In the Krka National Park you can learn how to properly prune an olive tree
20/03/2023
This week a workshop will be held on pruning olive trees at Brištane, while a meeting with the local inhabitants will take place at Puljane
There is a saying: “Whoever prunes an olive tree can make a mistake. But the greatest mistake is not to prune at all.” So that the olive growers from the area of the Krka River carry out this year’s pruniung as successfully as possible, the Krka National Park is organizing an olive tree pruning workshop on Wednesday, 22 March 2023 at 2 pm. The workshop will be held at Brištane, along the central course of the Krka, at the roundabout towards Visovac Island. It will be led by Jakša Rošin, from the Institute for Adriatic Culture and Karst Reclamation in Split.
Pruning olive trees requires knowledge and skill on the part of the olive grower. In the past, no great care was paid in our region to olive trees. Grains and grape vines had priority, and olive trees were neither pruned nor fertilized. Today it is known that without pruning there are no real results, so it is necessary to learn, with the help of experts, the rules of the work, i.e. the techniques of pruning.
