ISA has developed a series of Best Management Practices (BMPs) for the purpose of interpreting tree care standards and providing guidelines of practice for arborists, tree workers, and the people who employ their services.

Topics in this BMP include:

  • Pruning Systems
  • Pruning Objectives
  • Pruning Cuts
  • Pruning Practices
  • Poor Pruning Practices
  • Pruning Conifers, Palms, and Bamboo
  • Pruning Specifications
