Features: This book was born in the context of the entire society's unprecedented emphasis on the "three rural issues" (agriculture, rural areas, and farmers). It is a service almanac closely related to rural life and farmers. Building on the strengths of the 1997 edition of the Farmers' Practical Almanac, this book stays true to the pulse of social progress. Through extensive research in newspapers, magazines, and books, it gathers advanced knowledge and cutting-edge information in fields such as science and technology, economics, law, and culture. It is meticulously organized into 14 categories: "Policies on the Three Rural Issues," "A Brief Talk on Calendars," "Agriculture and Meteorology," "New Knowledge in Science and Technology," "Environment and Resources," "Advocating Science," "WTO and Chinese Agriculture," "Laws and Regulations," "Marketing," "Agricultural Technical Advisor," "Household Encyclopedic Knowledge," "Folk Customs and Etiquette," "Rural Club," and "New Year's Couplets." The book is rich in content, features up-to-date and accurate information, and uses clear and easy-to-understand language. The calendar tables are well-organized and convenient to use. For farmers, this book is not only a wise guide for daily life but also an excellent reference for production and marketing activities.
