Shaanxi Zi Chang: Raise small silkworms and half of the harvest
“A total of 94 silkworms were raised this time. Every day, technical staff from Shaanxi Fruit Group Sericulture Technology Co., Ltd. came to provide guidance and help us solve the problem in time. Silkworms will basically not appear after the second instar. The big problem is that after three years of age, free-range farmers take the silkworms back and raise them themselves.” Xue Qinglian, a small silkworm farmer in Nanjiamao, Jianyucha Town, Zichang City, said while busy.
Sericulture is the dominant traditional industry of Zichang City. It is also the first batch of sericulture demonstration base counties in the country’s “Eastern Mulberry Movement to the West” and Shaanxi Province. In recent years, Zichang City has increased funding, policy and technical support, actively developed co-breeding of small silkworms, reduced the cost of sericulture, increased the survival rate of sericulture, and promoted the development of the sericulture industry.
Small silkworms grow and develop quickly and are in the stage of strengthening their physical fitness. If the small silkworms are raised well, they will lay a good foundation for a rich cocoon harvest. Moreover, the small silkworms have weak resistance to various pathogens and are susceptible to various diseases. If the disinfection is thorough and the feeding is clean and hygienic, it will be less likely to be infected by germs and a high yield will be guaranteed. Therefore, there is a saying that “raising small silkworms will half the harvest”.
Mu Guanghui, manager of Shaanxi Fruit Group Sericulture Technology Co., Ltd., told reporters that at present, two small silkworm co-breeding bases have been built and put into use in Zichang City, which can produce two batches of young silkworms and more than 600 young silkworms every year. , based on last year’s revenue of 5,400 yuan per ticket, this year’s output value could reach 3.24 million yuan. The co-breeding base of small silkworms is generally contracted to experienced silkworm farmers to raise them intensively. All materials, mulberry leaves, etc. required for the co-breeding are taken care of by the company. After the silkworms are raised to the third age, they are distributed to the silkworm farmers, and the silkworm farmers do not need to pay anything. cost.
The reporter learned that Zichang City currently has more than 8,000 acres of high-quality sericulture. We insist on doing a good job in co-cultivation of small silkworms, consolidate and make good use of these 8,000 acres of sericulture, which will increase the enthusiasm of the majority of silkworm farmers in sericulture and increase the income of the people. It is of great significance to promote rural revitalization, strengthen enterprises and enrich people, and help the healthy, sustainable and stable development of the sericulture industry.
