Is Bacillus laterosporus an AAPFCO-listed plant biostimulant, and what claim language has AAPFCO accepted?
Bacillus laterosporus — also listed under its reclassified name Brevibacillus laterosporus — appears in AAPFCO's plant biostimulant source data as group 35, establishing it as a recognized microbial biostimulant source under the AAPFCO framework.
The AAPFCO-accepted claims for Bacillus laterosporus center on yield: specifically, the claim that it may increase yield, with increased lettuce yield cited as the supporting example. Growers researching Bacillus laterosporus biostimulant claims or Brevibacillus laterosporus AAPFCO status will find this the extent of what the accepted data supports — no additional crop categories or efficacy claims are listed in this record.
