The Origin and Significance of China Farmers' Harvest Festival What is the origin and significance of China Farmers' Harvest Festival?

1, the origin of China Farmers Harvest Festival: As we all know, the autumnal equinox is the 16th solar term among the 24 solar terms in the China lunar calendar, which is exactly half of the 90 days from beginning of autumn to the first frost. Autumn equinox, sunny weather, sweet-scented osmanthus, crab fat chrysanthemum yellow, is the harvest scene of Man Cang, a valley with fragrant melons and fruits. Traditionally, the autumnal equinox is not only the end of autumn harvest and winter storage, but also the beginning of summer sowing and spring ploughing. As an agricultural proverb in northern China says, the autumnal equinox is the best time to plant wheat. Therefore, establishing the annual autumnal equinox as the harvest festival for farmers in China is not only a tribute and inheritance to the traditional 24 solar terms, but also the crystallization of ancient wisdom, and also reflects the understanding of contemporary China people on the concept of natural replacement, adaptation to natural laws and adaptation to sustainable ecological development.
