Coffee industry is a new industry cultivated in the industrial structure adjustment in Yunxian County. Through four years' efforts, the coffee planting area of the county has reached 85650 mu, the production area is 5227 mu, and the output in 2013 is 502.7 tons. The key development areas are the happiness town of the Nanting River Basin and the river valley of the villages and towns along the Lancang River. Happiness Town has a planting area of 27200 mu, and what is more gratifying is that the production conditions are poor, and the villages and towns such as chestnut trees and Houqing, which are difficult to cultivate, also have a certain scale.

Lishu Township is the most remote mountain township in Yunxian County, which is located in the Lancang River Grand Canyon. From the low hot valley about 900m above sea level to the top of the birch and bamboo forest at an altitude of 2609 m, it is difficult to find a piece of natural flat land that can exceed 20 mu. The production and living conditions of its residents are more difficult. The development advantages found by the township party committee and government in the cultivation of the industry of enriching the people are as follows: the Lancang River valley is rich in land resources, superior light and heat conditions, and no matter how steep the slopes are, they also have land fertility beyond reach at high elevations. In the last century, the collectivization era also experimentally promoted the cultivation of tropical cash crop pepper. This kind of land resources, if only one season of grain is planted in the same season of rain and heat every year, it is a waste of resources. After seeing the advantages, the two levels of villages mobilize the villagers to adjust measures to local conditions and work hard to develop the coffee industry in the Lancang River valley, while the focus of the cold mountain area is the walnut and flue-cured tobacco industry. At present, the coffee planting area of the whole township is 18270.89 mu, second only to the happiness area of the key planning areas of the city and county.
