4-Fluorophenoxyacetic acid(Cat No.:I015083) is a significant phenoxy plant growth regulator with multiple applications in agriculture. It is capable of being absorbed by various parts of plants, including roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Its primary uses include preventing flower and fruit drop, inhibiting bean rooting, promoting fruit setting, inducing seedless fruit development, enhancing ripening, and increasing crop yield. However, it is important to note that 4-Fluorophenoxyacetic acid is considered an organic pollutant commonly found in agricultural production due to its widespread use as a plant growth regulator.
