Vestar: Unlocking Higher Yields and Healthier Plants

Farmers across India are constantly looking for ways to improve crop productivity and quality without overburdening their soil or plants. Whether it’s fruit plants, succulent plants, or other high-value crops, one factor remains the same — healthy, balanced plant growth is essential for better yields. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by using a plant growth regulator like Vestar. Manufactured by Bharat Certis, Vestar is scientifically formulated to improve plant structure, flowering, fruit size, and yield while maintaining a healthy balance between foliage and fruit development.

Understanding Vestar

Vestar is a plant growth retardant with the technical name Paclobutrazol 40% SC. Its mode of action is based on the inhibition of gibberellic acid biosynthesis. Gibberellic acid is a natural plant hormone that promotes elongation of stems and shoots. By controlling its overproduction, Vestar ensures sturdier stems, stronger roots, and channels more energy toward flowering and fruit development.

Why Farmers Choose Vestar

Farmers cultivating crops such as mangoes, pigeon pea, fruit plants, and ornamental succulent plants have seen remarkable results after using Vestar.

• Improved Flowering and Higher Yield: Promotes optimal flowering and fruiting.
• Better Fruit Quality: Enhances color, size, and market value of fruits.
• Stronger Roots and Branches: Builds sturdier plants resilient to stress.
• Efficient Nutrient Utilization: Reduces unnecessary stem growth to channel energy into flowering and fruit development.

How Vestar Works

Vestar is an antagonist of the plant hormone gibberellin. By slowing internode elongation, it:

• Produces shorter, sturdier plants
• Enhances root growth
• Promotes early fruit set
• Increases seed set in plants

Application Guidelines

Correct usage is important. For example, in pigeon pea:

• Dosage: 30 ml per acre in 200 litres of water
• Time of Application: Flowering initiation stage

Always follow Bharat Certis guidelines for other crops for best results.

Suitable Crops

• Fruit plants – Mango, citrus, grapes, pomegranate, etc.
• Succulent plants – Ornamentals and decorative crops.
• Pulses like pigeon pea.
• Other crops requiring controlled vegetative growth and enhanced flowering.

Advantages in Mango Orchards

• Achieving uniform and timely flowering
• Reducing excess vegetative growth
• Improving fruit set and size for better market prices
• Balancing energy between leaves and fruits

Economic Benefits for Farmers

Improved flowering and fruit quality increase market value. Optimized nutrient uptake reduces fertilizer costs, while stronger plant structure minimizes crop loss during adverse conditions.

Tips for Best Results

• Use at the recommended growth stage
• Follow correct dosage
• Combine with good irrigation, pest control, and nutrient management
• Monitor plant response for future adjustments
