Abstract
Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer is an important pharmaceutical plant in North Eastern Asia. Five mountain forests, namely: Hongcheon, Sangju, Jinan, Poonggi and Andong were selected to compare net photosynthesis of P. ginseng in Korea. The net photosynthesis of 5 years old ginseng showed the highest values in all the forest areas. Obviously, net photosynthetic rates of forest ginseng grown in every five mountain forests decrease when the forest ginseng becomes old.
