The invention relates to an area measurement technology of the broad leaved plant vane, particularly to a method using the digital camera to combine the squared paper, the Photograph software measurement and the computation of the broad leaved plant vane. The method includes the steps of collecting the plant vane, soaking with water, extracting the vane when in the measurement, blotting by filter paper, laying on the transparent plastic plate arranged in the row. The plastic plate is put on the fixed standard squared paper, shot by the digital camera, computing the pixel of the vane by the Photoshop software, dividing the pixel value with the area of 1 cm2 of the standard squared paper. A plurality of samples are measured to obtain the mean, namely the vane area of the plant. The method is simple, correct, low in cost, strong in the field maneuverability, especially used for measuring the dehydration broad leaved plant vane, which is a practical method for the scientific research.
