Abstract: To explore the change regularity of physical properties of flue-cured tobacco of different years from Ankang tobacco growing area, physical properties of different parts of flue-cured tobacco from 2011 to 2016 were analyzed. Results showed that there were differences in physical properties by years, stem ratio of lower leaves rose in 2014-2015 and declined in 2016. Stem ratio of middle leaves was high except in 2013 and 2016. Stem ratio of upper leaves declined from 2011 to 2013, and then rose year by year till 2015, and declined again in 2016. There were no significant changes in single leaf weight of lower leaves from 2011 to 2016, but single leaf weight of middle leaves significantly increased in 2016. Single leaf weight of upper leaves in 2011 and 2016 was higher than those in other years. Unit leaf area weight of lower leaves rose year by year, unit leaf area weight of middle leaves rose year by year from 2011 to 2013, and then declined slowly till 2015, and rose again in 2016. Unit leaf area weight of upper leaves rose from 2011 to 2012, and then declined year by year till 2015, and rose again in 2016. There were no significant changes in leaf width-length ratio of lower leaves from 2011 to 2016. Leaf width-length ratio of middle leaves declined year by year from 2011 to 2014, and then increased quickly till 2016. Leaf width-length ratio of upper leaves declined year by year from 2011 to 2014, and then increased in 2015, and declined again in 2016. There were no significant changes of leaf tensile strength of lower and middle leaves from 2011 to 2012, but declined in 2013 and then kept the same level till 2015, and rose sharply in 2016. There were no significant changes of leaf tensile strength of upper leaves from 2011 to 2012, but declined in 2013, and increased year by year till 2015, and then kept the same level till 2016.
