The harvested plants can be processed at a Farmer's workshop with a "process plants" task/order, which will produce the growths and seeds. (I just tested this in 52.04, I first noticed it in 52.03 but tasks from order couldn't find specified plants, and now they can.)

But Quarry bushes hav long produced plants that required going through the "Process plant to bag" task at the Farmer's workshop, see https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Farmer%27s_workshop , only now they don't also produce extra leaves.

Hmm, it does seem to be only creating 1 leaf per plant, though.

Indeed processing the Quarry Bush plant will produce extra leaves in addition to the rock nuts, so it is still technically possible to have a less productive Quarry Bush farm.

This has a more severe effect on other plants as well as modded plants. For example, in the Advanced Agriculture mod, the thread producing plants such as Pig Tails have growths which contain the seeds. So it is impossible to have a plant cloth industry if using that mod.

OK, so if a general "process plants" task picks up a quarry bush, it'll produce 1 leaf and some rock nuts, but a "Process plant to bag" task will produce a stack of 5 leaves and some rock nuts. So, there is also the issue of quarry bushes being allowed for both tasks.
