Xincheng, Guangxi: Promote the extension of sericulture industry to modern industry

From planting mulberries, raising silkworms, producing cocoons, to reeling silk and producing silk fabrics… Xincheng County promotes the transformation of the mulberry silkworm industry from traditional agriculture to modern agriculture Industrial extension has opened up a new development path.

In recent years, the county has actively seized the development opportunities of the country’s “Eastern Mulberry Movement to the West”, focusing on building a standardized demonstration base for mulberry silkworms and cultivating leading cocoon and silk processing enterprises, vigorously developing the mulberry cocoon and silk industry, and promoting the county’s industrial economy. Steady growth.

In the first quarter of this year, the regional GDP of Xincheng County was 1.825 billion yuan, a growth rate of 8.7%, of which the added value of the secondary industry was 460 million yuan, a growth rate of 15.2%; the total industrial output value above designated size grew 47.1%, almost All major indicators ranked first in Laibin City, achieving a “good start”. Among them, the total output value of the secondary industry above designated size has grown rapidly, with the largest contribution being the cocoon and silk industry.

A silkworm cocoon makes a people rich

“I raised half a sheet of silkworms in the first batch, with a high survival rate. I harvested 80 kilograms of cocoons, selling for 40 yuan per kilogram, and a total income of 3,200 yuan. Now I have raised a sheet and a half in the second batch, which will be available soon. The cocoon is gone.” On April 26, Lan Hengxian, a villager in Xiyitun, Xinwei Village, Xinwei Township, Xincheng County, happily calculated the income from sericulture. According to the current price and output, his income from silkworm production in the first half of this year is expected to reach 30,000 yuan, which is higher than his income from working outside.

Currently, all cocoon purchasing sites in Xincheng County are busy opening scales to purchase white cocoons. “The quality of this year’s silkworm cocoons is good, and the output is also good. We collect more than 4,000 kilograms a day. After collecting, we take them directly to the Jade Silkworm Reeling Factory for reeling.” The owner of the silkworm reeling factory acquisition business said.

As a major sericulture county in Guangxi and the country, Xincheng County’s sericulture industry is the county’s main pillar industry and has won titles such as “Top Ten Counties for the Development of Silkworms in Guangxi” and “China’s High-Quality Silk Production Base”. Last year, the county’s silkworm development area was 258,700 acres, more than 800,000 silkworm seeds were raised annually, and silkworm farmers’ income was more than 800 million yuan.

Since the beginning of spring this year, Xincheng has timely introduced a reward and subsidy policy for the silkworm industry, giving subsidies to silkworm farmers for new planting of mulberry, ratoon mulberry and fourth-instar silkworms, injecting a “boost” into consolidating and expanding the results of poverty alleviation and the effective connection with rural revitalization. . At the same time, we organize agricultural departments and experts at all levels to conduct technical training in towns, villages, and mulberry gardens, and guide silkworm farmers to prevent and control diseases and pests in mulberry gardens, carefully raise silkworms, and disinfect and prevent diseases in silkworm houses to ensure that every household has an income from sericulture.

One base drives industrialized production

Industrial development cannot be separated from the support of platforms. Xincheng County has built a standardized silkworm breeding base and used it as a platform to promote the innovation and application of advanced technologies, thus driving the high-quality development of the silkworm industry.

In the standardized silkworm breeding demonstration base in Lang Village, Gupeng Town, the county, a standardized large silkworm room and small silkworm co-breeding room were built, equipped with automatic silkworm raising equipment such as cleaning machines, leaf cutters, skateboards, and elevators. , guiding the transformation of traditional individual dispersed breeding into a standardized and modern factory-style breeding model, and realizing “one-stop” industrial production from silkworm seed hatching to cocooning.

“This year, our base has once again undergone technical transformation, optimized the layout of buildings and equipment applications, and expanded the scale of fourth-instar silkworm seedling cultivation. Based on the output of 4,866 silkworm seedlings last year (10,000 silkworms per piece), it is expected to be achieved this year. The output of 10,000 fourth-instar silkworms has radiated more than 5,000 farmers in Gupeng, Beigeng, Suiyi, Hongdu and other towns to increase their income and become rich.” Xiang Lisheng, the first secretary of Shanglang Village, said that currently, the demonstration The point is operated by Guangxi Huizhi Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. Hechi College provides planting and breeding technical support. Real-time monitoring, room temperature monitoring and other equipment are installed in the homes of silkworm farmers, so silkworm farmers can receive technical guidance and help without leaving home. Through technological sericulture, the survival rate of young silkworms has increased from 65% to 95%. Each silkworm seedling can produce an additional 15 kilograms of cocoons, which can bring an additional income of 6 million yuan to surrounding silkworm farmers in one year.

At present, Xincheng County is building two core demonstration bases for the modern sericulture industry with Lang Village in Gupeng Town and Liuna Village in Hongdu Town as the core areas. The base adopts the operation cooperation model of “leading enterprises + universities + cooperatives + bases”, which has successfully solved the problem of low survival rate of silkworm farmers, and the experience model is being promoted throughout the county. Through the demonstration of the base, the standardization, scale and intensive development of the sericulture industry will be realized, and the sericulture industry in the county will be promoted to a new level.

A large project aggregationIndustrial Cluster

The machine was rumbling and silver threads were flying. On April 26, the reporter walked into the large factory building of the Sanjiangkou (Xincheng) Cocoon Silk Industrial Park in Hongdu Town, Xincheng County. Workers were busy drawing wires and assembly lines. According to the person in charge of Guangxi Tongyi National Silk Development Co., Ltd., the silk factory in Sanjiangkou Cocoon Silk Industrial Park has been operating normally after trial production, with an output value of 3.83 million yuan in the first quarter of this year.

Sanjiangkou (Xincheng) Cocoon and Silk Industrial Park is the fourth batch of major projects coordinated and promoted at the autonomous region level in 2020, with a total investment of 5 billion yuan. The projects include fresh cocoon drying, silk reeling, silk weaving, whitening, printing and dyeing (Digital printing), clothing, home clothing, bedding, foreign trade, etc.

It is understood that after the project is completed, it will become the largest single cocoon and silk industrial park in the country, rewriting Guangxi Wuzhen Silkintelligent refining, dyeing, printing and finishing production, and Xincheng Wuzhen Silk Industry Park. History of Silk Production. The entire project can achieve annual sales of about 10 billion yuan, profits and taxes of about 500 million yuan, solve the employment problem of 15,000 people, and lead the employment of 150,000 people in the county.

Relying on the rich cocoon resource advantages, Xincheng County focuses on cultivating a silk industry cluster led by the Sanjiangkou (Xincheng) Cocoon Silk Industrial Park project, creating a core of high-end dyeing and finishing and fabric production, and moving towards spinning and weaving. The textile industry chain of “one core and two ends extending” is expanded with clothing and home textiles. Today, six key silk enterprises including Dongshixin, Hengye, Haoyunlai, Ruilong, Yucan and Sanjiangkou have been completed and put into operation. A small cocoon is “breaking out of the cocoon and reborn” with the development of the industry, creating unlimited development “mulberry” opportunities for the local economy.
