A method for producing an amino acid liquid fertilizer from waste feathers includes: acquiring an enzymatic hydrolysate by performing enzymolysis on feather powder with a complex enzyme; adding acid protease to the enzymatic hydrolysate for enzymolysis; and acquiring the amino acid liquid fertilizer by performing enzyme inactivation on a filtrate acquired by performing filtering after enzymolysis is completed, wherein the complex enzyme includes keratinase and amino acid peptidase. By adopting this method, the enzymolysis rate of the feathers reaches 80% or above and the prepared amino acid liquid fertilizer contains various kinds of amino acids (17 amino acids); and the content of the amino acid can reach 10.12% (by mass fraction) or above and the content of small peptide reaches 9.39% (by mass fraction), which reach the Chinese standard of the amino acid liquid fertilizers without concentration. Thus, the environmental-friendly amino acid liquid fertilizer can be prepared.

A biostimulant concentrate includes purified water and a solubilizer, triacontanol, and an array of brassinosteroids selected from the group consisting of brassinolide, brassinone, dolicholide, homobrassinolide, and combinations thereof. The triacontanol is concentrated as a 95% concentrate that is included in an amount of 2-15 grains per liter of biostimulant concentrate. In one embodiment, 3 grams of triacontanol 95% is used per liter of biostimulant concentrate. The biostimulant is formulated into a foliar spray in one embodiment of the invention. The present inventive formulation is used as an in-furrow application, which is mixed with fertilizer in one aspect of the invention. The present invention is mixed with herbicide and broadcast sprayed in another embodiment of the invention. This broadcast spray can be performed either pre-emergence, or post emergence, or both.
