What are the arrangements for agricultural activities during the Beginning of Winter in 2017?
The 24 solar terms are closely related to farming. The ancients invented the 24 solar terms in order to better carry out farming. So how to arrange farming at the Beginning of Winter? Let’s learn more about it. September is in late autumn, and every day in September is full of harvest and hope. The Fortune Teller website can help you answer the lunar calendar and the fortunes and misfortunes for every day in September of the lunar calendar.What are the arrangements for agricultural activities during the Beginning of Winter in 2017?Autumn harvest and winter planting <br /> This is the best time for autumn harvest and winter planting. All regions should make full use of the fine weather to harvest, dry and air the late rice to ensure the quality of storage. Winter wheat sowing should be carried out as soon as possible. Pay attention to weather forecasts and make good use of the weather. It is better to sow early when it rains than to sow slightly later when it is sunny. This is to ensure the sowing quality and strive to ensure that the wheat survives the winter with tillers to prevent jointing within the year. The winter sowing area should be expanded as much as possible to reduce idle fields. All localities should do a good job in winter planting, winter water conservancy repairs, and winter fertilizer accumulation.Animal Husbandry and Farming <br /> In autumn, pig epidemic prevention work focuses on vaccination; cattle are allowed to graze more and eat more grass; deworming work is carried out before winter comes. When grazing, try to let the goats eat enough grass to grow fat; during the autumn breeding work of Angora rabbits, those that have not been bred should be bred in time; farmers who are used to raising geese quickly introduce young geese for breeding, and they can be raised to 70 days old in time for the Spring Festival and can be sold at a good price. Vegetable farming <br /> Greenhouse construction should be completed in time after the beginning of winter. At the same time, do a good job in greenhouse vegetable management. When the temperature is high during the day, you can remove the film at the leeward side for ventilation, and pay attention to sealing the greenhouse at night. In North China and the Huanghuai region, when the average daily temperature drops to around 4°C and the field soil freezes at night but thaws during the day, it is important to seize the opportunity to irrigate wheat, vegetables and orchards with winter water in order to replenish insufficient soil moisture, improve the field microclimate environment, prevent "drought adding to the cold", and reduce and avoid the occurrence of frost damage. In the Jiangnan and South China regions, timely digging "yield ditches" in the fields and clearing and draining ditches are important measures to prevent winter waterlogging and freezing damage. Repairing farm tools <br /> After winter, farm work is gradually completed and farmers should check and repair all farm tools during their free time. If any are found to be damaged or unusable, they should be repaired or replaced immediately to avoid missing the farming season next spring. According to the Book of Rites: Monthly Ordinances, in the last month of winter, "the farmers are ordered to put aside their farming work, prepare farmland, and prepare farming tools." That is exactly what I meant. Making fertilizer <br /> Except for those growing in swamps, most plants rely on their roots to absorb nutrients from the soil to sustain life. In the mountains where there is no one all year round, the trees are particularly lush and vigorous. It is precisely because of the dead branches and leaves grown by the grass that accumulate over time and form fertilizer. After winter, the grass and trees wither. In areas near mountains and forests or at home with gardens, dead branches and leaves are everywhere. This is the best time for farmers to make compost. |
