1. For annual pear trees, the top of the pear tree should be bent at 40-50 cm from the ground. It should be noted that the angle and direction of pear branches in the whole orchard should be consistent, and it is best to keep the angle level with the ground.
2. Pay off the rope in the spring of the following year, keep the treetops at about 90- 100 degrees, and the branches are still in an upright state. The purpose of branch pulling of annual pear trees is to promote the formation of more lateral branches and lay the foundation for branch pulling in the coming year.
3. When pulling branches in the second year, strong branches should be selected at the bending point in the first year to bend 40-50 cm away from the base, and other lateral branches should be bent left and right as the main branches.
4. The method of plucking branches in the third year is similar to that in the second year. Both are to find a strong branch at the bend of the branch pulling in the previous year and pull the branch from the position 40-50 cm above the base. In this way, find a strong branch every year for one year, two years and three years to form a three-layer crown and three main branches, which will lay the foundation for pear trees to blossom and bear fruit in the future.

Precautions:
1. Branches are mostly used for 1-3-year-old young trees. Branching is a technical job, but it can't be too light or too heavy. Not if it's too light. After a long time, the branches will continue to grow upwards. If it is too heavy, it will break a few branches on the small pear tree, so it is generally gradual.
2. When pulling branches, mainly choose long branches larger than 50 cm, and generally do not pull the extended branches of the central trunk. If the main branch is not enough, it can also be pulled into the main branch, but the extension head of the central trunk should be re-cultivated. Trees that are too weak do not pull branches.
