Under the intensifying constraints of resources and environment, reducing fertilizer use while enhancing efficiency in China’s grain production has become imperative. This study empirically analyzes effect agricultural technical services on reduction wheat using 2024 micro-survey data. Agricultural exert a significantly negative influence fertilization intensity among growers. In comparison with non-adopters, adopters achieve amounting to 8.351 kg/mu (equivalent 125.265 kg/ha) realize decrease chemical costs CNY 26.735/mu (or USD 56.625/ha). Additionally, from perspective service components heterogeneity, soil testing, formula fertilization, mechanical straw returning contribute reduction. From model if farmers participating market-oriented, cooperative, industrialized discontinue participation, their application would increase by 5.43%, 7.96%, 12.79%, respectively. Finally, this calls government further leverage technological dissemination advantages technology institutions, guide reduce fertilizers, so as accelerate realization more sustainable agriculture.
