Forestry / Wood / Timber
Spanish term or phrase: copa estrecha
Estoy traduciendo una propuesta para un proyecto. Se indica que el tipo de cultivo de caoba es muy favorable, entre otras cosas porque:

"... tiene buen crecimiento, tiene una excelente demanda en el mercado nacional e internacional, presenta una copa estrecha lo que contribuye a un excelente aprovechamiento del área del cultivo..."

¿Alguna idea del término técnico para "copa estrecha" al inglés?

Thanks!

agree  Aïda Garcia Pons: I'd go for "narrow top". It's widely used.
