| dc.description | The routine tree management practices, such as pruning and cutting tree tops have been identified as among the most cost effective, easy to replicate and highly sustainable agricultural risk reduction technologies currently implemented. Cutting tree tops and shrubs strengthens trees so that they better withstand hurricanes and strong winds. Besides, it prevents branches from falling on and damaging underlying crops. This practice also allows sun light to penetrate through the tree branches, thus benefiting crops. In addition, the cut vegetation, if left on the ground, may contribute to soil fertilization. | |
