What is the impact of rainy solar terms on agriculture, rural areas and farmers?

Rain is the second of the twenty-four solar terms, which is located around the fifteenth day of the first month of each year. Generally, it starts on February 18 or 19 and ends on March 4 or 5. As the ice and snow melt, there will be more rain in spring.

In the solar terms of rain, the climate song of the twenty-four solar terms says that "rain and spring rain are as expensive as oil, use roofs to prevent soil moisture from flowing, accumulate more fertilizer and harvest more grain, select varieties and seize the poor harvest". Entering the rain solar term is beneficial to the greening or growth of overwintering crops. Therefore, we must attach great importance to the field management of overwintering crops. As farmers who mainly work in agriculture, they are concerned about how to seize the key season of "one year's plan lies in spring", stop spring ploughing, spring planting and spring management, and fulfill the wish of "planting a drop in spring and harvesting ten thousand kinds in autumn".

In all kinds of breeding, farmers should strengthen management, do a good job in antifreeze and heat preservation of vegetables and fruits in greenhouses, do a good job in ventilation, and sow radishes after rain and solar terms. They should choose varieties with short growth period, strong cold tolerance and strict vernalization requirements to stop sowing. In the rainy season, when there is no autumn tillage, especially those hard stubble fields, we should take advantage of the opportunity of thawing to pull the stubble fields or press them with rollers, which can not only ensure the sowing quality, but also resist drought. It is necessary to complete the pruning and heavy fertilizer application of citrus, spray chemicals to eliminate overwintering pests, and continue to do a good job in repairing and combing ditches.

Do a good job in keeping the pens warm, strengthen disinfection and avoid the outbreak of epidemic diseases. The vast number of specialized animal husbandry households should summarize the consumption and operation of the previous year, and then make a good development plan for the whole year. After the Qingming Festival, the temperature will rise in spring, and they will start to fully develop the consumption of livestock and poultry industry. A year's plan lies in spring, and Du Fu's Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night is a portrayal of rain and solar terms. With the arrival of the rain solar term, the days of spring breeze, melting ice and snow, mild sunshine and rustling drizzle are coming to us.

"Rain" refers to the phenomenon that the spring breeze gradually blows all over the earth, the ice and snow melt and flourish everywhere. People's perception of the weather and the adjustment of consumption life are both ways to realize the harmonious unity between man and nature and the pursuit of "harmony between man and nature". In short, the solar terms of rain play a vital role in the consumption life of agriculture, rural areas and farmers.
