[Objective] To provide technical support for the Dajiuhu wetland protection and management, the service value of the Dajiuhu wetland ecosystem in Shennongjia forest region was evaluated.[Methods] The principle methods of the resource economics and ecological economics were applied to assess the value of eight service functions of the Dajiuhu wetland ecosystem by collecting the present available data.[Results] The total estimated value of the ecosystem services from the Dajiuhu wetland was 0.653 billion RMB, accounted for 30% of the gross domestic product (GDP) in the Shennongjia forest region in 2015. The value of floods storage, soil conservation, and entertainment as the leading services value, accounted for about 88.94% of the total value. The cultural service value occupied only 0.47% but it should not be ignored.[Conclusion] The service value of the Dajiuhu wetland ecosystem is very important to support the wetland protection in this region, but to a certain degree, there existed inseparable relationship with the decrease and function degradation of wetlands and the wetland ecosystem services function.
