Italian term

vaso aperto

Italian to English Other Agriculture
This is from a list of technical terms at the end of an online olive oil guide. The guide is for the use of consumers and olive oil enthusiasts and not for those in the business of producing the oil. The source paragraph is a list of other terms eg vaso, vaso policonico, vaso cespugliato etc. Many thanks for any suggestions or sources. I have used the Olive Oil Source website which has helped a bit

You prune the trees to have their centres opened up, allowing the sun and air to penetrate.
