Definition
Makes something fruitful, productive, or successful; causes to bear fruit or produce results.
Etymology
Third-person singular present tense of fructify, from Latin fructificare, combining fructus (fruit) and facere (to make).
Kelly Says
The verb 'fructifies' appears in economic and biological texts because it captures something both literal—fruit trees actually bearing fruit—and metaphorical, like investments bearing returns. This linguistic versatility shows how agricultural terminology expanded into every discipline.
