Improving Crop Performance and Quality with Biostimulants
Plant biostimulants are an important tool for modern agriculture as part of an integrated crop management system; helping make agriculture more sustainable and resilient. Biostimulants contain substances and microorganisms whose function when applied to plants or the rhizosphere, is to stimulate natural processes to improve overall crop health and performance. With biostimulants, growers enhance their crops’ natural potential to tolerate abiotic stress in changing climate conditions, improve nutrient use efficiency, and deliver more abundant, high-quality yields. Biostimulant solutions enable farmers to produce more with less and in a sustainable way.
Resistance to environmental stresses
Biostimulants can enhance plants' tolerance to abiotic stress, such as drought or extreme temperatures. The use of biostimulants can help mitigate the negative impact of climate change, extreme weather events, and overall challenging climatic conditions.
Soil Health
Some biostimulants can improve soil health and fertility by improving soil parameters and functions. This can have a positive impact on soil restoration and water use efficiency; key for ensuring long-term soil fertility.
Crop quality
Biostimulants can improve crop quality, yield and contribute to more vigorous and healthy plants, which leads to less food waste and supports grower prosperity; both critical for a sustainable food system.
