2. In autumn, farmers not only have to harvest and plow in the fall, but also plant crops in the fall, which is also known as the "Three Autumn Activities." During the autumnal equinox, it is easy to encounter continuous rainy weather, which is also a major adverse factor affecting the normal progress of the "Three Autumn Activities." Especially, prolonged rainy weather can cause the crops that are about to be harvested to fall over, rot, or sprout, resulting in significant losses. Therefore, not only do farmers need to rush to harvest the crops in a timely manner, but they also need to plant winter crops at the right time to lay a foundation for a bountiful harvest the following year.

29. 这是在南方地区流传很广的一句谚语，在过去南方种植水稻都是双季的，即早稻和晚稻。在秋分的时候正是南方的双季晚稻抽穗扬花的关键时刻，而早来的低温阴雨很容易形成“秋分寒” 天气，这也是晚稻开花结实的主要威胁。如果在秋分的时候还没有抽穗扬花，那注定当年的水稻产量也不高，很难有收成，所以就有了“割了喂老牛”的说法，其实这句民谚是在提醒我们，在秋分时节必须认真做好预报和防御工作。

29. This is a widely spread proverb in southern regions. In the past, rice planting in the south was double-seasoned, that is, early rice and late rice. The autumnal equinox is the key moment when the late rice in the south is heading into flowering and heading. The early arrival of low temperatures and rainy weather is prone to form "autumn equinox cold" weather, which is also the main threat to the flowering and fruiting of late rice. If the rice has not yet headed and flowered by the autumnal equinox, it is destined that the rice yield in that year will not be high, and there will be little harvest. This is why there is the saying "cutting it to feed the old cow." In fact, this folk proverb is reminding us that it is necessary to take serious forecasting and defense measures during the autumnal equinox season.
