Product details
Kataar Plant Growth Regulator by AgroStar | 1
litre
Kataar contains paclobutrazol 23% w/w SC, a systemic plant
growth regulator for mature mango trees. It helps restrict excessive vegetative growth and encourages flowering. It is not a
fertiliser, insecticide or disease-control treatment. This listing is the 1 litre pack.
Suitable crop: Mature mango trees at least 7 years old.
Purpose: Growth regulation, flowering support and reduced fruit shedding, not a
guaranteed increase in yield.
Application basis: A single post-harvest soil-drench application, with the exact
tree-specific directions confirmed before use.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌳 Mature-mango focus: Designed for growth
regulation in established mango trees, not young plants or an unrestricted list of fruit crops.
-
🌿 Controls excessive growth: Inhibits
gibberellin biosynthesis, reducing cell elongation and shortening internodes.
-
🌼 Supports flowering: Helps redirect growth
away from excessive vegetative vigour towards flowering under the correct orchard programme.
-
🥭 Fruit-retention support: AgroStar
describes reduced fruit shedding. Results still depend on tree condition, weather and orchard management.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Paclobutrazol changes plant growth by inhibiting gibberellin
biosynthesis. This is a growth-regulation effect, not nutrition or pest control.
-
Restricts elongation: Reduced cell elongation produces shorter internodes and more compact growth.
-
Regulates vigour: Restricting excessive vegetative growth supports the intended flowering response in mature mango.
-
Needs a tree-specific plan: Tree age, soil and orchard conditions matter. Systemic absorption through plant tissues does not
authorise an unlisted application route.
Do not borrow a fungicide or herbicide programme for this PGR.
Confirm the exact mango tree, soil-drench directions and harvest requirements; avoid overdosing or automatic repeat
treatments.
Target Crop & Growth Regulation
Use only on mature mango trees at least 7 years old, with the
supplied product directions. These purposes do not authorise use on younger trees or other crops.

Confirm the full tree-specific programme, including harvest and worker-entry requirements, before measuring or applying the
product.
Application Requirements & Orchard Planning
| Requirement |
What to Confirm Before Use |
|---|---|
| Tree suitability |
Mature mango only, at least 7 years old. Confirm tree age and condition. |
| First application |
After fruit harvest. AgroStar identifies July to October as its intended seasonal window; match this to local harvest and
orchard conditions. |
| Route and frequency |
Single application as a soil drench. Do not turn this into a foliar spray or repeated treatment. |
| Product and water |
Obtain the exact per-tree product quantity, dilution water and placement directions from the supplied pack and qualified
product-specific advice. |
| Soil and intervals |
Confirm soil suitability, any sandy-soil adjustment, next-harvest requirements and worker-entry restrictions. Do not calculate
an adjustment from an incomplete instruction. |
No improvised conversion: No per-acre, per-litre, tank,
pump or pack-coverage recipe is given. A tree-age rate is not an area rate.
Moisture and placement: The soil should be moist, or
lightly irrigated immediately after application as the product directions require. Follow the exact permitted soil placement and close
the treated furrow where directed.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Check the orchard: Confirm mature mango, tree age and the intended growth-regulation objective before selecting a programme.
-
Confirm the complete directions: Check the supplied Kataar pack for tree-specific quantity, water, placement, harvest and entry
requirements. A patch test does not authorise an unlabelled crop or overdose.
-
Time after harvest: Use the specified post-harvest timing rather than a flowering-stage spray or a pesticide schedule.
-
Use the soil route: Apply only by the confirmed soil-drench method. Do not infer foliar use from the fact that paclobutrazol can be
absorbed by leaves.
-
Respect soil differences: Seek product-specific advice for sandy soil rather than improvising a percentage reduction. Maintain the
directed soil moisture without contaminating drainage water.
-
Avoid automatic repeats: The stated method is a single application. Do not repeat merely because flowering has not yet
occurred.

4. Why is there no numerical quantity per tree?
The complete supplied-pack programme, harvest requirements and soil-specific directions need confirmation together. Do not use an isolated age-based quantity as a complete drench recipe.

5. Can I repeat it or reduce the rate for sandy soil myself?
Do not improvise either change. Confirm the exact current product directions and qualified orchard advice; the stated method is a single application, and a soil adjustment must be unambiguous.
