This study investigates the combined effects of gibberellic acid, biochar, and rhizobacteria on wheat growth under cadmium, chromium, and drought stress. Conducted in a greenhouse, the study demonstrates that these treatments significantly improve wheat growth metrics, chlorophyll content, and stress tolerance. The findings highlight the potential of these biostimulants as eco-friendly solutions to enhance wheat resilience and productivity, contributing to global food security.
