Based on statistical data, the value of the Converting Farmland into Forest and Grassland Project of Ansai County in 12 years was quantitatively calculated, also its externalities weight analysis was calculated. The results showed that the Converting Farmland into Forest and Grassland Project of Ansai County has achieved the primary target of improving the ecological environment. This project has provided tremendous value for the local area’s ecological and economic development. Total value was 1.037×1010 Yuan. The externality value was 5.41×109 Yuan, accounting for 52.62% of the total value. The service value of the functions of forests was in the order of: carbon fixation and oxygen release > water conservation > soil conservation > species conservation > environmental purification > action of forest against natural calamities. The most important role was carbon fixation and oxygen release, it played the main role in the nationwide, the external value was more than half of the total value, indicating that loess hilly region contributed to the tremendous power of ecological restoration and soil conservation in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River region. Calculated by the the external value, the estimated returning farmland compensation ceiling of Ansai County was 12 325.5 Yuan per hectare.
