Rain proverbs in the Millennium solar terms

"Not afraid of dew, but afraid of dew" is an agricultural proverb, which is used to describe the situation of crops in dew weather. The Millennium is one of the 24 solar terms, which starts on September 8 or 9 every year when the sun reaches longitude 165. The white dew season, usually early autumn, turns cold and the morning dew is heavier.

This agricultural proverb means that if crops encounter rain (so-called "rain") in dew weather, it may have adverse effects on crops. This is because the weather is cooler in the Millennium season, and crops are vulnerable to cold damage at this time. If it rains, the rain will further aggravate the damage of crops and lead to a decline in output.

Therefore, farmers hope that the weather in the Millennium will remain sunny and there will be no rain, so as not to adversely affect crops. This also reflects farmers' concern about weather changes and awareness of crop protection. However, it should be noted that this is only a traditional agricultural proverb, which does not represent the scientific accuracy. The actual impact needs to be judged according to the specific situation and crop characteristics.

These proverbs are usually concise and vivid, conveying certain agricultural knowledge and experience in easy-to-understand language. Agricultural proverbs can involve all aspects of agricultural production, including weather, agricultural operations, crop growth and so on.

In addition to proverbs describing weather and crop growth, there are also some agricultural proverbs about expressing life principles and values. These proverbs convey some wisdom and philosophy through the scenes of farming life and the growth process of crops, such as the importance of labor, the principle of conforming to nature, the virtue of diligence and housekeeping, etc.

Agricultural proverbs are widely circulated in rural areas. They are not only the guiding principles of farmers, but also a part of traditional culture.
