What does it mean to hit six or nine heads in spring and prepare for early ploughing?

In spring, it means to make preparations for ploughing early:

This means that the beginning of spring is on the first day of "Counting Nine", which starts from the winter solstice. Every nine days is a stage, and one * * * is nine stages, which is 8 1 day, which is what we often call "counting nine".

This rural proverb tells people that, generally speaking, beginning of spring is on the first day of "June 9th", which is also the beginning of spring, and the temperature is getting warmer, so it is often the time to consider and remind farmers to prepare for spring ploughing.

If beginning of spring is on the last day of May 9th, the wheat harvest will be better, but the harvest of other crops is not optimistic. Therefore, there is also a saying that "every family in Kyubi no Youko eats white rice in spring". If beginning of spring falls on the first day of June 9th, this is normal. Of course, different regions have different opinions, and some regions will say that "spring strikes six or nine heads, ten farmers and nine worries."
