This is a great resource for anyone who wants to learn more about pruning breadfruit trees. I especially appreciate the inclusion of the 12-page guide and the links to videos from local farmers.
I’m curious to know more about how pruning breadfruit trees can affect fruit production. The article mentions that proper pruning can increase yields, but could you elaborate on the specific ways that pruning accomplishes this? For example, does pruning encourage more branching, which leads to more fruit?
Thanks for sharing this Breadfruit handbook it a great help to us new farmer’s..
