Can you explain that in more relevant terms? AFAIK agriculture has been shut down in the US for the past 2.5 months as well (actually more like past 5-6 months), simply because it's not the growing season.

What are the different growing seasons in China, for different kinds of crops?

There is no single growing season in a country as vast as the United States. Hell, look at a state like California with a huge variety in latitude and altitude you can grow pretty much anything at any time in the year somewhere in California.
