Lixian County is located in the northeast of Longnan City, Gansu Province, in the middle and lower reaches of the Wuding River, with rugged terrain. Due to the complex terrain, it is not conducive to the development of traditional cultivated land agriculture. The economic development of Lixian county in Gansu province has been relatively slow, and the people's living standards are relatively low, which is not considered rich.

In order to promote rural revitalization, Lixian county government vigorously develops characteristic mountain agriculture. Characteristic mountain agriculture refers to the selection of suitable planting methods of mountain crops according to the natural conditions and climate characteristics of mountainous areas, and the development of agricultural industry by using mountain resources. This development model conforms to the actual situation of Lixian County, and also helps farmers to increase their income.
