Grain Rain
谷雨是春季的第六个节气。这时天气温和，雨水明显增多，对谷类作物的生长发育影响很大。雨水适量有利于越冬作物的返青拔节和春播作物的播种出苗，但雨水过量或严重干旱，则往往造成危害，影响后期产量。
Guyu is the sixth solar term of spring. during which time it is mild and the rain increases significantly, impacting the growth and development of cereal crops. The appropriate amount of rain is conducive to the rejuvenation and jointing of overwintering crops and the sowing and emergence of spring-sown crops, but excessive rainfall or severe drought often causes harm and affects the yield in the later stage.
