Biostimulants are added to soil, crops, seeds, and other substrates to promote natural plant processes aimed at improving plant nutrient performance. Biostimulants improve plant performance, crop yield, and abiotic stress sensitivity.

Frequent field plowing and increased use of chemical-based fertilizers has resulted in soil degradation. In the near future, growing populations and their changing patterns of consumption are likely to create a significant demand for food, thus pressuring existing arable land resources.

Biostimulants serve as an environmentally friendly solution that not only enhances the crop yield quality and quantity but also enriches the soil's structure and nutritional value. Therefore, a decrease in the supply of arable land is anticipated to present major opportunities in the near future to the global market for biostimulants.

Due to significant growth potential, the growing interest of investors has led to multiple developments in the industry.
