Abstract Water conservation and infiltration between evergreen broad-leave tree Schima superba and needle-leaved tree Cunninghamia lanceolata plantation were studied in the area located in upper reaches of the Minjiang river, Jian'ou city through plot sample data. The results showed that the ground water-holding capacities of Schima superba and Cunninghamia lanceolata plantation was 16.3 t/hm2 and 21.4 t/hm respectively. But the water-holding capacity in 1 rn deep soil layer of Schima superba plantation was much higher than that of the Cunninghamia lanceolata plantation (the former was 5 039.5 t/hm2 and the latter was 4716.2 t/hm2 respectively) . And the forest soil infiltration haracters in Schima superba plantation is better than that of the Cunninghamia lanceolata plantation.
