What are the climate changes and farming activities in the canopy season?

The awn seeds are called awn seeds when the sun reaches 75 degrees on June 6 or 7 every year. "Mang" refers to the fine hairs at the tip of the grain. There is a saying in Emperor Li Zhoudi's Road flyover: "Sow grass and grow it." The so-called "awn seed" here refers to rice and wheat. It can be seen that the narrow sense of "awn seed" does not generally refer to the sowing of awn crops, but only refers to rice.

In this solar term, North China, Central China and Southwest China began to harvest wheat fields, and at the same time entered the summer sowing stage of crops such as late rice, so the awn seed was also called "busy planting". There are proverbs among the people, such as "Spring competes for the sun, and summer competes for the season", "Xiaotian pursues the sky, while the awn seeds pursue the season", and "When the wheat is ripe, Longkou will seize the grain".

At this time, the average daily temperature in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is between 23 degrees and 25 degrees, and the solar term rainfall is between 50 mm and 90 mm, entering the Huangmei season.

There is an agricultural proverb in northern China, which is called "If you cross the awn, you will not grow strong", mainly referring to Datian, and it has profound historical and practical experience.
