Are the 24 solar terms applicable in all parts of China?
I. Generation of Twenty-four Solar Terms The twenty-four solar terms refer to people's behaviors and habits of working in farmland, and gradually plan out specific dates, during which they can do something beneficial to farmland development. Their division is mainly based on the intensity of light and the amount of precipitation, and then people can judge when to sow and when to harvest according to these things. In fact, it is to let people have a general concept of time when they work, and they will not forget the specific time they need to farm through some wrong behaviors.
Second, the deviation of the twenty-four solar terms The differences in geographical conditions across the country make the application of the twenty-four solar terms in the country not very smooth. According to the geographical position of our country, several different climatic zones are divided. The maturity time of crops in these climatic zones is different. For example, some places are cooked once a year, and some places are cooked twice a year. It is necessary to be cautious when using the 24 solar terms.
Because of the great difference in latitude and longitude and the great difference in environment and climate in China, the 24 solar terms can not be easily used in every place, and some modifications must be made. If you copy mechanically, you may not be able to really play the role of the 24 solar terms, and even make people feel that national special festivals like the 24 solar terms are useless.
