Israël:
Mechanical pruning in a Guyot-system in September to still get flower-buds, just behind the cuts.

Germany:
Second year of trials with the new machine to do mechanical thinning of apples on a (very) late moment.
It does need further development to avoid damage to the fruits.
Also it only be usable for varieties that are NOT sensitive for
bi-annualty.

Mechanical thinning machine that could be used in a late stage when fruits are already around 15-20 mm., so after the danger of spring-frost, and even after June-drop. Does come out of the stone-fruit sector. Till now, still too much damage to the fruits. Does need more development.

Poland 2022.
Complete automatic forklift for most of the transport around a grading-machine.

Machine to prune droopy wood. Here in apple trees, but also possible with specific pear-varieties. First the vertical mechanical pruning-machine will do the first round and later on this machine that does prune horizontal. There are already combined machines developed, that does both rounds in 1 go.

In several years, picking-machines will appear on the Fruit-farms.
As here in Israel on a farm on the Golan-heights.
