피 심기 강직을 덧붙임

피의 성질은 저지대에 습기가 많은 곳이 적합한데, 2월 중순에 땅을 갈고 목작 향명 소흘라 으로 부드럽게 다듬는다. 3월 상순부터 4월 상순까지 언제나 파종할 수 있다. 파종법은 기장, 조 파종법과 동일하다. 또는 종자를 뿌리는 방법도 괜찮다. 밭이 척박하다면 분회 잘 삭힌 거름과 뇨회이다. 아래도 이와 같다. 를 사용하며, 경우에 따라 우선 이랑 사이에 잡초를 깐 뒤에 갈아서 파종한다. 김매기는 2번 한다.

○피 역시 일찍 익는 만종이 있다. 향명 강직(姜稷) 양맥의 바닥에 6월 상순에 심을 수 있다.

Cultivating Barnyard Grass Including Gangjik

Low and wet lands are appropriate for barnyard grass.

The soil (should be) plowed in the second week of the second (lunar) month and well-prepared with a mokjak. Its common name is soheulla.

It is possible to sow any time from the first week of the third month to the first week of the fourth month. The sowing method is the same as that of proso/foxtail millet. Alternatively, scattering the seeds is also fine.

If the fields are barren, use bunhoe. (This is an abbreviation for) aged manure and urinated ash. (This abbreviation will be used) in the following sections, as well. Alternatively, first spread chopped weeds between the ridges prior to plowing and sowing.

Hoeing (should be done) at least twice.

○ Barnyard grass, as well, has a late-sowing quick-ripening variety. Its common name is gangjik. (This late-sowing quick-ripening variety) can be sown at the latest in the first week of the sixth month when double cropping with barley.
