When is the autumn harvest in the lunar calendar?

According to different regions, the start time of autumn harvest is different, generally around August 15th of the lunar calendar, depending on the harvesting efficiency (tools and labor), ranging from seven days to half a month.

Take Henan Province as an example:

September is generally the autumn harvest season in Henan Province.

Taking 20 18 as an example, the figures released by Henan Provincial Department of Agriculture show that as of the afternoon of September 25th, the harvest of autumn crops in the province has exceeded 60%, and the harvest area of corn, rice, peanuts, melons and vegetables has exceeded 50%.

In terms of planting area, the southern and central regions have harvested more than half. Zhumadian, Ruzhou and Gushi harvested 80%, Zhengzhou, Pingdingshan, Nanyang, Xinyang and Lu Yi harvested 70%, Xinxiang, Puyang, Luohe and Shangqiu harvested 60%, and Luoyang, Anyang, Xuchang, Zhoukou, Jiyuan, Gongyi, Lankao and Changyuan harvested 50%.

Although there has been rain recently, it has little effect on the overall autumn harvest. The key point is to seize the favorable opportunity of fine weather, strengthen the dispatching of agricultural machinery, give full play to the role of agricultural machinery in grasping bumper harvest, speed up the harvesting progress of autumn crops, and ensure that mature crops are harvested one after another and the particles are returned to the warehouse. The mechanized harvest rate of 20 18 corn and peanut was greatly improved. In particular, corn has been directly harvested from the original corncob, which saves manpower and improves work efficiency.
