China covers an area of as much as 9,600,000 square kilometers. The climate is different from area to area. In the south, it is cool and wet in winter, hot and damp in summer. This area is suitable for growing rice. In the north, it is cold and dry in winter, hot and rainy in summer. Wheat is mainly grown in this area. The western part of China is dry with little rain all the year round. It is not suitable for growing crops, but in some places varieties of fruit are grown. And the eastern part enjoys plenty of rain most of the year, so crops grow very well there.
