Human existence depends on a healthy environment and food. Today, agricultural production models based on sustainability have gained importance due to the gradual decrease in resources, the extinction of some living beings, inadequate and unbalanced nutrition, and the emergence of hunger problems. Agricultural control methods are used to protect products from damage that diseases and pests may cause. In this context, agricultural control is a kind of insurance for agricultural areas. Producers and consumers who are aware of sustainable life in a balanced ecosystem have started to prefer the produce and consuming of agricultural based products which are produced with the methods no destroying of nature besides no toxic effects on humans. Based on the sustainability goal, the introduction of biologically sourced plant activators in plant production systems is important in terms of creating an alternative for using of the chemicals inputs in agricultural production. In today's conditions, where environmentally friendly applications are needed more, comprehensive research is needed in line with the principles of sustainability by focusing on studies conducted with plant activators. In this study prepared with these basic justifications, studies conducted on plant activators are examined and the basic concept of sustainability is emphasized.
