    Good morning folks,

    Below is a picture of my pear tree, followed by a picture of one of the branches. My question is, does this tree have fire blight or is it suffering from a different issue? Also any advice & guidance on treatment?

    There are other infected branches.

    Many thanks

    I would say it was dieback rather than fireblight.
