The ancient farming literature referred to the stories in ancient novels or literary works that described how farmers survived and developed in a poor and backward environment through hard work and wisdom. In ancient times, the main mode of production for farmers was to grow crops, but at the same time, they also needed to engage in agricultural production such as animal husbandry and hunting. In the face of frequent disasters and climate change, farmers needed to rely on experience and wisdom to deal with various difficulties and challenges to ensure the supply of food and other agricultural products. Farming novels often described the diligence, tenacity, wisdom, perseverance, and courage of farmers, as well as their resistance against natural disasters and thieves.
