Extended data:
As the first clan tribe in the Chinese nation that changed from fishing and hunting to farming, Yan Di Shennong created the agricultural culture of China. Agriculture includes three steps: planting, harvesting and storage, processing and eating.
In the early era of gathering, fishing and hunting before the appearance of primitive agriculture, harvesting, storage and eating were two completely independent processes. What people collect and store may not be edible, and what people eat is often eaten on the spot.
It is not necessarily what was stored before, and the food people store is often not plant seeds. With the appearance of pottery, people have a safe and effective means of storage, which can store food and water for a long time.
Thus, the two independent processes of collection, storage and consumption are closely combined. Only in this case will people form a large demand for plant seeds.
Primitive agriculture began in the Fu era, when gourds were used as drinking utensils. People first planted gourds. In the process of planting gourd, people have accumulated rich planting techniques.
In the era of Nuwa, that is, the pottery age, once the planting technology was combined with the demand for plant seeds, agriculture appeared.
In fact, people began to grow gourds, not necessarily because of demand. It is likely that children started to grow gourds out of hobbies and play.
There are three reasons: children have a lot of free time to take care of, protect and manage their own labor results; Gourd seeds are big and white, which are deeply loved by people. Moreover, gourd seeds are large and easy to sow.
Many places in China have the folk custom of fasting gourd seeds. Adults will scare children by eating gourd seeds, which shows that people attach importance to and protect gourd seeds.
This also implies the long history of gourd cultivation. When they turned to planting grasses to get edible seeds, primitive agriculture was born.
