Peasant Calendar is a reference book for life in China traditional society. It was left over by the ancient ancestors of China in their daily life. After thousands of years of writing and various contents, the peasant calendar we see today has been completed. In Taiwan Province Province, it is mainly provided by the distribution of township farmers' associations. The cover is mostly a three-star portrait of Fu Lushou with a yellow background, and the back is a diagram of food poisoning. It is called Gregorian calendar in Chinese mainland.

In ancient agricultural economy, farmers were used to sowing in spring and harvesting in autumn. Originally the lunar calendar should better reflect the agricultural cycle, but many ancient calendars were based on the moon. One guess is that the moon in the dark is particularly easy to observe, and the moon's profit and loss are clear at a glance. Only when astronomical technology is mature can they observe the role of the sun in the calendar.

The farm calendar is very important to farmers, and it is available in every family in the agricultural society. Most of the content is related to farming. In addition to the solar calendar, lunar calendar and solar terms are arranged in the order of year, month and month, there are separate columns to record auspicious occasions, predictions, festivals and ceremonies every day. Therefore, it can not only be regarded as an annual calendar and a monthly calendar, but also be used for weddings, funerals and sacrifices.
