ALAR (B-9) has a wide range of applications in biological and chemical industries. It is extensively used in the agricultural sector, being sprayed on fruits to regulate their growth, make their harvest easier, and keep apples from falling off the trees before they are ripe. This ensures that the fruits are firm and retain their colour for storage. daminozide affects the flow-bud initiation, fruit-set maturity, fruit firmness and colouring, pre-harvest drop and market quality of fruit at harvest and during storage. Beyond apples, it was registered for use on cherries, peaches, pears, Concord grapes, tomato transplants and peanut vines.
