What is the role of the 24 solar terms in real life?

In real life, the 24 solar terms provide an important reference for people to understand and adapt to nature.

1, seasonal reference:

Among the 24 solar terms, there are "four stands" representing seasonal changes, "two to two points" representing the polar and midpoint of the sun's movement, "three summers and two winters" representing the temperature change curve, "thorn, clear, full and awn" representing natural phenology and crop maturity, "two rains and two snows" representing the time and intensity of rainfall and snowfall, and "two rains and two snows" representing the condensation and condensation of water vapor.

2. Please refer to:

In addition, it is further subdivided into 72 periods, including 40 periods reflecting animal migration and chirping, 13 period reflecting plant germination and flowering, 6 periods reflecting water, ice, rain, dew and spring, and 13 period reflecting sky, earth, air, wind, thunder, electricity and rainbow.

These changes discovered by observing nature are the basic basis for China ancestors to understand nature and an important guide for people to adapt to nature.

The origin and characteristics of the twenty-four solar terms;

1, originated from Lu Chunqiu-Shenshi in the Warring States Period;

"Fu Jia, for people who are also human beings, life is also the land, and raising is also the sky." Agriculture is a social industry that uses biological activities to produce, and its basic logic is life logic and ecological logic.

Because the growth and development of crops are closely related to light, temperature, gas, heat, water and other factors, agricultural production activities must conform to the seasonal and climatic characteristics of crop growth environment, which requires people to accurately observe the weather and grasp the farming season. As the saying goes, "there is no fixed method for farming, and it all depends on the solar terms."

2. The characteristics of the 24 solar terms:

The names of the 24 solar terms represent the remarkable characteristics of seasons, climate and phenology in each period. Through the time frame of 24 solar terms, the ancestors of China grasped the farming season very conveniently, so that crops could "get the sum of time and the right place", produce products that conform to local characteristics, have regional characteristics and give full play to local advantages according to local conditions, and obtain a bumper harvest.
