There are many sayings about "five grains" in ancient times, and there are two main ones: one refers to rice, millet, millet, wheat and glutinous rice; The other refers to hemp, millet, millet, wheat and glutinous rice. The difference between the two is that the former has rice without hemp, while the latter has hemp without rice. The ancient economic and cultural center was in the Yellow River valley, and the main rice producing area was in the south, while the rice planting in the north was limited, so there was no rice in the original "five grains".

The grain pattern painting originated in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, when the grain was abundant and the country was rich and the people were safe. "Grains" occupy a very high position in Buddhism and Taoism, and are regarded as mascots to seize the essence of heaven and earth. People regard "five grains" as a treasure to ward off evil spirits, so they are used for painting. It was very prosperous in the Qing Dynasty, and many schools were formed all over the country. In other dynasties, because the wars were endless and the country was restless, the five-grain painting could not flourish.

Millet, millet and other crops in the five grains have the characteristics of drought tolerance, barren tolerance and short growth period, so they occupy a particularly important position in the original cultivation of dry land in the north. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the characteristics of "keeping old is easy to do" were discovered, and together with millet, it became an indispensable food for people at that time.

At the same time, it is found that lodging wheat (winter wheat) can be planted in late autumn and early spring, which can solve the problem of green and yellow. In addition, the invention of the stone mill at this time greatly improved the palatability of wheat from grain to pasta, which attracted widespread attention and developed into one of the main grain crops, comparable to millet.

In the Confucian classic Spring and Autumn Annals, it is not a book, but if the crops fail, it is a book. It can be seen that saints attach the most importance to wheat and grains among grains. Agronomists Zhao Guo and Fan Sheng Zhi in the Western Han Dynasty devoted themselves to popularizing wheat planting in Guanzhong area.
