Abstract: The use of biostimulants in plants can enchace their physiological functions, promote growth, and mitigate the impact of stress factors on plants. Plant extract are one of the sources of biostimulants that have been extensively explored in crop recently. Plant extracts can enchace plant growth at all stage, including germination, harvest, and even post-harvest. A variety of beneficial compound in plant extracts, such a secondary metabolites, growth-promoting hormones, vitamins, and other bioactive compounds. Recent research indicates that several factors influence the effect of plant extract on plants, such as the type of plant used for the extract, the type of terget plant, concentration, and extraction method. Concern about the effectiveness of this biostimulants are required in order to find the best formula for incresing crop quality and yield.
