Rumor that snow has something to do with crops.

1. Xue Rui heralds a bumper harvest year (Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Anhui, Jiangxi, Hubei and Guizhou).

This proverb is widely circulated by farmers, which means that timely winter snow indicates that the coming year will be a bumper harvest year. Covering crops with snow can keep the soil warm, and at the same time, it is very beneficial to the growth of crops to stay in the soil to water crops after the snow melts.

2. There is no trace of a snow bug, and the second snow will bring Dafeng (expensive) in the coming year.

On a snowy day, those pests froze to death before laying eggs. There will be much less pests and diseases on crops in the coming year. A few snows in succession are equivalent to natural pest control and sterilization, and farmers wait for a bumper harvest next year.

3. Snow water turns into a river, and thousands of grains (expensive).

After the snow melts, stay in the field to irrigate the crops. In winter, it stores more nutrients and grows well. In the coming year, farmers will have a bumper harvest.

4. Light snow is flying all over the sky, and there will be a good year in the coming year (Gan Gan)

Farmers' planting crops is greatly affected by the weather. Farmers will be very happy if it snows in winter from light snow and solar terms. The main reason is that cold weather kills most pests early, which can increase crop yield.

5. Snow hits mountains and frost hits depressions (Anhui)

This is summed up by farmers according to natural phenomena. Usually, there is more snow on mountains and peaks, while there is more frost on low-lying land. This is because the special phenomenon of natural climate shows the great wisdom of farmers.

6. Heavy snow this year, bumper harvest next year (Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jiangxi)

This proverb also tells the truth that "snow indicates a good year".
