Which province is Linfen?

Linfen, also known as Pingyang, Woniu and Guo Hua, is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Shanxi Province, located in the southwest of Shanxi, with Taiyue in the east and Changzhi and Jincheng as neighbors. It faces the Yellow River in the west, facing Yan 'an and Weinan in Shaanxi across the river, starting from Hanxinling in the north and bordering Jinzhong and Lvliang. The south is bordered by Yuncheng, which is named because it is located on the bank of Fenshui. Located in semi-arid and semi-humid monsoon climate zone, it belongs to temperate continental climate.

Linfen, with a long history, is one of the important birthplaces of the Chinese nation and the cradle of the Yellow River civilization, and is known as "the first capital of China". It is an important grain and cotton production base in northern China, which is rich in wheat and cotton. Known as "the hometown of cotton and wheat" and "fertile land".

Land resources:

Linfen City has a total land area of 20,275 square kilometers, and the terrain outline is generally concave. Surrounded by mountains, the middle is flat. The whole territory is divided into three topographic units: mountains, hills and basins. Linfen basin runs through the middle of Linfen city and divides the whole uplift plateau into two parts: mountains and mountains. Taiyue Mountain and Zhongtiao Mountain are in the east from north to south, and Luliang Mountain is in the west.

Among them, Pingchuan area is 3,933.4 square kilometers, accounting for 19.4% of the total area, hilly area 1042 1.4 square kilometers, accounting for 5 1.4% of the total area, and mountainous area is 5,920.2 square kilometers, accounting for 29.2% of the total area.

Affected by hydrothermal conditions, the soil in Linfen City is fully developed, forming a deep clay layer with rich nutrition. The widely distributed zonal soil types are cinnamon soil, grassland meadow soil, brown soil and swamp soil.

Stable and high-yield fertile fields are concentrated in the whole city. Because of the "two rivers, three mountains and five ridges", the land types are diverse, and the area suitable for forest and grass is large, but the forest coverage rate is low and soil erosion is serious. Reserve land resources are still abundant, and a large number of saline-alkali wasteland, sandy wasteland and marshland can be improved and reclaimed for agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry, but drainage, river regulation and bank protection expansion projects are needed, and the development investment is very large.
