A year’s plan lies in spring, and a good year depends on spring ploughing. In the past few days, farmers and herdsmen from Shigatse, Tibet Autonomous Region have lived up to the spring, holding the annual spring ploughing ceremony one after another and entering the busy season of spring ploughing. Among the beautiful valleys, the brightly-colored national flags, the roaring agricultural machinery, and the traditional farming culture form a picture of busy spring ploughing in full swing.
