The three primary goals of sustainable agriculture are maintaining environmental health, ensuring economic profitability, and guaranteeing social and economic equity. Biostimulants are compatible with the most progressive farming practices utilized in integrated crop management. They act as soil conditioners and assist the plants in securing nutrients, increasing crop productivity, and repelling pests. This book aims to shed light on the use of biostimulants in sustainable agriculture and crop production. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe.
