Abstract
Training and pruning principles are discussed with the physiology of tree growth, northeast climate conditions, and growers' objectives in mind. Pruning and training of young, non-fruit bearing apple trees is discussed separately from pruning of fruit bearing trees. Mechanical pruning, renovating old trees, supports, scaffold limbs, central-leader development, and economics of pruning are covered.
