Abstract

The use of biostimulants has shown promise in modern agriculture, promoting gains in crop growth and productivity. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different biostimulant management systems on corn. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with 12 treatments, including a control and various biostimulants alone (Rizos®, Onix®, Bioevolution®, Meli-x®, Biomax® Azum) or combined with algae extracts (Bioenergy®). The Pioneer® cultivar P3340VYHR was used. Agronomic variables such as ear diameter, number of rows per ear, number of grains per row, 100-grain weight, and grain yield were evaluated. The treatments with Meli-x®, Biomax® Azum, and their combinations with algae demonstrated the highest productivity, exceeding 10,500 kg ha-1. The data indicate that the use of biostimulants, especially in combination with algae, promotes agronomic and economic gains in corn crops.
