We went down our allotment today to find that our fig tree has been torn
apart by the mindless idiots who live around here. we have the main trunk
and 2 branches left,,,,will it survive or do we cut our losses and
call it a
day.

any help will be appreciated

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr bloody hooligans :~(

However I would imagine that it will survive. I expect they get eaten
by goats
etc in the wild !

Hooligans are in season ATM. Indeed, as a pest species......

Fig trees are pretty tough so I'd expect it will regrow pretty
vigorously once spring arrives. I don't think they bleed sap from cuts
too badly. You could try interleaving it with a ferocious bramble for
self defence.

If you plant the bits they broke off they will probably grow as well.
