Stands water conservation function mainly dependend on forest withers and soil water holding capacity. We have compared with difference of withers quantity, withers conversation capacity and soil holding capacity of five kinds stands in Jianghuai hilly region. Results from the research showed: withers of the Quercus acutissima forest have much stronger water holding capacity, its biggest water capacity is 123.7 t/hm2; and 33.5 t/hm2 of pure tea garden,which is the weakest. Soil water holding capacity of mixed stand of Pinusm assoniana and Liquidambar formosana is the strongest, but the Quercus acutissima stands and Pinusm assoniana stands have much weaker soil water holding capacity. From stands total water-holding capacity, we know that forest withers water-holding capacity only account for the total water-holding capacity much lower, the scope is between 2.0%~5.1%, but the soil water-holding capacity occupies above total water-holding capacity 90%, therefore the stands water-holding capacity is decided by the soil water-holding capacity.
