A method and a system for diagnosing a plant disease and an insect pest are provided. The method includes: obtaining an plant image; determining a candidate specie and candidate disease and insect pest information corresponding to at least part of the candidate specie according to the plant image when a current diagnosis mode is a passive diagnosis mode; screening out the candidate disease and insect pest information of the candidate specie according to a first preset condition for the candidate specie with the corresponding candidate disease and insect pest information; and outputting at least part of remaining disease and insect pest information after screening out when there is the remaining disease and insect pest information.

The present invention is a plant growth promoter containing a lignocellulosic biomass, wherein the lignocellulosic biomass has a lignin content of 40% by mass or more and 60% by mass or less and a contact angle with water of 50° or less.
