| Abstract |
Emerging evidence reveals that low doses of stress stimulate, and high doses suppress, organism responses - a phenomenon known as hormesis. Here, we propose a framework for harnessing hormesis principles to optimize agrochemical use and mitigate pollution. We discuss how hormesis can be applied in agrochemical context and highlight challenges and needs beyond scientific research, offering a perspective for sustainable environmental solutions. |
