Scientists, extension specialists, and growers are increasingly seeking sustainable solutions to ensure global food security while minimizing environmental impact. One effective approach involves using biodegradable mulching films alongside plant-derived biostimulants.<\/p><p data-start=\"567\" data-end=\"1017\">A greenhouse study evaluated the morpho-physiological and nutritive responses of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) to a tropical plant extract (PE) biostimulant and various plastic mulches. Two biodegradable films, Mater-Bi\u00ae 1 and Mater-Bi\u00ae 2, were compared with standard black polyethylene (LDPE) and bare soil. Results showed that Mater-Bi\u00ae 1 yielded comparable marketable fresh weight to LDPE, while Mater-Bi\u00ae 2 achieved the highest crop productivity.<\/p><p data-start=\"1019\" data-end=\"1501\">When averaged over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hello-nature.com\/int\/scientific-publications\/\">biostimulant<\/a> applications, lettuce grown with Mater-Bi\u00ae 2 displayed superior quality traits, including higher K, Ca, total ascorbic acid, and carotenoid content. Biostimulants boost lettuce performance further: the combined use of PE biostimulant with any mulch significantly increased yield by 30%. PE application enhanced SPAD index, total chlorophyll, and mineral content (P +10%, Ca +17%) compared to untreated plants, while reducing nitrate content by 23%.<\/p><p data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1924\">Notably, the synergistic effect of Mater-Bi\u00ae 2 mulch with PE biostimulant amplified total ascorbic acid by 168% over untreated lettuce. These findings demonstrate that biostimulants boost lettuce growth and nutritional value, offering a practical strategy for leafy vegetable growers. By adopting biodegradable mulches and vegetal-derived biostimulants, greenhouse production can become more sustainable and productive.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4193794 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4193794\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Publication: Agronomy<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f10b506 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f10b506\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default elementor-inline-editing pen\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"title\" data-pen-placeholder=\"Type Here...\">E.
