Abstract: The present invention relates to an inhibitor for tobacco axillary bud growth, the inhibitor comprising, as an active ingredient, one or more kinds of very-long chain fatty acid synthesis inhibitors such as a chloroacetamide-based herbicide, fentrazamide, cafenstrole or indanofan; an inhibitor for tobacco axillary bud growth, the inhibitor comprising the aforesaid very-long chain fatty acid synthesis inhibitor together with clorthal-dimethyl or an aliphatic alcohol having 6 to 20 carbon atoms; and a method for inhibiting tobacco axillary bud growth which comprises applying the inhibitor for tobacco axillary bud growth. The inhibitor for tobacco axillary bud growth of the present invention shows sustained drug efficacy at a low concentration, induces neither chemical injury nor disease, and can contribute to the improvement in labor productivity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the preparation of 4-hyroxy-L-proline or compositions with a high content of this aminoacid and the use thereof as agrochemical in the agronomical field and/or as a synthesis intermediate of chemical compounds.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting the growth of suckers in tobacco plants which comprises applying to said tobacco plants after topping an effective amount of a composition comprising saturated fatty alcohols and polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters.

Abstract: The subject invention concerns the use of fatty acids in combination with maleic hydrazide to achieve excellent control of tobacco suckers on topped plants. The control of suckers is achieved at low rates of maleic hydrazide, thereby reducing maleic hydrazide residues on harvested tobacco.
