Abstract: A case study was conducted in Tacheng region.By using biomass method,classifying species and forest ages,the carbon-sink benefits were analyzed after the implementation of the first round of subsidies of the conversion of cropland to ecological forest project(the CCFP).The carbon-sink benefit of the CCFP was estimated in Xinjiang.The results show that the carbon-sink capacity was huge of the CCFP in Xinjiang,Carbon storage was 4.76 million tons and the afforestation carbon-sink benefit was 5.71 billion Yuan by the Swedish carbon tax method.

Key words: the conversion of cropland to forest, biomass, carbon-sink benefit, Xinjiang
