    Question

    Fruit drop in chili can be overcome by spraying:

    A.

    Gibberellic Acid (GA3)

    B.

    NAA (Naphthalene Acetic Acid)

    C.

    Ethrel

    D.

    Auxin

    Correct option is B


    NAA (Naphthalene Acetic Acid) is commonly used to prevent fruit drop in chili by improving fruit retention and reducing premature shedding.
    (a) GA3: Promotes growth but does not prevent fruit drop effectively.
    (c) Ethrel: Used for fruit ripening, not for preventing drop.
    (d) Auxin: A general term, NAA is a specific type of auxin.
    Important Point: NAA is typically applied as a foliar spray at a concentration of 20-40 ppm.
