Autumn: the Season for Harvest
秋天：收获的季节
Autumn is the season for harvest when tree colours change, birds migrate and farms are ready for cropping.
秋季是丰收的季节，草木变色，候鸟振翅迁徙。田地间硕果累累。
There are six solar taps in autumn: Start of Autumn, End of Heat, White Dew, Autumn Equinox, Cold Dew and Frost's Descent.
秋季共包含六个节气：立秋、处暑、白露、秋分、寒露、霜降。
Start of Autumn indicates autumn’s arrival, but it's not until the solar term of End of Heat that the summer heat will eventually disperse.
立秋预示着秋天的到来，而夏季的炎热真正消散则要等到处暑。
Starting with White Dew, the cool autunm days officially begins. From Autumn Equinox to Cold Dew begins the golden time for harvest. It's also the time when people in the Yangtze River basin and areas of the south get busy cropping late rice.
Starting with Frost's Descent, the weather turns much colder and the first frost comes. People then have to find ways to keep frost from their plants, and make preparations for winter.
到霜降时，天气比以前冷得多，人们便要对植物进行人工防霜，为过冬做准备。
During the autumn harvest season rice tarraces form a three dimensional landscape in mountainous areas. They ran about like a shining golden belt decorating the majestic mountains.
秋收之际，成熟后的稻田勾勒出一副立体的风景画，梯田像一条条美丽的金色腰带，装点着雄浑的大山。
In 2018, the Chinese government set up the annual Autumn Equinox as the Harvest Festival for farmers.
2018年，中国政府将每年的秋分设立为中国农民丰收节。
While china has a population of over 1.4 billion, it has a much smaller cultivated land per capita. Therefore, food problems have always been prioritised in the development of national economy and people's livelihood.
中国人口超过14亿，人均耕地少，因此，粮食问题始终是关系国计民生的头等大事。
Yuan Longping, a chinese scientist known as “the father of hybrid rice” has led his research team to study high yielding rice for many years and has helped to solve the problem of food shortage in China.
