A season for spring plowing

Chinese farmers attach great importance to Jingzhe, since it kicks off spring plowing, one of the busiest times in the farmlands. With insects buzzing, it is time to protect the crops from these pests. Poultry and livestock also need to be protected from diseases.

Spring is considered the most precious time of the year for agriculture. At the beginning of the year, farmers till the soil, giving crops the best possible environment and more nutrition.
