Abstract: AbstractThis chapter describes the role that cordyceps sinensis resources1 plays in the socioeconomic development in Tibetan-inhabited areas of Qinghai Province, emphasizing the importance of protecting the eco-environment as the basis for developing the resources. Reform of the pasture contract system must be intensified in order to grant Tibetan herders resource ownership in their contract pastures as an incentive for them to protect cordyceps sinensis and the eco-environment.
