The motivation of State Senior High School 5 Tuban students in the learning process has declined drastically, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Similarly, basic competence in Biology, including the use of plant growth materials to solve common problems, appears very minimal. Therefore, the training on the manufacture of "Absicic Acid Hormone (ABA)" plant growth inhibitors was conducted using simple and inexpensive substances. The activity commenced with COVID-19 awareness, followed by the ABA production, evaluation and mentoring. The results showed that the participants were very enthusiastic about the training (92.91%). Furthermore, the study also succeeded in increasing ABA knowledge and skills from 31.11-62.74%.

Field experiment was carried out during the spring and fall seasons of 2019 at the Abu Ghraib Research Station of the Agricultural Research Office/ Ministry of Agriculture, was aimed to investigate the effect of plant growth inhibitors on growth and yield of several sorghum varieties .Randomized Complete Block Design within split plot arrangement with three replications was used. The main plot consists of three growth inhibitors (Cycocel, Ethiphon, and Mebiquat), which were added at stages six and eight leaf stage, in addition to the control treatment (distilled water only), the sub plot was included three cultivars (Mabrouk, Buhooth 70 and Giza 113). The results showed in both seasons significant interaction between cultivars and growth inhibitors in most of the studied traits. The plants of the variety Giza 113 sprayed with Ethiphon recorded the lowest period of reaching physiological maturity, the highest average dry matter yield, and the highest weight of 1000 grains (89.00 days, 17.32 ton ha-1, and 39.33 gm) respectively. The same variety recorded the highest content of chlorophyll in the leaves and the highest grain yield due to the effect of Mebiquat (49.50 spad, 3.93 ton ha-1. The cultivar Buhooth 70 with the effect of Cycocel achieved the highest average of dry matter yield of 33.27 ton ha-1.

The commercial development of a wide variety of synthetic plant growth inhibitors for use in floriculture has been possible for several reasons. The high cash value of flower crops can absorb relatively costly treatments; specificity of response permits the viability of several products of basically similar properties, and restrictions on use are less stringent than they would be for food crops. Nevertheless, there are some important applications in temperate cereals and tobacco.
