Plant Material as a Novel Tool in Designing and Formulating Modern Biostimulants—Analysis of Botanical Extract from <i>Linum usitatissimum</i> L.

Nowadays, researchers are looking into next-generation biostimulants that can be designed as a dedicated agronomic tool based on plant materials. The aim of the present study was to develop a novel biostimulating product, based on plant material in the form of linseed aqueous extracts. The scope of...
