OK, but can anyone offer some help for this poor tree with a hole and
splintered wood where itused to have a 5" diameter branch?

Subject: [NAFEX] Damaged trees

<br><br><br><br>My fruit trees are sited next to the hay field. The neighbor
puts up hay on a share basis, and forever there has been no problem. Until
today. He ran into one of the apple trees and tore off a branch of about 5"
diameter, ripping it OUT of the mother branch at the junction. The wood is
splintered three inches or more into the main branch--I pulled chunks out and
can stick my finger in there. I pruned it off as best I could, but it is so
splintered and the bark around it is so loose I don't know how to help it
heal. He skipped a tree, and then skinned a pear tree, knocking off a chunk
of bark about 1/3 of it's diameter, and abourt 5" tall. Young tree. What's
the best way to "fix" it? Have put up a temporary fence to warn him off the
trees when he returns to ted and bale.
