The present invention discloses composition and formulations to enhance nutrient use efficiency in plants. The composition is designed to enhance nutrient uptake, optimize fertilizer utilization. It comprises brown seaweed extract combined with selected botanical extracts, processed using a water-ethanol cold percolation extraction method that preserves key bioactive compounds such as phenolics, flavonoids, tannins etc. This formulation improves nutrient use efficiency by increasing nutrient uptake. Field trials across different plant species confirm a 20% reduction in fertilizer usage without yield loss, demonstrating its efficacy in improving nutrient uptake and plant metabolism. By reducing fertilizer dependency, the invention promotes sustainable agriculture while minimizing environmental impact. Its versatile application as a foliar spray, root drench, or fertilizer additive makes it adaptable to diverse crop types and farming systems, providing a scalable, eco-friendly alternative to conventional fertilizer-based growth enhancement methods.
