Hello dear
Bagging is a process used in plant breeding to prevent self pollination in bisexual flowers . Anthers from bisexual flowers are removed and this act of removing anther is called emasculation and then flower is covered with a paper bag to prevent  contamination from unwanted pollens . This process of covering emasculated flower with a bag is called bagging.
Thankyou
Feel free to ask your further queries if any.

Hello
Bagging is a technique used to prevent the fertilization of stigma from undesired pollen by covering the emasculated flower with butter-paper. It is useful in a plant breeding programme because only desired pollen grains for pollination and protection of the stigma from contamination of undesired pollen.
Goodluck I hope this helps you
