Why did farmers use the chemical forchlorfenuron?

First off we need to know what forchlorfenuron is well it is a  a growth accelerator

this was recently in china but i think it can answer you question

Farmers claim forchlorfenuron can bring the harvest forward by two weeks and increase the size and price of the fruit by more than 20%. Agricultural experts say forchlorfenuron has been widely used in China since the 1980s. Some said it was unsuitable for this fruit, but there was probably little health risk.
