Anji Mountain Forest Farm

　　, connected with Chenglong Town of the same county to the south, and adjacent to Quannan County to the west. It spans approximately 12 kilometers from east to west and about 12.2 kilometers from north to south. Established in 1957, the farm is a directly governed, forestry-focused, subdistrict-level public institution under the county government. It oversees two sub-farms, Wangju and ?ying, as well as one administrative village, Linzhong Village.

　　The mountain ranges within the farm belong to the Jiulian Mountain system, and the rivers are part of the Poyang Lake water system. The area features a subtropical humid monsoon climate, characterized by mild and moist weather, abundant rainfall, an average annual temperature of 18.7°C, a maximum temperature of 37.1°C, and an extreme minimum temperature of -6°C. The average annual rainfall is 1,526 mm, with a frost-free period of 286 days and an average annual sunshine duration of 1,783.8 hours—climate conditions that are conducive to forest growth. The terrain is mainly low mountains and high hills, sloping generally from south to north, with elevations typically ranging from 300 to 800 meters. The highest peak, Limei Mountain, reaches 974 meters, and slopes generally range between 26° and 35°. The mountain soils are predominantly red soils over metamorphic rock parent material, mostly loamy with deep soil layers, most exceeding 60 cm, and humus layers usually between 5–20 cm, indicating medium fertility. Evergreen broad-leaved forests are the main vegetation type, with major tree species including various types of evergreen oaks (such as castanopsis fargesii, castanopsis eyrei, castanopsis lamontii, castanopsis carlesii, and castanopsis carlesii var. sheni), along with Chinese fir, Masson pine, schima superba, camphor tree, machilus thunbergii, machilus pauhoi, ziziphus jujuba, liquidambar formosana, and alniphyllum fortunei. Bamboo forests also cover a significant area. Shrubs mainly consist of smilax china, eurya japonica, rhododendron latoucheae, rhus chinensis, vaccinium bracteatum, litsea cubeba, and small bamboo species. Herbaceous plants are mostly represented by dicranopteris linearis, imperata cylindrica, ferns, and allium macrostemon. Vines include akebia quinata, actinidia chinensis, and millettia reticulata. Wildlife in the area includes sambar deer, wild boar, muntjac, bamboo rats, bamboo partridge, silver pheasant, king cobras, loaches, and groupers.

　　The total area of the farm is 6,093 hectares, of which 5,952.4 hectares are forested land, accounting for 97.7% of the total area. This includes 2,267 hectares of planted Chinese fir forests, 667 hectares of bamboo forests, and 3,018.4 hectares of natural broad-leaved forests (including 1,000 hectares of national public welfare forests), resulting in a forest coverage rate of 89.1%. The current standing timber volume is 420,000 cubic meters, and there are 1.1 million standing bamboo culms. Based on the natural conditions of the farm and its dominant evergreen broad-leaved forest characteristics, only one management zone—timber production forest—has been designated to cultivate fast-growing, high-yield, high-quality timber to meet the needs of national development.

　　The farm focuses on cultivating fast-growing Chinese fir plantations and upgrading low-yield bamboo forests to strengthen economic development potential. Each year, it completes afforestation of approximately 100 hectares of Chinese fir, tending of around 700 hectares of young Chinese fir forests, sanitation and thinning of about 300 hectares of Chinese fir, main harvest of roughly 100 hectares of Chinese fir, and low-yield bamboo improvement of about 100 hectares.

　　The farm continues to adhere to the principle of focusing on forest management, combining afforestation with sustainable utilization. It emphasizes the development of fast-growing Chinese fir plantations to enhance the enterprise’s long-term growth potential. Leveraging resource advantages, it has introduced foreign investment to build the Anji Mountain Eco-Tourism Resort, integrating accommodation, entertainment, and leisure.
