Agricultural science and technology parks (ASTPs) represent an important growth pole in China's agricultural modernization. Clarifying their diffusion laws can optimize the technological process improve its efficiency. Our study uses disaggregated spatial information model to analyze ASTP a heterogeneous space. We constructed comprehensive index system evaluate environmental quality introduced equation calculate probability. applied this framework real-world scenario: apple planting of Yangling Loess Plateau, China. The results indicated: 1) environment Plateau advantageous producing area showed strong heterogeneity caused by climate, topography, external transportation links. 2) Under combined effects distance heterogeneity, pattern was expansion supplemented hierarchical banded diffusion, 3) attenuation effect, frictional effect be decreased improving quality. These promote regional balanced ASTP-driven development.
