Abstract

As an important part of China’s excellent traditional culture, the agricultural classics holds an important position. As one of the representative works of agricultural classics, “Chi Min Yao Shu” condenses the great wisdom of China’s ancient working people, records the agricultural and animal husbandry production experience, including natural disasters governance, sericulture technology, animal husbandry and other practical values, and its research will play an important role in foreign cultural exchanges. At present, there is a certain gap in the research of agricultural classics in China, and the research results are not fruitful. This paper will discuss the practical value of Chi Min Yao Shu and its dissemination in Western and Asian countries from the perspective of skopos theory, and explore its research significance and impact on our international communication with other countries.
