I don't know why I cringed when reading that. That would seem to interfere with nature's cycle for production purposes?
It's always done with a purpose to enhance longer-term. Sometimes the trees get too big (which is why they become unhealthy) and become hard to harvest as well as producing lower quality olives.
"Radical pruning" is an effective answer. It looks and seems brutal at first but in a few years they look great. Of course the trunk can be planked for building a table-top, making wooden bowls, plates, spoons which also honours the tree, I believe. I'll see if I can photo a neighbour's tree like this.

Okay that better explains it. I initially read it as the trees were downed so they would produce more ( which they would, but not for the purposes of man's profit, but for their own good ).

I could commune with trees all day. Thank you for sharing.
I agree these are well capture Josh, I can see an African elephant at the base of the second pic, its like cloud watching, great stuff.

Love this Razzer...Mirkwood indeed.
@Josh again stunning life. Treating photos of trees like portraits, of their personality and sense of life in the world is the way to go:)

No offence to DUP, but the image compression in these uploads does not do his photos any justice.
Thanks JB and thanks for your support on Twits too. Not unnoticed:)
