Abstract

Grapes are one of the most delicious fruit and have been farmed from thousands of years, growing from wild vine. Plant hormone is used for increase size and yield. This study goes into the significance influence of Gibberalic Acid (GA3) on grape farming, showing the ways in which this plant hormone has transformed the agricultural industry. Gibberellic acid is a hormone that is found naturally in plants and is essential for controlling several physiological functions. Many studies have been conducted on its use in grape cultivation. The main factor is growth and development of grape is vine. In grapes GA3 affects everything from flowering to fruit ripening. Enhancing yield is one of the main ways that GA3 helps with grapes production. GA3 encourage the growth of cluster by inducing cell elongation and division, which leads to increasing yield. In addition to satisfying consumers demand, the rise in grape yield helps for grape grower’s bottom line. Roles of application of GA3 on grape vine are different depends on their stages of flowering and fruit setting. It is also gave positive effect on rachis elongation which helps to get Healthy and export quality production. Overall, this review concluded that the Gibberellic Acid (GA3) is an important component linked with improving quality, size of berry, higher production.

Keywords: Gibberellic acid, plant hormone, cell elongation, rachis elongation, high production, quality
