Changing the shape of fruit bearing crops may be one of the keys to automated "intelligent" harvesting. For example, modern olive culture. Regular olives come from a full size tree, people used to (and maybe still do) beat the trees with sticks to get the olives off. But now many olives are grown in low rows that a machine can straddle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0glTpuK8SY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0glTpuK8SY Guessing similar or else some type of espalier is the future of stone fruit culture.
