Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the main requirements for shaping and pruning mango trees, including tree shape modification and pruning of fruiting trees. This document is applicable to the shaping and pruning of mango trees. Main technical content: 1. Terms and definitions: There are no terms or definitions that need to be defined in this document. 2. Main tree shape modification: 2.1 Round-top shape: 2.1.1 First-year shaping: When the plant reaches a height of 60cm-70cm, cut the top and leave three main branches. The angle between the main branches and the trunk should be 40°-50°, and the angle between the main branches and each other should be around 120°. Shorten the first-level main branches at 40cm-50cm, leaving two parallel branches each, and cultivate them into secondary branches. Shorten the secondary branches at 30cm-40cm, leaving 2-3 parallel branches each, and cultivate them into tertiary branches, with a distance of 20cm-30cm between layers. 2.1.2 Second-year shaping: Shorten the tertiary branches at 20cm-30cm, leaving 2-3 parallel branches each, and prune them after each shoot growth. 2.1.3 Third-year shaping: Cultivate parallel branches according to the previous year's method. After three years of planting, the mango tree should have a height of no more than 2.5m, a crown area of 2-3m2, and no more than 60-80 terminal branches, forming a round-top crown. 2.1.4 Fourth-year shaping: Continue to cultivate multi-level branches. The tree should have a height of 2.5m-3m, a crown area of 3-4m2, and no more than 80-100 terminal branches, forming a productive round-top crown. 2.2 Spindle shape: 2.2.1 First-year shaping: When the plant reaches a height of 60cm-70cm, cut the top and leave one branch upright as the central stem. Leave three main branches, with the angle between the main branches and the central stem being 40°-50°, and the angle between the main branches and each other being around 120°. Shorten the first-level main branches at 20cm-30cm, leavi
