The invention discloses a method for pruning tomato bearing branches leaning to one side, comprising the following steps of: arranging a lifting rope vertical to ground surface beside rhizome of each plant; cultivating 5-8 bearing branches on each plant from down to up by adopting a continuous pinching and swapping method, and dragging each bearing branch onto the lifting rope of a northward adjacent plant of the plant to cause the included angle between each bearing branch and the ground surface to be 30-45 degrees. By adopting the method, the total inflorescence number of an individual plant can be improved, sunlight can be ensured to directly irradiate onto a tomato plant, photosynthesis is carried out more fully, carbohydrate accumulated on leaves of the bearing branches is easy to return into fruits, the fruits can get larger, and yield is improved. The phenomenon that the bearing branches drop and then are broken as the fruits expand and weight is increased in the later expanding stage of the fruits can be avoided. Plant height can be controlled, three-dimensional space in a shed can be fully utilized, the problem of falling seedling for multiple times can be solved, and labour can be reduced. Field transmitting condition can be improved, morbidity of the fruits can be reduced, the fruits also can be ensured to uniformly develop and be bright and glossy, and high-qualityfruit rate is improved.
