Why was the Loess Plateau, which gave birth to the Chinese nation, abandoned by its ancestors?

As we all know, now is the apple harvest season, in fact, there are two periods of the year that are the busiest, one is the apple bagging period, and the other is the apple picking period, so to speak! First of all, we should understand the "Loess Plateau".

The Loess Plateau, commonly known as the "Earth Mountain", can be said to be covered with thick soil on the stones, people are tired of hiking up the mountain, if you drive it is steep and difficult to walk, it is difficult to walk, so why do you want to grow apples in such terrain? Maybe you don't know that if you want to grow "apples" well, you must have the right time, place and people.

Tianshi: Apple is a mostly arid product, although apples can be grown in the best places, but if you want to be sweet, crisp and thin, you need to plant in most arid areas, and the Loess Plateau has this condition. You can check on the Internet to see if this is the case.

Location: The roots of apples should be solid and thick, so that they are conducive to having enough nutrients, so the apples that grow are big, sweet and crisp, which is also a requirement for the soil, which also fully confirms the characteristics of the Loess Plateau.

Renhe: On the mountain! Someone has to take care of it often, there are more birds and animals, which affects the number of apples. I won't say much about this, please see below.

The Loess Plateau can grow good apples, which is also a good business opportunity here in northern Shaanxi, so it! Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds if companies encourage people to plant apple trees in the mountains, which can achieve afforestation and profit? Later, every household set up a cooperative and planted apple trees together, and later the apples of northern Shaanxi became famous, and now the apples of northern Shaanxi are recognized by people both in foreigners and in China.

<> as for why the growers are "tired" during this time? This is the best time to pick apples, which are fully ripe, so beyond! Many merchants came to order, so let's pick the apples!

It has to be artificial! The machine on the plain can not enter the orchard at all, resulting in every apple to be picked manually, the cost is very large, I am a native of northern Shaanxi, my family also grows apples, I can experience the pain and tiredness of picking apples, itself in the late autumn, the hand is cold to stretch out, let alone pick those cold apples, and the hand and head have to look up at 45 °, the apple itself is heavy, it is more troublesome to pick, at the end of the day I feel that I am about to become a "Fei Yuqing" star, and this is not a day or two can be picked, It takes half a month to pick well, provided that there are more people. The most troublesome thing is that I have to go to that mountain after picking it, I am really tired!

This is apple picking, and then the apples have to be loaded, and if the truck can't go up the mountain, it has to be manually pushed down the cart. Wow, the baby is bitter, and the baby doesn't want to say it!

The trouble is that the "apple picking machine" can't enter the mountainous area, and it doesn't take a few machines and a few people to pick all the apples in the plains like Luochuan, so the most tired people are our apple farmers on the Loess Plateau. Here I want to say: apple farmers, everyone has worked hard!

10,000 acres of orchards. <>

Dryness, strong winds, loess, create a special landscape in these areas. In spring and winter, the dry climate makes the loess float on the surface, and the strong winds carry these loess into the air, which adds some tragic and bold atmosphere to these areas. Plenty of light.

Due to the cold in this area, most of the crops are one-season, that is, planted in spring and harvested in autumn, and there is no farm work in winter. In the warm winter sunshine, a row of men, women and children squatting in the corner of the wall to bask in the sun, men smoke bags of dry tobacco, and women pull homely cooking, which is a unique scenery here.

With the development of the economy, this landscape can only be seen occasionally in rural areas. The caves are typical of the housing in this area. Shaanxi, Shanxi still have caves.

It is warm in winter and cool in summer, especially suitable for living. However, it is not suitable for the aesthetic and living needs of modern people in terms of appearance, and has been abandoned by many people. But there are still many caves in the countryside.

The loess has a soft structure, is easy to cultivate, and is very fertile, which is conducive to plant growth. In the era of underdeveloped productive forces, geographical conditions had an important impact on the characteristics of local civilizations.

The characteristics of the loess gave birth to dry-fed agriculture on the Loess Plateau, which was different from that of the Nile, Indus and Two River basins, supporting a unique ancient civilization. Geologists and archaeologists have found very dense settlements of ancient inhabitants in the Loess region, such as the Lantian people of the Old Chronological Period, the Dingcun People, and the remains of the Yangshao culture of the New Chronological Period. However, the softness of the loess is also its weak point, which makes it susceptible to erosion and soil erosion, and the sediment and flooding of the Yellow River have been a problem for thousands of years.

If there is no loess.

On the plateau, the Chinese culture will be centered on the Yangtze River culture.

The culture of the Loess Plateau belongs to a part of Chinese culture and belongs to the regional culture. So what is "Loess Plateau Culture"? To put it simply, the culture of the Loess Plateau is named after the customary appellation "Loess Plateau".

However, this region is too vast and contains many provinces, autonomous regions and ethnic groups, and the cultural forms of these many provinces, autonomous regions and ethnic groups are not the same, and they cannot be summarized by one concept. According to the attributes and characteristics of people's habitual concepts and cultural contents, the culture of the Loess Plateau refers to the specific region in the western part of the Loess Plateau, which is centered on the northern part of Shaanxi, including the mountainous areas of northwest Shanxi, the southern part of the Hetao in Inner Mongolia, and the parts of Gansu and Ningxia near northern Shaanxi.
