dwarfing technology
Dwarfing technology involves modifying the growth of plants or trees to be smaller and more manageable without sacrificing productivity or health. This is achieved through genetic selection, breeding, or using growth-inhibiting agents, allowing plants to have reduced stature while maintaining desirable traits. Dwarfing is valuable in agriculture and horticulture because it makes plants easier to cultivate, harvest, and transport, and can improve resistance to environmental stresses. Essentially, it optimizes plant size for practical benefits, enhancing efficiency and land use while preserving their underlying growth potential.
