Agronomic efficiency using biostimulants in extensive crops
In agricultural production systems, crops are often exposed to suboptimal environmental conditions. Plant biostimulants (PBs) are inputs designed to enhance crop adaptation, growth, stress tolerance, and/or quality.

| Sumario: | In agricultural production systems, crops are often exposed to suboptimal environmental conditions. Plant biostimulants (PBs) are inputs designed to enhance crop adaptation, growth, stress tolerance, and/or quality. An extensive body of research on this topic reports yield increases between 15% and 20%. The present study aimed to evaluate crop responses to PBs in Entre Ríos region through field trials conducted on wheat (41 trials), soybean (37 trials), and corn (16 trials) across multiple growing seasons. Combined data showed that soybean and wheat yields were significantly increased with PB application—by 5% and 3,4%, respectively. Yield gains and agronomic efficiency were more pronounced in less favorable environments, with single applications proving more effective than multiple ones. In contrast, no yield benefits were observed in corn. |
