This invention is related to the development and use of plant biostimulant based on keratin waste, an abundant and valuable resource, which creates serious problems for the environment due to its recalcitrant nature. The valorization of keratin waste is an example for applying the principles of circular economy, agro-industry wastes are valorized and returned in agriculture contributing to renewable natural resources. It is acknowledged the support obtained through the project Development through innovation (Dezvoltare prin inovare), SMIS 139532, Contract no. 7433/23.12.2021, project cofinanced from the European Regional Development Fund through the Regional Operational Program 2014-2020.
