Transition and amplification processes promote the adoption of agroecological principles among producers. This study shows how both are put into practice. To obtain information, 12 semi-structured interviews were conducted with farmers selected through snowball sampling. For amplification, field visits informal carried out farmers. The results reveal a clear distinction between farmers, from those in transition, following conventional. Agroecological practices not only determined by perceived risks associated use fertilizers pesticides show potential to amplify agroecology. Finally, this that transition can be evaluated as different processes.

The assembly of rhizosphere microbial communities is essential for maintaining plant health, yet it influenced by a wide range biotic and abiotic factors. key drivers shaping the composition these communities, however, remain poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed 108 samples evaluated root traits, growth characteristics, soil enzyme activities, metabolites, chemical properties to identify primary determinants community assembly. Across 36 samples, obtained 969,634 high-quality sequences, clustering into 6,284 ASVs predominantly classified Proteobacteria (57.99%), Actinobacteria (30%), Bacteroidetes (5.13%). Our findings revealed that metabolites accounted more variance in compared (ANOVA, F = 1.53, p 0.04), or traits 1.04, 0.001). Seven small molecule including glycerol, sorbitol, phytol, alpha-ketoglutaric acid, were significantly correlated with βNTI, underscoring their role as critical genus Rhizobium , associated βNTI (R 0.25, 0.009), emerged keystone taxon structure.

In recent years, the destruction of soil environment caused by excessive application chemical fertilizers has attracted attention to using organic replace fertilizers. Previous studies have shown that chicken manure fermentation extract (CMFE) as an fertilizer may also directly influence nutrient availability from native pool and application. However, it is unclear whether CMFE can partially replacing reduce amount without reducing cucumber yield. Therefore, experiment was conducted in Yantai Agricultural Science Academy Shandong Province 2018 2019. 2018, five fertilization combinations were set up, namely CK (900 kg·ha−1 fertilizer), T1 (750 +150 L·ha−1 CMFE), T2 (675 +225 T3 (600 +300 CMFE) T4 (525 +375 CMFE).
