Anti-fall support ropes are not just simple tools for stabilizing trees — they are the “golden secret” that has helped many farmers in the Central Highlands increase their durian yields by up to 20% each season. Instead of waiting for storm damage, farmers now proactively use high-strength PP ropes from SIAM Brothers Vietnam to maintain tree balance, prevent branch breakage, and reduce recovery costs.
From the real-life experience of a 3-hectare durian farm in Đắk Lắk, this article from SIAM Brothers Vietnam reveals how to properly use anti-fall support ropes to protect your orchard, improve productivity, and ensure a safe and abundant harvest.
1. The Real Problem – Tree Collapse and Branch Breakage Cause Heavy Losses
1.1 Post-Rain Damage – The Constant Fear of Farmers
In many durian-growing regions of the Central Highlands, a single heavy rain with strong winds can topple dozens of trees. The result is a 10–30% drop in yield and significant long-term damage to fruit quality and tree vitality.
Have you ever seen rows of durian trees leaning after a storm? That’s why many farmers today proactively use anti-fall support ropes to secure their trees early in the season.
1.2 Why Trees Collapse Easily
- Harsh weather: Prolonged rain and strong winds soften the soil and weaken roots.
- Wide canopy, heavy fruit: Uneven weight distribution causes the trunk to tilt.
- Improper support methods: Many farmers use thin nylon ropes that easily break or damage bark.
- Lack of prevention: Securing trees after they’ve already tilted is too late — roots are already strained.
1.3 Long-Term Impact on Yield and Costs
- Average yield loss of 10–20% per year due to slow recovery.
- Recovery expenses are 3–4 times higher than early prevention using anti-fall support ropes.
- Increased risk of pests and fungal diseases due to trunk injuries.
- Chain reaction damage: When one tree falls, nearby ones are pulled down as well.
1.4 Real Stories from the Central Highlands
Reports from durian farms in Đắk Lắk and Gia Lai show:
- Early-season storms cause 10–15% of trees to collapse.
- A 3-hectare farm loses over 30 million VND per season, excluding recovery costs.
- After switching to SIAM Eco Farm anti-fall support ropes, the damage rate dropped below 2%.
1.5 Expert Insight from SIAM Brothers VN
According to agricultural engineer and SIAM Brothers technical specialist:
“Most damage can be avoided if farmers secure trees early in the rainy season using durable PP ropes with proper elasticity. Anti-fall support ropes not only keep trees upright but also protect their root systems — the key factor that determines yield.”

4. How to Properly Tie an Anti-Fall Support Rope – 5 Safe and Effective Steps
4.1. Preparation Before Installation
Before securing the tree, farmers should ensure:
- Choose the right rope type: Use SIAM Brothers 3-strand or 4-strand PP ropes with high durability, UV resistance, and strong load capacity.
- Identify the prevailing wind direction: Tie the rope in the opposite direction to enhance stability.
- Set up solid anchor points: Use bamboo, steel, or concrete posts buried at least 40–50 cm deep in the soil.
4.2. Five Steps to Tie an Anti-Fall Support Rope Correctly
Step 1: Determine the tying position on the tree trunk
- Select a point about one-third of the tree’s height above ground (typically 0.8–1.2 m).
- Avoid tying too close to the roots or too high on the trunk to maintain balance.
Step 2: Protect the trunk with a soft layer
- Wrap a piece of cloth or rubber tube around the trunk before tying to prevent bark damage.
- The rope should be snug but not tight, allowing room for growth.
Step 3: Pull the rope diagonally at a 45° angle
- Tighten the rope diagonally against the wind direction to balance tension.
- For large trees, use 2–3 ropes in a triangular pattern to increase stability.
Step 4: Secure the rope to the anchor point
- Firmly attach the rope end to the stake or pole.
- Check the tension — avoid slack (tree may fall) or excessive tightness (tree may bend).
Step 5: Inspect regularly after storms or during growth
- Loosen the rope if the tree grows rapidly to prevent constriction.
- Replace the rope when it shows signs of wear, fraying, or loss of elasticity.
4.3. Tips to Improve Durability and System Efficiency
- Avoid using recycled or thin nylon ropes — they break easily and can injure the tree.
- Inspect the rope system monthly, especially during storm season.
- Combine proper tying with pruning and drainage management to reduce load and improve tree balance.
4.4. Technical Summary
- Field results from multiple farms in the Central Highlands confirm that when anti-fall support ropes are installed correctly, trees not only remain stable but also develop more evenly, bear heavier fruit, and achieve noticeably higher yields.
- Investing time in proper rope installation is a critical step for farmers to protect their crops, improve productivity, and reduce long-term costs.
