Why is it not good to thunder after beginning of autumn?

The sentence "thunder in autumn, half the harvest in winter" means that if you especially like thunder in autumn, your harvest this winter will be halved.

So, if you like thunder in autumn, it actually means that the climate in autumn is already very dry, which means autumn drought in agricultural production. Generally speaking, after the autumn harvest, we should be busy planting crops for the next season. However, if the climate is very dry at this time, winter crops often can't germinate and take root after sowing under drought conditions, so crops will encounter severe drought just after they get up, which will naturally have a great impact on the yield of subsequent crops.

Therefore, our ancestors said, "It thunders in autumn and harvests in winter", but it rained in beginning of autumn that day, which means the weather will be fine in the future.

There is an agricultural proverb that says, "thunder strikes autumn, and winter is half the harvest", and "if autumn begins to be sunny, farmers will not work hard". Before and after beginning of autumn, the temperature in most parts of China was still on the high side, various crops were growing vigorously, mid-season rice blossomed and bore fruit, single-night round stalks, soybean pods, corn silking, cotton bolling, and sweet potato tubers expanded rapidly, all of which urgently needed water. The drought in this period will cause irreparable damage to the final harvest of crops. Therefore, there are sayings that "the rice turns into rice after three rains in beginning of autumn" and "the autumn rain is falling, and gold is everywhere".

After autumn, the temperature is still high in most parts of China around beginning of autumn, and all kinds of crops grow vigorously. Mid-season rice blooms and bears fruit, stalks round overnight, soybean pods, corn ears, cotton bolls and sweet potato tubers expand rapidly, so the demand for water is very urgent. The drought in this period will cause irreparable damage to the final harvest of crops.

Therefore, there are sayings that "the rice turns into rice after three rains in beginning of autumn" and "the autumn rain is falling, and gold is everywhere". Double-night growth is in a high-temperature to low-temperature environment, so we must seize the favorable opportunity of high temperature, topdressing and ploughing to strengthen management.
