Central Africa is one of the least developed countries in the world announced by the United Nations. The economy is dominated by agriculture, and the industrial base is weak. More than 80% of industrial products are imported. Diamonds, coffee, cotton and wood are the four pillars of the economy. In addition to coffee and other pillars of the national economy, the dense water network in Central Africa also provides considerable fishery resources, but the fishing equipment is backward, and fishermen mainly rely on manual fishing. 1In the early 1990s, it reached three agreements with the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank to implement the structural adjustment plan. Due to the continuous political turmoil, the economy is deteriorating. The two wars in June, 5438 +2002 10 and March, 2003, severely damaged the economy of Central Africa, destroyed the infrastructure, failed to guarantee the safety, and the production could not be carried out normally, resulting in economic losses of 1 trillion CFA francs. After President Bozize took office, he rectified forestry and mining, strictly examined and re-issued mining licenses, cracked down on tax evasion, intensified anti-corruption efforts, and strived to win foreign aid.

In 2008, the Central African government made great efforts to rectify the tax authorities, improve the investment environment, strengthen the management and regulation of forests and mineral resources, implement import tax cuts for food and building materials, and stabilize oil prices by expanding oil depots. However, the chronic diseases such as single economic structure and weak industrial base in China and Africa have not changed; The output of pillar industries such as coffee and seed cotton has dropped sharply due to abnormal climate; Affected by the international financial crisis, the export income of timber and diamonds has fallen sharply; Generally speaking, the economic situation in Central Africa is still very difficult.

The arable land is about 6.5 million hectares and the arable land is about 600,000 hectares. Forestry once developed rapidly, producing about 80% logs in 2000. 680,000 cubic meters, an increase of 2 1% over the previous year, surpassing diamonds to become the largest export industry. Due to the unstable domestic situation, timber exports decreased sharply in 2003 and rebounded in 2004. The Central African government has promulgated a forestry law to impose sanctions on companies that fail to submit monthly production and export reports on time.

The forest resources in Central Africa and China are concentrated in two areas, with 3.8 million hectares in the southwest and 1.4 million hectares in the central and eastern regions. The main tree species are barrel-shaped Azadirachta indica, cylindrical Azadirachta indica, Solanum lyratum Thunb and tricolor wood. The total stock in these two areas is about 80 million cubic meters. In addition, there are 4000 hectares of artificial forests, including eucalyptus, rags, Toona sinensis and eucalyptus globulus.

Many kinds of animals and plants inhabit and grow in central Africa, although its forest area accounts for only 8% of the total land area. 4%, but there are more than 300 kinds of trees. Poachers entering northern Central Africa from Sudan and Chad pose a great threat to the forest animal and plant resources in northern Central Africa. Despite the northern development plan, due to the slow protection, the black rhinoceros has basically disappeared, other mammals are facing serious threats, and the number of elephants has also decreased sharply. The national protected area system covers an area of 676. 20,000 hm2 accounts for 1 1% of the total land area. Mainly exporting timber, diamonds, coffee, cotton and tobacco, and importing light industry, textiles, grains, petroleum, food and petroleum products.
