1. Applicable crops of paclobutrazol:
Field crops include wheat, corn, rice, etc.;
Cash crops include soybeans, rapeseed, peanuts, cotton, potatoes, radishes, tobacco, etc.;
Fruits include apples, pears, peaches, hawthorns, cherries, honey pomelo, litchi, etc.;
Flowers are also suitable for paclobutrazol.

2. The efficacy principle of paclobutrazol:
Paclobutrazol is an agricultural agent that can weaken the top growth advantage of plants. It can be absorbed by crop roots and leaves, regulate plant nutrient distribution, slow down growth rate, inhibit top growth and stem elongation, and shorten internode distance. At the same time, it promotes flower bud differentiation, increases the number of flower buds, increases the fruit setting rate, accelerates cell division, increases chlorophyll content, promotes tillering, strengthens the root system, and enhances plant resistance. Low concentrations of paclobutrazol can enhance leaf photosynthesis and promote growth, while high concentrations can inhibit photosynthesis, strengthen root respiration, and slow down stem and leaf growth. In addition, paclobutrazol can also improve fruit yield and quality, and has certain ability to kill bacteria and inhibit weed growth.

3. Precautions for the use of paclobutrazol:
1. Different seasons and crop varieties have different requirements for concentration and dosage, so you should be flexible when using it.
2. Strictly follow the instructions for use to avoid excessive use and cause pesticide damage.
3. If excessive use leads to limited crop growth, it should be remedied in time by increasing nitrogen fertilizer or spraying gibberellin.
