Pruning Citrus Trees like Lemons, Oranges, Grapefruits, Limes and Mandarins

The pruning of citrus fruits (orange, lemon, lime, mandarin, grapefruit) is an essential cultivation technique that aims to control the vegetative growth of trees and their shape. In addition, it aims to maintain an adequate fruit zone at tree level, but also to ensure good ventilation and lighting of the canopy of trees, thus helping to reduce the growth of enemies and diseases, thus ensuring good plant health. Overall, the above is achieved by a combination of pruning sections.
