Can Biostimulants Help Secure Crop Yields Amidst Growing Agricultural Challenges?

As arable farming faces increasing pressures from the elimination of chemical active ingredients, stricter fertilization regulations, and more frequent extreme weather events, the search for innovative solutions to maintain crop yields is intensifying. Plant biostimulants are emerging as a potential tool to help farmers navigate these challenges. A webinar hosted by top agrar and Nufarm on March 4, 2026, will explore the role of biostimulants in modern agriculture.

What are Plant Biostimulants?

Plant biostimulants are substances or microorganisms that, when applied to plants or the rhizosphere, enhance nutrient uptake, nutrient efficiency, tolerance to abiotic stress, and/or crop quality traits, regardless of their nutrient content. They differ from fertilizers, which directly supply nutrients, by working to optimize the plant’s own processes.

Webinar Details: Insights from Farmers and Experts

The webinar will feature Stefan Vogelsang, a farmer and influencer, sharing his practical experiences with the biostimulant NuActivator in corn cultivation. Jobst von Arenstorff, a specialist consultant, will provide an industry perspective on the use, evaluation, and classification of biostimulants. Bernhard Eichinger, a product manager and specialist consultant from Nufarm, will present the scientific background and further findings related to biostimulant technology.

The Growing Need for Sustainable Agricultural Practices

The agricultural landscape is evolving rapidly. Regulations are changing, and climate change is creating more unpredictable growing conditions. Biostimulants offer a potential pathway towards more sustainable and resilient farming practices by helping plants better cope with stress and utilize available resources efficiently.

NuActivator: A Case Study in Biostimulant Application

Stefan Vogelsang’s experience with NuActivator, as will be discussed in the webinar, provides a real-world example of how biostimulants can be integrated into existing farming operations. His insights will be valuable for farmers considering adopting this technology.

Looking Ahead

The webinar on March 4, 2026, promises to be a valuable resource for farmers, agronomists, and anyone interested in the future of sustainable agriculture. By bringing together practical experience and expert knowledge, it aims to shed light on the potential of plant biostimulants to secure crop yields in a changing world.
