'''Yanchi County''' ({{zh|s=盐池县|t=鹽池縣|p=Yánchí Xiàn|w=Yan2-ch'ih2 Hsien4}}, [[Xiao'erjing]]: يًاچِ ثِيًا) is a [[County (People's Republic of China)|county]] under the administration of [[Wuzhong, Ningxia|Wuzhong]] city in [[Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region]] of China, bordering the provinces of [[Shaanxi]] to the east and [[Gansu]] to the south, as well as [[Inner Mongolia]] to the north. Covering a total area of {{convert|6787|km2|abbr=on}}, it has a population of about 150,000 people.

==Characteristics==

Yanchi County is one of China's most impoverished counties. Economic development has been slow, because much of the land in the county is wasteland with [[alkali soils|alkali soil]], making farming difficult. Also, to cancel agricultural taxes on these lands, the county government has in recent years developed the cultivation of honey and high-tech herbs. The town of Huamachi serves as the location for the county government offices. The county's postal code is 751500.
