What will I learn?
This training provides a step-by-step guide to assess orchard blocks, establish pruning goals, and execute safe, effective cuts on both young and mature apple trees. Participants will master techniques to control tree height, width, fruiting wood, and canopy light penetration, while minimising hazards, disease risks, and limb breakages. Develop a comprehensive three-season pruning strategy to enhance yields, fruit size, colour, and sustained orchard productivity through informed, documented choices.
