Affected by the natural conditions, the farming industry in the Qinghai-Tibet region is underdeveloped, and the farming industry is generally distributed in what kind of areas

The farming industry in the Qinghai-Tibet region is mainly distributed in the lower terrain of the river valley, such as the Yarlung Zangbo River Valley and Huangshui Valley. Compared with the altitude of 4000 above the Tibetan Plateau, the river valley area is lower in altitude, heat conditions are better, and the terrain is flat, fertile soil, irrigation water is sufficient, is conducive to the development of farming, is the most important agricultural area of the Tibetan Plateau.

The agriculture developed in the valley area is called valley agriculture. Alpine region of the river valley area, due to the terrain is lower than the high mountains, higher temperatures, frost-free period longer than the mountains, precipitation conditions are better, the river can be used as a source of irrigation water, the mountains between the valley are generally forested, so that the valley soil humus is richer, the soil is more fertile, is suitable for farming in mountainous areas, the river valley area of the developed agriculture, known as the river valley agriculture. For example, China's qinghai province yellow river valley, huangshui valley are typical valley agriculture area, is the main farming area in qinghai province. The Yarlung Zangbo River valley is also river valley agriculture. The Tibetan plateau area is also there.
