General Information
Relations
Overview
EN 17700-3:2024 (CEN) provides guidance for justifying claims that a plant biostimulant improves tolerance to abiotic stress. It standardizes how manufacturers, laboratories, researchers and regulatory bodies demonstrate and communicate stress‑tolerance claims so products can be reliably assessed for market placement under the Fertilising Products Regulation (EU) 2019/1009.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and audience: Aimed at manufacturers, technical centres, testing labs, notified bodies and market surveillance authorities involved in placing or evaluating plant biostimulants.
- Terminology: Defines key terms such as abiotic stress (thermal, light, mechanical, water, chemical), tolerance to abiotic stress, agronomic markers and stress markers.
- Claim formulation: Labels must clearly state the demonstrated effect and target crop(s) (for example, “improves tolerance to drought stress on woody perennials”).
- Trial design - controlled approach:
- Preferred method: trials under controlled conditions (growth chamber, greenhouse) with at least three treatments: positive control (untreated, stressed - X), tested product (treated, stressed - Y) and negative control (untreated, unstressed - Z).
- Compare X vs Z to verify stress effect; compare Y vs X to demonstrate biostimulant benefit.
- Trial design - without negative control:
- If a negative control is not feasible in the same environment, use plant stress markers to confirm stress exposure and agronomic markers to show improved tolerance.
- Markers and measurements:
- Stress markers: physiological, biochemical or molecular traits (e.g., antioxidants, reactive oxygen species (ROS), gene expression, heat shock proteins, relative water content, electrolyte leakage, chlorophyll fluorescence, lipid peroxides).
- Agronomic markers: measurable plant traits (e.g., biomass, yield components) used to validate practical benefit.
- Documentation & compliance: Trials should follow the general principles and quality criteria in EN 17700-1:2024. Annex ZA links this standard to Regulation (EU) 2019/1009.
Applications
- Supporting marketing claims for plant biostimulant products (drought tolerance, salt tolerance, heat/cold resilience).
- Designing GLP‑compatible trials in R&D and contract testing labs.
- Regulatory dossier preparation for notified bodies and market surveillance authorities.
- Comparative efficacy testing by researchers and technical centres.

Introduction
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) was requested by the European Commission (EC) to
draft European Standards or European Standardization deliverables to support the implementation of
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 of 5 June 2019 [1] laying down rules on the making available on the market
of EU fertilising products (“FPR” or “Fertilising Products Regulation”).
This standardization request, presented as SR M/564 and relevant amendments, also contributes to the
Communication on “Innovating for Sustainable Growth: A Bio economy for Europe”. The interest in plant
biostimulants has increased significantly in Europe as a valuable tool to use in agriculture.
Standardization was identified as having an important role in order to promote the use of biostimulants.
The work of CEN/TC 455 seeks to improve the reliability of the supply chain, thereby improving the
confidence of farmers, industry, and consumers in biostimulants, and will promote and support
commercialisation of the European biostimulant industry.
This document has been developed to provide guidance for a consistent approach to justify the claims
associated with the use of plant biostimulants.
The definition of plant biostimulants in Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [1] is claims-based. For this reason,
demonstrating that a product is indeed a bona fide plant biostimulant depends on a demonstration of its
function.
The placement of a plant biostimulant on the market does not guarantee effectiveness under all
conditions, as many factors can influence the performance of a plant biostimulant in the field.
Plant biostimulants can be applied in multiple ways: to the soil, on plants, as seed treatment, etc.
This document is applicable to all application types of plant biostimulants.
WARNING — Persons using this document should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This
document does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance
with any national rules.
IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted in accordance with this document be
carried out by suitably trained staff.
