The first batch of silkworms were bred and distributed in Shiquan County, Shaanxi Province in spring
On May 14, people gathered in front of the silkworm co-breeding room in Minzhu Village, Zhongchi Town, Shiquan County. Some of them were carrying baskets, pushing trolleys, and pulling frame carts. Riding motorcycles and driving cars, these men and women, old and young, crowded around the door of the silkworm co-breeding room, talking about this year’s weather changes and sericulture policies. The scene was very lively. It turns out that these people are all silkworm farmers near the village who come to collect the baby silkworms, and co-breeding households a little further away. The silkworm co-breeding point uses disinfected special transport vehicles to transport the baby silkworms to the households to ensure that the baby silkworms are delivered from the co-breeding point. room to the safety of sericulture farmers.
There are a total of 20 small silkworm co-breeding sites in 11 towns in Shiquan County this year. The county’s Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau dispatched sericulture technical cadres to each small silkworm co-breeding site and large households to provide technical guidance, teach step by step, and work with the masses. Since the distribution of silkworm seeds on May 4, all co-breeding sites and large households have become busy. First, they will replenish silkworm seeds and accelerate greening (seed stalls, dark protection, and control of temperature and humidity). They will be exposed to light at 5:00 on the morning of the 6th. From 8.00 to 9.00, start adding small silkworm nets and wait for the small silkworms to climb up the net surface to disinfect the ant bodies. Then sprinkle the yellow and green ant mulberry leaves cut by the mulberry cutting machine on the silkworm bodies, and press every 2 hours a day. Adjust the temperature and humidity of the silkworm co-breeding room with standard temperature and humidity; carry out seat expansion, seat uniformity, silkworm body disinfection, leaf feeding, environmental disinfection and other work every 6 hours. After technical personnel and co-breeding point co-cultivating personnel After 9 days of careful breeding and careful care, the baby silkworms thrived under standard temperature, humidity and mature mulberry leaves. After two molts, they transformed into 3-year-old silkworms with strong physique and neat development.
Looking at the neatly developed little silkworms that are active in eating mulberry, all the co-cultivators felt happy: This year, the Rural Work Leading Group of the Shiquan County Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the “Shiquan County Agricultural Industry Development Award and Support Plan in 2023”. The incentives and support for the development of the sericulture industry are clarified: first, farmers are organized to develop the sericulture industry, and the silkworm seeds are rewarded to the village collective economy at a rate of 35 yuan/piece, and the village collective economic organization rewards the households according to the seed distribution account signed and confirmed by the farmers; secondly, Firstly, high-quality cocoons registered and sold in the traceability system will be given a bonus of 1 yuan/catty; thirdly, those who purchase sericulture machinery will be given a 50% bonus (the purchase invoice and the actual product shall prevail), with a maximum bonus of 1,000 per set. Yuan; fourth, if the number of small silkworm co-breeding spots reaches more than 200 pieces per year, the implementation of a series of sericulture incentive and support policies such as a 50 yuan/piece reward and subsidy will give the majority of silkworm farmers in Shiquan a reassurance to develop the sericulture industry. After another eighteen or nineteen days of feeding, care and maintenance, the silkworms can be put on the market as spring silkworm cocoons. In addition, interplanting with mulberry grains, raising chickens in mulberry orchards, interplanting potatoes, soybeans, sweet potatoes, etc. in mulberry orchards, as well as the promotion and application of new silkworm varieties, With the current increase in the price of silkworm cocoons in Guangxi, there is reason to believe that this year’s sericulture production will be another good year.
