Yizhou Wangteng Ecological Agriculture Development Professional Cooperative is one of the cooperatives supported in Yizhou by the World Bank-financed Guangxi Rural Poverty Alleviation Pilot Demonstration Project in Poverty-stricken Areas (referred to as the World Bank project). In recent years, Yizhou District has been approved by the Autonomous Region Poverty Alleviation Office as a World Bank project county. The project has cultivated a number of cooperatives with competitive advantages in Yizhou by innovating poverty reduction and development mechanisms and exploring industrial development concepts. Up to now, Yizhou District has established 14 professional farmer cooperatives that have been approved by the World Bank Project Office of the Autonomous Region, including 3 silkworm breeding companies, which have received a total of 9 million yuan in World Bank project funds. While the World Bank project brings financial support to the cooperative, it also provides technical guidance and training to members and the public, and continuously improves technologies in silkworm management, care and breeding, effectively reducing the incidence of small silkworm breeding and reducing the labor intensity of large silkworm breeding.
