Storms and winter pruning.

Severe weather can happen any time of year, with the storms, hurricanes, and earthquakes becoming more and more frequent at the moment.

Trees can be affected by storms, bad weather and become hazardous. This is when trees can become dangerous to remove without machinery.

Our entire plantation here at Ecocrops International is fully insured should this ever happen.

As autumn approaches we here at EcoCrops International believe that now is the perfect time for you to look for overwintering insect eggs attached to the tree trunk and to look for any sign of pest damage.

When it comes to pruning you're normally at this time of year there are no leaves so we can easily see the structure of the tree. Pruning the trees whilst less dormant is also less of a shock to a tree. By doing pruning at the start of winter the tree heals him throughout the spring. Also, winter is a perfect time for pruning because the soil is hard and frozen and no equipment or machinery will damage the soil or the roots of the trees.
