The invention relates to a rice and tobacco alternate planting method, and belongs to the technical field of planting. The method comprises the steps of 1, rice planting, wherein seed selection, seedling raising, seedling transplanting and transplanted field management are performed, and harvesting is performed after rice is mature; 2, rice field management, wherein after rice is harvested, all harvested straw is subjected to mulching treatment; 3, tobacco planting, wherein after fertilization, tobacco is transplanted and planted; 4, tobacco management, wherein weeding, deinsectization, irrigation and fertilization are performed; 5, tobacco harvesting, wherein tobacco is harvested after being mature. According to the method, chemical fertilizer consumption in the tobacco planting process is greatly lowered, the soil properties are improved, the tobacco leaf yield is increased, the content of aroma substances in tobacco leaves is greatly increased, and the tobacco leaf quality is improved. Interplanting is performed on tobacco and soybeans or wheat, planting space and resources are sufficiently utilized to the maximum extent, element loss is avoided, it is ensured that elements arerecycled, circulation and balance of an ecological system are ensured, and environmental protection is facilitated.
