Summary

AbstractPlant biostimulants or agricultural biostimulants, include diverse substances and microorganisms that enhance plant growth. These foster plant growth and development throughout the crop life cycle from seed germination to plant maturity in a number of ways, including improving the efficiency of the plant’s metabolism to induce yield increases and enhanced crop quality; increasing plant tolerance to and recovery from abiotic stresses; facilitating nutrient assimilation, translocation and use; including sugar content, colour, fruit seeding, etc. enhancing quality attributes of produce, rendering water use more efficient; enhancing certain physicochemical properties of the soil and fostering tire development of complementary soil micro-organisms.
