The first WINTER WEDNESDAY PRUNING SEMINAR brought to you by the Lodi Winegrape Commission (LWC) was held on the afternoon of December 16th at Ring Ranch in Acampo, California.

This Spagnolo machine has three major components: a power pack, a carrier frame, and a head. The blades on the head are adjustable and allow for pruning on all four sides of the cordon, whereas other box pruning equipment does not prune below the cordon.
