To promote the sustainable development of Traditional Chinese Medicine industry in Guizhou Province, and to effectively improve the agricultural planting benefit, the 2012 annual planting survey of Traditional Chinese Medicine was carried out; and analysis was conducted from the three aspects of the total area, yield and output value. The results showed that the total area, yield and output value of planted Traditional Chinese Medicines and wild plants conservation reached 267 918. 1 hm2, 1 034 610 t and 9 092 740 thousand Yuan, respectively. Among the nine cities (prefectures) of Guizhou Province, Zunyi had the maximum values, which indicated that Zunyi had relatively great planting scale of Traditional Chinese Medicines, but the land productivity was low. Therefore, Guizhou Province should focus on improving the yield benefit per unit to increase the peasants' income, and take it as the top priority in the future in the development strategy of Traditional Chinese Medicines in Guizhou Province.
