Product Overview:
JIKA is a plant growth regulator from Sumitomo Chemical India Ltd. containing Paclobutrazol 23% SC. It is mainly used in mango trees (of 5 years age and older) to promote more uniform flowering, reduce abnormal flowers, increase flower count, and accelerate fruiting.
Summary:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Product Type | Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) |
| Mode / Mechanism of Action | Paclobutrazol is a triazole PGR that suppresses gibberellin biosynthesis, leading to growth regulation, more flowering, less vegetative growth, better bud formation. |
| Major Crop(s) for Use | Mango (trees 5 years old and above) |
| Target Effects | Early flowering, increased flower count, less abnormal flowers, earlier fruiting, well-rounded growth. |
| Dosage & Age-Based Application | - Trees aged 7-15 years: ~15 ml/tree - Trees aged 16-25 years: ~20 ml/tree - Trees older than 25 years: 25–40 ml/tree |
| Time & Method of Application | Best between July-October; application by soil drench or soil furrow drench (5-10 litre water), placed ~30 cm from trunk, 5-10 cm deep in a furrow or soil collar; fill soil back after application. |
| Precautions | Use only once per season; only on trees 5 years old or more; reduce dose in sandy soils (to ~75% in first year, and 50-75% in subsequent uses); follow label instructions. |
Benefits:
- Early & Uniform Flowering - Helps mango trees produce flowers sooner and more uniformly.
- Reduces Abnormal Flowering - Minimises “abnormal” flowers, improving the proportion of normal, productive blooms.
- Increased Flower Count & Yield - Leads to more flowers → more fruits → higher yield.
- Advance Harvest - Enables harvest earlier than usual, which can help achieve better market timing and potentially higher prices.
- Helps Manage Excess Vegetative Growth - By regulating growth, resources are diverted to flowering/fruiting rather than too much foliage.
