The temperature during Grain in Ear rises significantly and the rainfall is relatively abundant. During this period, agricultural production in most parts of China is in the busy season of "summer harvest, summer planting, and summer management". The term Grain in Ear was first mentioned in the Book of Zhou, which states, "Where marsh grass grows, Grain in Ear can be planted."

The first is "the birth of mantises", the second is "the beginning of the chirping of birds" and the third is "the sound of antidote becomes silent". In the Collection of Explanations of the 72 Solar Terms in the Lunar Calendar, Ye Zeng mentioned: "The May Festival is when the grains with awns can be planted." It means that the seeds of awned crops such as barley and wheat are ripe and it is urgent to harvest them. It is also the busiest season for sowing summer crops such as late rice, millet and sorghum, so it is also called "Mangzhong". 1.
