The festival of Baisakhi is celebrated at the time of harvest and it is an important festival related to agriculture.
On the day of Baisakhi, farmers harvest the first crop after their hard work and it is a symbol of prosperity and happiness for them. It is important to celebrate it on the Navami Tithi of Shukla Paksha, when the crop is ripe and ready and the hard work after sowing yields results.
