Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate whether it is possible to further increase the strength and productivity of plants through the use of biological products, determine the effectiveness of these products in agriculture and thus validate the use of new alternative technological proposals.   Theoretical Framework: Corn, one of the main food and energy crops in Brazil and the world. Sustainability is supported by amino acids and micronutrients, as well as by appropriate fungi and bacteria, from the new agroecological model of agriculture, which must, however, be combined with increased productivity in agriculture.   Method: The methodology adopted for this research comprises a field survey of a scientific nature, with a quantitative approach.   Results and Discussion: What we conclude from this study is that although there is no significant difference, there is a difference in kilograms per hectare, which justifies the technique (humic and fulvic acids are associated with beneficial microorganisms) because it compensates for the costs and continues to be an economic advantage for rural areas and farmers.   Research Implications: The issues are outlined in the text, presenting a practical view of field application with feedback to the farmer.   Originality/Value: The contribution in terms of novelty that this research makes lies in the approaches that are taken and new methodologies and applications. Its adequacy and value are justified as being adequate by the statement that more research along the same lines is needed.
