Functional microbial agents play a crucial role in various fields such as agriculture, feed fermentation, aquaculture, and environmental protection. However, traditional microbial agents were confronted with critical challenges such as limited shelf-life, reduced activity, and inconsistent efficacy. In this case, we innovatively proposed the concept of Directed Micro-Ecology (DME) and developed its application system, including a core module named DME intelligent fermentor (DME25). Over 40 functional strains, including bacterial strains and fungus strains, were successfully cultured to 10∼50 ×10⁸CFU/mL within 20∼48 h and maintained a relatively low contamination rate (<2.5%). Finally, the stability and effectiveness of these DME-fermented strains were validated in different application areas, all of which exhibited perfect functional characteristics. Firstly, the bacillus strains inhibited the progression of wilt disease and significantly improved the growth of tomatoes. Secondly, all tested lactobacillus strains improved the nutrition and quality of fermented feed, complying with feed industry standards. Lastly, the ammonia nitrogen concentration, nitrite concentration of aquaculture water and phosphate concentration, COD of aquaculture tail water were significantly reduced within 1∼4 d. The successful application of the DME intelligent fermentor in different fields marks a pivotal breakthrough in technological innovation of microbial agents on-site one-step fermentation. This technological advancement opens new avenues for enhancing the stability and effectiveness of microbial agents, infusing powerful impetus to the development of microbial application.
