From an agricultural perspective, it is good to have rain at Grain Full.During the Grain Full solar term, there will generally be a lot of rainfall and heavy rainfall in southern my country. Due to the active warm and humid air flow in the south, it meets the cold air moving from the north in southern China. At this time, there will often be continuous and large-scale heavy rainfall in southern China, causing heavy rain or torrential rain, just as the folk saying goes, "Grain Full, the rivers are gradually full." The rivers and lakes in the Jiangnan region are often full. If there is less rain during this period, it may be that the subtropical high pressure in the Pacific is weaker and located further south, which means it is the plum rain season. After Grain Full, precipitation increases further, the rainfall is sufficient and timely, cereal crops can thrive, and plants in nature are relatively plump and lush. Xiaoman refers to the abundance or scarcity of rain, indicating that the fields should be filled with water during Xiaoman, otherwise the field ridges may dry up and crack, and rice may even become impossible to plant, affecting the harvest of crops. What’s the significance of the rain during Grain Full?There is a folk saying that it is taboo not to have rain during Grain in Ear. It is believed that if it does not rain during Grain in Ear, the rice fields will not be filled with water, which may cause the field ridges to dry up and crack, and even rice will not be planted during Grain in Ear. There is also a proverb that "If it does not rain during Grain in Ear, there is no need to plant rice during Grain in Ear".In the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River and other areas, there is a saying that "If the Grain Full season is not full, the wheat harvest will be in danger." The "one danger" here refers to the fact that the wheat has just entered the milky stage and is very vulnerable to dry and hot winds, which can lead to insufficient grain filling, shriveled grains and reduced yields. In the Jiangnan region, people believe that if there is no rain during Grain Full, there will be a year of drought and little rain. For example, in Anhui, Jiangxi and Hubei provinces, there is a saying that "if Grain Full is not fully harvested, there will be no water to wash dishes"; in Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou and other regions, there is an agricultural proverb that "if Grain Full is not fully harvested, the field ridges will dry up"; in Sichuan Province, there is also a saying that "if Grain Full is not fully harvested, the plows and harrows must be hung high". From a foreign perspective, Grain Full is also an important period for silkworm breeding. Around Grain Full, silkworms will start to spin cocoons and silkworm farmers will be busy reeling silk. In ancient times, in order to shake the silk wheel to reel silk, it was necessary to pedal the water wheel to turn the water. If there was no rain during the Grain Full period, the water level of the rivers would drop and it would be difficult to pedal the water wheel, which would also affect the silkworm farmers.
