Tree pruning is an approved method of controlling growth and removing diseased or dead wood. It is also often used to stimulate the new growth of fruit and flower buds in fruit trees to enhance their productivity.
For many species of tree, pruning should be carried out in the winter, whilst the tree is dormant, but it can also be done in the summer months, which is often required for cherry species to avoid silver leaf fungus infection.
When the tree is felled, all the side branches are removed (lopping) and then the top is cut off (topping). This then leaves a long bare trunk that can be cut into 2m length sections ready for timber production.
