With the departure of the Spring Festival holiday, everyone has also started working and studying in the new year. However, there are still many people in the countryside who have not left their hometowns yet, and most of them will not go out to work after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. For the elderly, the first to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month are all year round, and every day has different requirements. If you live every day well, the New Year will be more prosperous.
The old man said that the eleventh day of the first lunar month is the birthday of crops. On this day, we have to eat grains and grains, that is, millet, sorghum, wheat, beans and hemp. This birthday is to commemorate the contribution of crops to mankind. We hope to have good weather and good harvests in the new year, so as not to reduce grain production and be hungry.
celebrating the crops' birthday, and you will also have a sense of intimacy and peace of mind. As the saying goes, "Food is the most important thing for people". Everyone relies on grains and grains to replenish energy, but the growth of crops is greatly affected by the year. The better the year, the higher the output. On the contrary, on the contrary, the poor year, the grain output is relatively low. Once extreme weather occurs, the grain may be completely harvested.
Farmers all look forward to having a good harvest so that they can earn money through hard work and not waste their efforts after a year of busy work. However, at each stage, crops have to stand different tests.
In early spring, late spring cold is a problem that farmers need to care about. When spring is warm and flowers are blooming, a cold wave will come, and crop growth will be affected. Prevention needs to be taken in advance. However, the cold wave comes quickly and often comes without the farmers knowing it. Once the crop production breaks out, it may be frustrated.
When summer comes, you should also pay attention to the impact of diseases and pests and diseases. The cost of prevention and control will increase. The southern region will also face heavy rainstorms, but the north is drought and rainless. A hail may come and a large area of crops will fall. In September, crops will be harvested one after another, but at this time, we need to pay attention to the arrival of typhoons. When a typhoon comes, all the expectations for half a year will be gone. At that time, a piece of grain will fall down and the moisture in the grain will increase, and the price will not be sold at a good price.
Crops are undergoing the test of all seasons, and in the face of natural weather, they can only choose to endure and continue to grow tenaciously. In order to have a good weather in the new year, the birthday of the crops on the 11th day of the first lunar month is expected to "cover three layers of quilts in winter, and sleep with steamed buns pillows next year."
So what is the harvest in 2021? In fact, we can see from the old folk sayings. Let’s take a look at the following common sayings.
1, "Two dragons govern the water, eleven ox plow the fields, and six people divide the cake"
The Chinese calendar is divided into two types: Yin and Yang calendar. The solar calendar is based on the earth's orbital cycle around the sun, with 365 or 366 days. The lunar calendar is based on the "central and moon" and is divided into 354 or 355 days a year and divided into twenty-four solar terms.
There is a question among the people that "a few dragons control the water, and a few oxes plow the fields". As for how to distinguish it, it is actually relatively simple. The dragon corresponds to the Chen day, and the ox corresponds to the ugly day. The second day of the Lunar New Year in 2021 is Chen day, which is "two dragons govern the water"; the eleventh day of the first lunar month in 2021 is "ugly day", which means 11 oxen plowing the fields; the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is the first "Bing day" of the new year, so there is a saying that "six people share cakes".
People believe that one dragon controls water and rain more, while “2 dragon controls water” has a lot of rain, and “5 dragon controls water” is just right, so there will be no floods, floods and droughts. From this point of view, the second dragon controls water means that the rain may be more likely to be more rainy in the future.
maybe people may think that "11 cows plow the fields" means that grain production and income are relatively good. In fact, this is not how it is understood. Under normal circumstances, one cow can cultivate the land. If eleven cows cultivate the land together, it means that the soil is hard, the slab clumping is severe, the crop growth is not very good, and the yield may be reduced. Generally speaking, if there is more rain, the soil solidification will intensify.
As for "six people divide cakes", it is better understood, that is, six people share the grain together. It can be said that the grain output is not too many. The more people divide the cake, the more it means that the output is not high. In this way, 2021 may not usher in a bumper year, but this is just a statement from the past. With the improvement of agricultural technology today, the impact of natural conditions on crops has decreased.
2. "Widows do not meet spring, but they will get worms when they meet ox and rice"
2021 Lunar Year is Widows Year , which means there is no "Spring" solar term this year. People believe that the year of widows is not good, and they cannot marry or build a house, otherwise there will be many hardships.
But if a widow meets Taurus, it is completely different. In the people's opinion, if the year of the widow meets the year of the Ox, the output of grain will increase, and the amount of food will be too much to eat, and finally the insects will occur. Although it is exaggerated, it still expresses the meaning of a bumper harvest in the Year of the Ox.
Two different sayings have different results. It can be seen that these old sayings are regional and have no meaning in today's view. After all, with the improvement of technology today, agriculture has stronger ability to resist risks. However, according to official data, the temperature from February to May 2021 is generally higher than in previous years, and there is not much rainfall, and the north and south regions are drought. At present, meteorological drought has occurred in many places, which is not good news for crops. Everyone should pay attention to good irrigation.
