In order to further study the response characteristics of wild notopterygium forbesii to thesoil environment，and clarify the difference of soil environments in differentgrowth years，the soil enzyme activity and organic carbon content of the rhizosphere soil were monitored for wild notopterygium forbesii for three treatments with different continuous growth years(2，3 and 5 years). With the increaseof growthyears，the influence on soil porosity wasmainly in the depth of 0-40cm， the average soil porosity of 5-year old plots was decreased to 88.56% of thecontrol，and the influence on the soil porosity at 50-100 cm soil layer was small. The soil moisture content in the 0 -50 cm soil layer changedsignificantly，that in the root circumference was increased year by year inthe first 3 years，reaching 105.59% of thecontrol，and the soil moisture content in the soil below 60 cm soil layer had the same change law and the difference was not significant. Soil organic carbon content wasdecreased gradually，from the control to the five-year-old plots，the total soil organiccarbon(TOC)contentwas reduced to41.75% of theoriginal，and dissolved organiccarbon(DOC)content was decreasedto51.78%，particulateorganiccarbon(POC)content wasdecreased to18.30%，active organiccarbon(LFOC)content wasdecreased tO₂4.42%， easily oxidizedorganiccarbon(ROC)content was decreased tO₂1.76%，and microbial biomasscarbon(MBC)content was decreased to 47.31% of the original. There was no significant difference in DOC content between 3-year and 5-year oldsoils，and no significant difference in LFOC and ROC contents between 2-year and 3-year old soils. The activities ofurease， polyphenol oxidase and catalase in soil were first decreased and thenincreased，and the activities of dehydrogenase and sucrase in soil had no obvious changetrend，and the activity of phosphoric acid in soil was increased significantly. With the ageof plants，the Leaf apparent quantumefficiency(AQP)was significantly wasdecreased，and the light compensationpoint(LCP)，light saturationpoint(LSP)and darkrespirationrate(Rd)were all significantly increased. The primary light energy conversionefficiency(Fv/Fm)，photochemical quenchingcoefficient(qP)and photosynthetic electrontransferefficiency(φPSII)of leaves were all decreased tovarying degrees，and the non-photochemicalquenching(NPQ) coefficient was increased significantly. These results suggest that soil physical and chemical activity and some soil enzyme and organic carbon content weredecreased with the increase of growthyears，the influence of soil microenvironment on root biological activity wasincreased，and the change of root living environment affected the absorption of soil water and nutrientsby plants，and the plant leaf assimilation efficiency wasreduced，further affected the quality and quality formation of live medicinal materials of notopterygium root.
