Green Pruning in Vineyards: The Efficiency of BFM Trimmers

Green pruning is one of the most strategic interventions in vineyard management. Carried out during the growing season, it helps lighten the canopy, improve airflow, optimize sunlight exposure, and promote even ripening of the grape clusters. It’s a fundamental operation that, to be executed precisely and within a short time frame, requires reliable and high-performing tools. This is where BFM trimmers come into play.

Technology at the Service of Precision Agriculture

Designed to meet the needs of winegrowers working even in challenging environments—such as hilly terrains—BFM’s range of trimmers combines strength, adaptability, and innovation. The solutions developed by the company perfectly align with the modern approach to agriculture, where operational efficiency goes hand in hand with environmental sustainability.

BFM trimmers are built to ensure a clean and continuous cut, even in dense or tender vegetation, thanks to polished stainless-steel blades and fast, precise motion systems. Clean cutting—crucial to plant health—is supported by technical features that minimize sap buildup on the blades.

CM-SN and CM-SNE: Summer Pruning Without Compromise

Two models stand out when it comes to managing summer green pruning: the CM-SN and the CM-SNE. The former is a tried-and-tested, versatile solution equipped with reliable hydraulic motors and adjustable components to fit various row configurations. The latter takes innovation a step further, introducing a fully electric system that eliminates hydraulic oil use and enables even more sustainable operation.

Both versions deliver high performance across different types of terrain, with smooth, agile movements even in narrow spaces, thanks to the pantograph system. The CM-SNE, in particular, is designed for increasingly eco-conscious farming: it offers low energy consumption, and the lack of hydraulic components reduces overheating risks and maintenance needs.

Efficiency, Sustainability, Precision

Investing in a BFM trimmer means embracing a forward-thinking vision: not only are time and operational costs reduced, but the overall quality of vineyard work is enhanced. These machines are built to last, even under heavy mechanical stress, and can be configured to meet the specific needs of each vineyard.

With growing attention to low-impact farming practices, choosing high-performance, versatile, and sustainable equipment is becoming a top priority. BFM trimmers are a reliable ally in canopy management, making green pruning easier, faster, and more respectful of the vine.
