Protein hydrolysates are mixtures of amino acids, peptides, and other small organic molecules derived from the controlled hydrolysis of natural proteins.
India’s commitment to sustainable agriculture has historically been anchored on the balance between tradition and science. Recent advances in plant biostimulants have offered promising tools for improving crop productivity under climate challenges.
Among these, protein hydrolysate (PH)-based biostimulants have emerged as one of the most significant innovations, providing an environmentally acceptable alternative to regular fertilisers.
