What is farming civilization?

Agricultural culture, in the first two periods of the development of Chinese agricultural culture, namely, the period of primitive agricultural culture and traditional agricultural culture, can be collectively referred to as the period of agricultural culture, or the period of ancient agricultural culture. In the process of the emergence and development of Chinese culture, agricultural culture is the foundation, because it is aimed at satisfying people's most basic survival needs (clothing, food, housing and transportation), which determines the way of existence of the Han Chinese nation and shapes the Han Chinese culture itself. China is one of the birthplaces of the world's agricultural culture. The farming culture of the Central Plains, moreover, is the foundation of Chinese agricultural culture, an important birthplace. Before the Song Dynasty, farming in the Central Plains was the axis of Chinese agricultural culture. The origin of agriculture in the developed, and with with the invention of agricultural technology, creation, agricultural system and agricultural philosophy is closely related.

Agricultural culture, refers to the sum of material and spiritual culture related to agriculture created by the practical activities of agricultural production. It can be divided into agricultural science and technology, agricultural ideas, agricultural systems and decrees, agricultural festivals and customs, food culture, etc. Its development can be divided into primitive agricultural culture, agricultural culture, agricultural culture, agricultural culture, agricultural culture, and agricultural culture. Its development can be divided into three stages: primitive agricultural culture, traditional agricultural culture and modern agricultural culture. Agricultural civilization is the first civilization form in human history. It refers to a cultural collection of state system, ritual and customary system, culture and education, etc. formed by farmers in long-term agricultural production and adapted to the needs of agricultural production and life. China's farming civilization is a collection of Confucianism, and all kinds of religious culture as a whole, formed its own unique cultural content and characteristics, but the main body includes the concept of state management, the concept of interpersonal communication, as well as language, drama, folk songs, customs and all kinds of rituals, etc., is the world's most widely existent cultural integration.

We all learn the characteristics of the farming era from materials and books, and the ideal family model in traditional Chinese culture is "cultivation and reading", that is, both "cultivation" to maintain the family life and "reading" to improve the family's culture, and "reading" to improve the family's culture. That is to say, there should be both "cultivation" to maintain the family's livelihood and "reading" to improve the family's cultural level. An important manifestation of the farming civilization is that men plough and women weave, on a small scale, with a simple division of labour, self-sufficient and not used for commodity exchange. This cultivated farming civilization promotes the harmony of nature, which fits the principle of the highest cultivation of Chinese culture for the life of Joyful Heaven and Knowing Life, Joyful Heaven is to know the laws and regulations of the universe, and Knowing Life is to know the value and true meaning of life. The reverence for a career in farming and studying and the promotion of cooperation and tolerance rather than the predatory use of natural resources are in line with today's concept of harmonious development. The farming civilization represented by fishing, woodcutting, plowing and reading is the practical summary of the production and life of the Han people for thousands of years, and it is a cultural form in which the essence of the children of Huaxia in different forms is condensed and handed down to the present day. It should be timely, appropriate, code, the concept of harmony y rooted in people's hearts, and at the same time, the ideological concepts, farming civilization contains ideas and cultural character are very consistent with the value of the concept, such as in the cultivation of labor and nurturing: unity and unity, independence, peace-loving, self-improvement, collective supremacy, respect for the elderly and love for the young, hard work, courage, hard work, hard struggle, diligence and thrift, neighbors to help each other and so on. All of these values are still honored today, so the farming culture is very valuable.

There are also customs and cultures formed during long-term agricultural production, derived and developed around agricultural services and farmers' self-indulgence, with modern-day recognizable dances, poems, novels, and so on.
