In summer and autumn, sweet cherry trees are most afraid of waterlogging. After waterlogging damage, yellow leaves, wilting, dead branches, poor tree growth, reduced yield, and even dead trees appear, causing the sweet cherry orchard to be uneven and the per-unit yield to be relatively low. After waterlogging, it can aggravate the occurrence of gummosis. Therefore, the cherry orchard must have smooth drainage to ensure that water drains immediately after rain, and at the latest within 2 hours, ensuring that no water accumulation occurs in the orchard. Before the rainy season arrives, drainage ditches must be dug. Plots with a history of waterlogging should be cultivated on ridges, and soil can be added 5 cm at a time to gradually form ridges. If heavy rain occurs and natural drainage is poor, artificial drainage should be used, and if necessary, powered pumping methods should be adopted to also ensure that no water accumulates in the orchard.
