatment of long branches of fruit trees The traditional pruning method is to cut off a large number of upright and vigorous branches. Although the vigorous growth was controlled, it also caused a lot of nutritional waste of fruit trees. The weeping willow pruning method is to keep a large number of vigorous branches. After reaching a certain length, twist and fix the upright branches downward. By changing the growth direction, the vegetative growth will be transformed into reproductive growth as soon as possible, and the nutrition of branches will be transformed into fruit growth. This not only did not destroy the growth potential of fruit trees, but also changed the nutrient distribution of fruit trees, so that a large number of nutrients wasted by pruning in traditional technology were retained and turned to grow fruits, thus greatly improving the yield and quality of fruits.

Second, it is easy to learn. Compared with other tree pruning methods, this technique is simple, without girdling, girdling and coring, as long as the branches are taken, branched and pulled at one time, so that the branches are evenly distributed and the whole tree is weeping willow-shaped, which is clear at a glance.
