§The details of every category were showed in supplementary tables. The land areas of crop, orchard, cattle breeding and cash forest are 6.7ha, 0.3ha, 1.3ha and 0.4ha, respectively.
*The labor price was different in different years as showed in Supplementary Table S5.
**We sold the grains and apple as ordinary food during 2007–2009 because the conversion period to organic is generally three years. The price of ordinary food is showed in Supplementary Table S2 and Supplementary Table S3, respectively for grain and apple.
