An apparatus designed to measure the trunk circumference of fruit trees is described herein. It has been invented to replace the traditional measuring tape method commonly used by pomologists. Field tests were conducted with both methods in order to compare their respective results. In terms of mean circumference and accuracy no significant difference could be found between them. Using the apparatus made the work easier but the weight of the apparatus should be decreased.
