What does the slight cold solar term mean?

Began to enter the coldest day of the year.

Slight cold is one of the 24 solar terms in China and the fifth solar term in winter. When it's a little cold every year, the weather will get cold, but it doesn't mean it's extremely cold, which mainly marks the beginning of winter. It can be said that slight cold is the coldest day of the year.

During the slight cold season, most parts of China have entered a severe cold period, with frozen soil and rivers frozen. In addition, the cold air in the north keeps going south and the weather is cold. People call it "counting nine cold days" Although the south of China is not as cold as the north, the temperature drops obviously. The coldest time in the south is slight cold and severe cold, between rain and fright.

Xiao Han's farming activities

Due to the large geographical span between north and south in China, different regions will have different production and cultivation for the same slight cold solar terms. In the north, in most areas, there is not much farm work in the fields, and all of them have winter holidays. The main task is to do a good job of keeping warm in vegetable pits and sheds, and to make fertilizer and accumulate fertilizer at home.

Winter fertilizer should be applied to wheat, rape and other crops in southern China, while in Hainan and most parts of southern China, it is mainly to do a good job in cold and antifreeze, store fertilizer and build water conservancy projects. Slight cold and severe cold are the periods with the least rainfall in a year. ?
