Citrus Pruning in the Mediterranean Climate: A Review. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Pruning is a common practice in citrus for various reasons. These include controlling and shaping the canopy; improving phytosanitary health, productivity, and fruit quality; and facilitating operations such as harvesting and phytosanitary treatments. Because pruning is an expensive operation, its need is sometimes questioned.
