The invention relates to a crop husbandry composition comprising an alcohol or mixture of alcohols of the formula (I) R.sub.1—OH (I) wherein R.sub.1 is a linear or branched alkyl having a total number of carbon atoms from 18 to 40; and an alcohol alkoxylate or mixture of alcohol alkoxylates of the formula (II) R.sub.2—O—(C.sub.2H.sub.2zO).sub.x—H (II) wherein R.sub.2 is a linear or branched alkyl having a total number of carbon atoms from 18 to 40, z has a value of 2 or 3, and x has a value of from 1 to 150. The invention extends to a crop husbandry emulsion and to a field solution comprising said crop husbandry composition, and to a method for the cultivation, treatment, and/or protection of plants, crops, seeds, plant propagation material, aquatic environments, soil, or the like.

Compositions with supramolecular structures for agricultural use include a biostimulant, a supramolecular host chemical or a supramolecular guest chemical configured to engage in host-guest chemistry with the biostimulant, and water, are included. Methods of treating a plant to improve nutrient assimilation, water uptake, or vigor, or a combination thereof, include applying an agriculturally effective amount of the composition to the plant are also included.

Stable S-(+)-abscisic acid (S-ABA) non-aqueous liquid solutions are generally achieved without the use of an effective amount of an antioxidant and/or an ultraviolet absorber to S-(+)-abscisic acid. In a preferred embodiment, the stable S-(+)-abscisic acid (S-ABA) nonaqueous liquid solutions includes at least one organic solvent, such as at least one polyethylene glycol, at least one glycol, and/or at least one lactamide and/or at least one pentanoate.

A growth-promoting bacterial agent capable of improving content of soybean oil, preparation method, and use thereof are provided. The growth-promoting bacterial agent is fermented by a DW1 strain, the classification name of the DW1 strain is Bacillus sp., the DW1 strain is deposited in the China Center for Type Culture Collection on Jul. 16, 2021, and the deposit number is CCTCC NO: M 2021889. The growth-promoting bacterial agent of the present disclosure has the ability to dissolve insoluble phosphorus and insoluble potassium and can increase content of readily available phosphorus and readily available potassium in the soil, which has an obvious promoting effect on the growth of soybean and improves soybean yield. The growth-promoting bacterial agent of the present disclosure promotes bacteria and can significantly improve the content of soybean oil. At the same time, it has an affinity of soybean agglutinin and can agglutinate with the soybean agglutinin.

The present disclosure relates generally to therapeutic agents that may be useful as modulators of Integrated Stress Response (ISR) pathway.
