Niria - Paclobutrazole 23% SC - ADAMA
Niria Plant Growth Regulator | Paclobutrazol 23% w/w SC
Mango growth regulation to restrain excessive shoot extension and support flowering and fruit set in a
suitable orchard programme.
Orchard purpose: Management of excessive terminal growth and alternate bearing in
mango.
Planning stage: Assess tree age, size, bearing history and condition before
choosing a growth-regulator treatment.
Season and method: The post-harvest July–October planning window remains
conditional on the current Niria label; it does not establish a dose or application route.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌿 Restrains excessive shoot extension: Reduced gibberellin production can limit terminal shoot growth and shorten internodes, the spaces between leaves.
-
🌸 Supports flower initiation: Growth
regulation can support a suitable mango flowering programme; the response depends on tree condition and correct timing.
-
🥭 Supports fruit set: Niria is used to
support fruit set alongside appropriate pollination, nutrition, irrigation and crop protection.
-
🔁 Helps manage alternate bearing: It can be
one tool for the pattern of heavy cropping in one year and light cropping in another, without guaranteeing equal annual yields.

How It Works: Mango Growth Regulation
-
Reduces growth-hormone production: Paclobutrazol blocks gibberellin biosynthesis. Gibberellins help regulate shoot elongation.
-
Makes vegetative growth more compact: Restricted terminal growth and shorter internodes alter the tree’s growth pattern; this does
not reduce its need for normal orchard care.
-
Supports reproductive development: The growth-regulating effect is used to support flower initiation and fruit set in appropriately
selected mango trees.
Growth regulation is not a cure for every cause of poor flowering. Tree condition, bearing history, season and
orchard management remain important. Niria is not a fertilizer, and no insecticide or fungicide resistance group is assigned to this
use.

Confirm that the actual tree group is eligible under the supplied Niria label before treatment.
Dosage & Application Guide
Plan by eligible trees, not a generic acre rate
For eligible mango trees, plan the treatment after fruit harvest within July–October only when the current
Niria directions permit that season. Establish the tree-specific quantity, application route, water requirement and harvest conditions
before measuring product. This seasonal planning cue is not a complete application programme.
Do not treat a foliar spray, drip application and soil drench as interchangeable. The SC formulation does not
select a route. No generic per-acre, per-tree, canopy-metre or pump recipe follows from the product identity. A missing harvest
interval does not mean immediate harvest; follow all applicable harvest, entry and repeat-use restrictions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Assess the orchard first: Review mango variety, tree size, age, bearing history and present condition with a qualified orchard
adviser.
-
Match the exact pack: Check Niria and paclobutrazol 23% w/w SC; another concentration or brand does not establish the same tree
dose.
-
Set the season and eligibility: Use the permitted post-harvest season and exact tree class. Do not apply automatically to all trees
in a block.
-
Obtain the complete method: Confirm product amount, water and placement from the supplied Niria directions. Do not choose a
convenient spray, drip or soil method instead.
-
Maintain normal care and records: Continue suitable nutrition, irrigation, pollination support and pest and disease management.
Record treated trees, date and quantity, and check the label before repeating.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Niria a fertilizer or a general fruit-tree tonic?
No. It is a paclobutrazol growth regulator for the listed mango use. It does not replace the nutrients or
other care that trees need.
2. What is alternate bearing?
A heavy crop in one year followed by a light crop in another. Niria can be part of its management, but it
does not guarantee equal harvests each year.
3. Does July–October mean I can treat any mango tree then?
No. The treatment must be after fruit harvest, permitted by the current Niria directions and suitable for
the tree’s age, size and condition. The season alone does not supply a method or dose.
4. Should I spray it or apply it to soil?
Use only the route specifically permitted on the supplied Niria pack for the eligible trees. Do not infer a
route from SC or transfer another paclobutrazol product’s programme.
5. Will it guarantee flowering or a higher yield?
No. Flowering and fruit set also depend on tree condition, timing and overall orchard management. Use only a
complete, appropriate programme.
