Introduction of Agricultural Festival

Farming Day celebrations are held in accordance with the custom of Brahmanism. In the sound of horn music, the main ploughman held a golden wooden plow pulled by two white bulls six times. Two girls carrying gold and silver burdens followed the wooden plow. From time to time, the main ploughman grabs handfuls of grain from the gold and silver shoulders and scatters them in the fields. After the ploughing ceremony, thousands of people poured into the fields around the square, dug up seeds from the soil, put the soil into plastic bags and took it home. They believe that these seeds and the "holy land" of Wangjiatian will bring a bumper harvest year and good luck.
