AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for shortening the growth period of plants, such as microwave irradiation and NO2 exposure, require large-scale facilities and are expensive, making it difficult to treat a large number of plants uniformly, and can prolong the overall growth period if harvest timing is not aligned.
A compound represented by Formula (I) or its tautomer, or an agronomically acceptable salt thereof, is used as an agent to induce flowering induction genes, accelerating flower bud formation, flowering, fruit setting, and harvesting, and equalizing growth rates across plants.
The agent effectively shortens the growth period and equalizes growth rates, allowing plants to flower, set fruit, and harvest at the same time, reducing cultivation costs and environmental impact while increasing yield.
