Katyayani Fast is a plant growth regulator containing Paclobutrazol 23% SC, which works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of gibberellins, reducing unnecessary canopy expansion, and pushing available nutrients to productive growth, such as flowering and fruiting, improving the yields significantly. The Katyayani Fast plant growth regulator can be applied as a collar drench or soil drench, and is effective on a wide range of plants, like vegetables, pulses, oilseeds, and plantation crops, making it very versatile.
Key Features & Benefits of Katyayani Fast:
Controls Vegetation: Katyayani Fast helps control vegetative growth, reducing shoot elongation and unwanted leaf growth.
Improves Flowering: The Fast plant growth regulator helps improve the flowering window and syncs up flowering for uniform yields.
Better Yields: Katyayani Fast helps improve the fruit size, color, and quality by providing essential nutrition for better yields.
Increases Crop Growth: Fast plant growth regulator also improves overall crop quality for quick crop growth for early harvests.
Enhanced Stress Tolerance: Katyayani Fast also improves the crop's natural stress tolerance system for better crop health.
Katyayani Fast Uses — Suitable Crops:
Katyayani Fast covers both orchard and field crops across India:
Fruit and Orchard Crops: Mango, Pomegranate, Grapes, Cashew, Apple, Guava, Banana, Date Palm
Vegetable Crops: Onion, Garlic, Potato, Chilli, Tomato, Cauliflower, Brinjal, Sponge Gourd
Pulses and Oilseeds: Groundnut, Soybean, Black Gram, Green Gram, Peas
Katyayani Fast Dose — Recommended Dose:
The Katyayani Fast dose per litre for foliar application across all vegetable and field crops is 5–8 ml per 15 litres of water. For mango and orchard trees, the dose is applied as a soil drench based on tree age.
Application Method | Crop | Dose | Timing |
|---|
Collar / Soil Drench | Mango (7–15 years) | 14 ml per tree in water | After harvest — pre-flowering window |
Collar / Soil Drench | Mango (16–25 years) | 19 ml per tree in water | After harvest — pre-flowering window |
Collar / Soil Drench | Mango (25+ years) | 30 ml per tree in water | After harvest — pre-flowering window |
Collar / Soil Drench | Pomegranate | 3 ml per tree in 2 litres of water | Post-harvest, pre-flower initiation |
Foliar Spray | Vegetables and Field Crops | 5–8 ml per 15 litres of water | At active vegetative growth stage |
Foliar Spray | Onion, Garlic, Potato, Groundnut | 3–5 ml per 15 litres of water | During canopy development stage |
How To Use Katyayani Fast:
Measure the required dose of Katyayani Fast as per the crop and application method in the dose table above.
For soil or collar drench in orchard crops, dissolve the measured quantity in 5–10 litres of clean water and apply directly to the root zone or collar area around the base of the tree.
Ensure the soil is adequately moist before applying the drench — this improves root absorption and movement through the xylem.
For foliar spray on vegetables and field crops, mix the dose in 15 litres of clean water, agitate well, and spray evenly on all above-ground plant parts.
Apply during early morning or late evening — midday application under direct sunlight reduces absorption efficiency.
For mango, apply after the harvest of the previous season's fruits and well before the expected flowering window — timing is critical for the best flowering advance response.
Do not apply more than the recommended dose — excess Paclobutrazol can cause excessive growth retardation and reduce yield.
Rinse the sprayer thoroughly with clean water after use.
Best Time to Apply:
Apply Katyayani Fast in the early morning or late evening. For mango orchards, the timing of application relative to harvest and expected flowering is the most critical factor — apply post-harvest and allow 45–60 days before the natural flowering window for the best synchronized flowering response.
Frequency of Application & Re-Entry Period:
Frequency of Application: Apply once per season for orchard crops like Mango — one well-timed soil drench per flowering cycle gives the best results. For vegetable crops, one foliar spray at the vegetative growth stage is generally sufficient. Do not repeat within the same season, as excess Paclobutrazol accumulates in the soil.
Re-Entry Period: Katyayani Fast has low mammalian toxicity. No strict re-entry restriction applies. Allow foliar spray to dry before re-entering the field.
Tank-Mix Compatibility: Compatible with most foliar fertilizers. Avoid mixing with alkaline products. Always perform a jar test before mixing with unfamiliar inputs.
Safety Precautions & Handling:
Wear gloves and a face mask when measuring and mixing Katyayani Fast.
Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes — rinse immediately with clean water if contact occurs.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during mixing or application.
Keep away from children, livestock, food, and water sources.
Never exceed the recommended dose — excess application causes severe growth retardation and yield loss.
Dispose of empty containers per local agricultural waste guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) — Katyayani Fast:
Q1. What is Katyayani Fast used for?
Katyayani Fast is used to control excessive vegetative growth, advance and synchronise flowering, improve fruit set, and raise the quality and yield of fruit and vegetable crops. It is most widely used in mango cultivation and is also effective on Pomegranate, Grapes, Onion, Potato, Groundnut, Chilli, Tomato, and other vegetable and pulse crops.
Q2. How does Paclobutrazol 23% SC work as a plant growth regulator?
Paclobutrazol inhibits the enzyme responsible for gibberellin biosynthesis in the plant, reducing the hormonal signal that drives shoot elongation and leaf growth. With vegetative growth slowed down, the plant redirects its assimilates and energy toward flower bud initiation, fruit set, and quality development — the core mechanism that makes this Fast plant growth regulator so effective in flowering crops.
Q3. When is the best time to apply Katyayani Fast to mango?
Apply Katyayani Fast as a collar or soil drench after the harvest of the current season's fruits — typically 45–60 days before the expected natural flowering window. This timing gives Paclobutrazol adequate time to be absorbed, translocated, and active in the growing points before flowering begins.
Q4. Can Katyayani Fast be used on vegetable crops?
Yes. This Fast plant growth regulator is suitable for Onion, Garlic, Potato, Groundnut, Soybean, Chilli, Tomato, Brinjal, and other vegetable crops. Apply as a foliar spray at 5–8 ml per 15 litres of water during the active vegetative growth stage for controlled canopy development and improved yield potential.
