Why prune the fruit trees?
Why should fruit trees be pruned? Because the tree has the advantage of the top, if the top is cut off, it will grow to both sides, so it will bear more fruits. According to different plant characteristics, proper pruning can improve the quality and quantity of fruits.

Pruning is an important technical measure in fruit tree cultivation management. Choosing a reasonable tree shape and using correct pruning techniques in orchard are important guarantees to realize early fruit, high yield, stable yield and high quality of fruit trees, so pruning has always been valued by fruit tree producers. Fruit tree shaping is a technique to cultivate the main branches and crowns of trees into specific structures and shapes by pruning and applying corresponding cultivation techniques, which is also called fruit tree pruning. Pruning refers to direct pruning (or cutting) of fruit trees and similar surgical operations in order to control the number of branches (including increasing the total number, direction and growth potential). Cutting roots and applying plant growth regulators for the purpose of controlling the number and growth of branches also belong to pruning. The former is called root pruning and the latter is called chemical pruning.

The selection of fruit tree pruning tools is also an important part. Choosing good electric pruning shears for fruit trees (fruit tree pruning shears, electric branch pruning shears and electric pruning shears) can not only improve the pruning efficiency, but also better protect the trees.

Some experienced fruit farmers often prune fruit trees. Why? First of all, if the branches and leaves of fruit trees grow too luxuriantly and cover each other, resulting in insufficient light in some leaves, the intensity of photosynthesis will be reduced, and the nutrients produced by fruit trees can not meet the growth needs of branches and leaves, nor can they be stored for flowers and fruits. Secondly, the branches and leaves are closed, which is easy to breed pests and diseases, leading to poor plant growth. Therefore, it is necessary to prune properly, remove weak branches and maintain a certain tree shape to ensure ventilation and light transmission of fruit trees, reduce pests and diseases, and ensure that leaves can produce enough nutrients to meet the needs of flowers and fruits. In this way, the yield and quality of fruit trees can also be improved accordingly.
