Pigeon pea (at flowering initiation stage) — Growth regulation

Pigeon pea (at flowering initiation stage) — Growth regulation: 12.1 g A.I. 30.4 ml formulation; water dilution: 202; waiting period: 48 days

Contains Paclobutrazol 40% as the active ingredient; Formulated as a Suspension Concentrate (SC); PGR category product for growth regulation; Registered use in pigeon pea; Applied at the flowering initiation stage; Gibberellin-biosynthesis-inhibiting mode of action

Paclobutrazol is a triazole-type plant growth retardant that inhibits the biosynthesis of gibberellins by blocking the enzyme ent-kaurene oxidase, a key step in the gibberellin biosynthetic pathway. This reduces cell elongation, resulting in shorter internodes and restricted vegetative growth, while also favouring reproductive development in treated crops.

Kravix (Paclobutrazol 40% SC) is diluted in the recommended volume of water and applied as a foliar spray at the flowering initiation stage in pigeon pea, using standard knapsack or boom sprayers, following the approved product label.

Use strictly as per the directions on the approved product label Wear appropriate personal protective equipment during mixing and spraying Avoid spray drift onto sensitive or non-target crops Keep out of reach of children and away from food, feed, and water sources Store in a cool, dry place in original packaging
