Due to the interaction of climate, biology, geology and topography, various soil types have been formed in Yunnan Province, and the vertical distribution characteristics of soil are obvious. After preliminary division, there are 16 soil types in the whole province, accounting for 1/4 of the whole country. Among them, red soil accounts for 50% of the land area of the province, which is the most widely distributed and important soil resource in the province, so Yunnan is known as "red soil plateau" and "red land".
