It is said that a little rain is good. What are the specific benefits?

Tomorrow is Xiaoman solar term in the twenty-four solar terms, and it is the eighth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms. The arrival of the second solar term in summer means that there will be more and more rain, and there will often be large-scale rainfall. It is raining harder and harder after the solar term, but farmers don't want it to rain when it is full. There is a saying in the countryside that "small foolproof, every family has food". What does this proverb mean? Isn't it good to rain heavily? There is no drought in rainy days. "People have enough to eat" means that if it doesn't rain before and after Xiaoman solar term, the weather may be a little dry, but it is good for farmers. Because it means that every family can eat enough this year.

For our farmers in the North China Plain, this is a critical period for wheat growth. Because wheat began to enter the final stage of growth-enema period. Wheat filling stage is the most important period for wheat quality accumulation. At this time, the water demand of wheat may increase, but farmers don't expect rain. Because rain can meet the water needed for wheat growth. But because the temperature drops or it is windy, it will be accompanied by rain. Wheat needs a lot of heat when it enters the filling stage. In other words, the hotter the weather, the better the wheat filling and the more sufficient the dry matter accumulation. At this time, the colder the weather is, it is not conducive to wheat filling and wheat harvest is also affected. When it rains, if accompanied by strong wind, the ears of wheat will become heavier and heavier after grouting, and it is easy to lose ears in stormy days. At this stage, the autumn of wheat will be seriously affected by the wheat harvest, and even no grain will be harvested. Therefore, if it doesn't rain, it will help the growth of wheat.

Half a month after the solar term, the wheat will be harvested. There is also a saying in rural areas that "wheat 18 days, green density flour". In other words, from childhood to solar terms to 18, seemingly green wheat turned into white flour.

The solar term xiaoman sounds strange to some young people, while others think it is a name. The so-called Xiaoman means that after entering this solar term, the cereal crops harvested in summer begin to be full, but there is no "Taiwan Province". Means full maturity. There are three kinds of waiting for the full solar terms, waiting for the bitter vegetable show, the second is the withered grass, and the third is the wheat autumn. "After the Xiaoman solar term, bitter vegetables began to grow wildly, with lush foliage." After that, white branches, slender and soft grass slowly withered and died in the strong sunlight. (I hope so, william shakespeare's Hamlet) By Soman's last time, the wheat began to ripen.
