Green leaves and silver silk brocade – Baise City vigorously promotes the development of agricultural specialty industries: sericulture
Now is the season when spring cocoons are on the market. Recently, silkworm farmers in Jingxi City have begun selling the second batch of spring cocoons this year. The cocoons are plump in shape and white in color. “The first batch of 400 kilograms of silkworm cocoons sold for 25,000 yuan this year. It is expected that the base will earn about 300,000 yuan this year.” At the silkworm breeding base in Siyuan Village, Ludong Town, the city’s silkworm breeding expert Yi Minghui expressed his joy Beyond words.
It’s not just the silkworm farmers in Siyuan Village who are enjoying the joy of the harvest. Our city has always attached great importance to the development of the sericulture industry and has put forward the goal of “strengthening and optimizing the sericulture industry and accelerating the development of sericultureindustrial cluster“. The output and value of fresh cocoons have increased year by year. In 2022, the city’s mulberry orchard area will be 516,100 acres, with 828,600 silkworms raised annually, fresh cocoon output of 39,700 tons, and fresh cocoon sales revenue of 2.232 billion yuan. The mulberry orchard area, fresh cocoon output, and output value will be 2.05 times and 5.33 times that of 2015 respectively. times, 9.84 times. As of the end of April this year, 29,500 acres of mulberry orchards were newly planted, and 24,000 acres of medium- and low-yield mulberry orchards were renovated. The total area of mulberry orchards in the city was 545,600 acres, a year-on-year increase of 5.71%. In the first half of the year, silkworm cocoon output is expected to exceed 19,500 tons, a significant year-on-year increase.
“On a sunny day in spring, there is a song called Cang Geng. Women hold Yi baskets, follow the subtle steps, and seek soft mulberries.” The picture of mulberry picking and silkworm rearing described in the “Book of Songs” more than 2,000 years ago is now being vividly continued in Baise. With.
Spring silkworms spin cocoons into “gold”
Baise belongs to the south subtropical climate zone, with the Tropic of Cancer running through it. It has a unique three-dimensional climate. The mulberry trees have a long growth period and can raise 7 to 10 batches of silkworms a year. Mountainous counties (cities) such as Jingxi, Napo, Lingyun, and Longlin have warm winters and cool summers, with large temperature differences between day and night. Their unique climatic conditions make the silkworm varieties raised more high-quality and high-yielding, and can produce high-grade 5A to 6Araw silk.
In early summer, when you go to various towns and villages, you can see the mulberry trees in the mulberry gardens on the roadside are full of green, and the breeze blows gently, creating patches of blue waves.
“In the past, silkworm farmers would get up before dawn to collect leaves. Now they cut mulberry leaves in the morning before feeding the silkworms. There is also an electric sliver cutting machine, which can cut enough mulberry leaves for the silkworms in half an hour. It is very efficient. Greatly improved, it is much easier than picking leaves manually!” Huang Ruoyu, director of Pingguo City Sericulture Station, said that in recent years, Pingguo City has vigorously developed mulberry silkworms in the direction of “scale, intensification, factoryization, and modernization”. Industry, increase investment and management of mulberry gardens, standardize planting of mulberry gardens, promote mechanized harvesting of mulberry strips, directly cut down mulberry strips to feed silkworms, instead of just picking leaves, it has the advantages of saving time, saving labor, and improving labor efficiency. .
Sericulture is a technical activity. In order to strengthen the technical support, our city relies on scientific research expert teams such as the National Sericulture Industry Technology System, the National Rural Revitalization Key Assistance County Science and Technology Mission, the Guangxi Sericulture Innovation Team, and the Autonomous Region Sericulture Technology Promotion Station. Technical resources, utilizing and promoting the scientific research and technological achievements of the team, established 21 sericulture science and technology demonstration bases in the city, created 15 sericulture industry modern characteristic agricultural demonstration zones (sites, gardens), cultivated and provided guidance to 15 sericulture professional cooperative organizations, and supported 5 demonstration sites for comprehensive recycling of sericulture resources, assisting in the introduction of 1 seed industry company to promote new varieties of mulberry silkworms, efficient and high-yield cultivation, co-breeding of small silkworms, labor-saving and cost-saving sericulture, comprehensive prevention and control of sericulture diseases and insect pests, checkered silkworms, etc. With advanced and practical technology, the yield and cocoonquality of sericulture have been continuously improved.
“Although raising silkworms is hard work, money comes quickly.” said Huang Xiande, a major silkworm farmer in Longhua Village, Shali Yao Township, Lingyun County. Huang Xiande has been raising silkworms for more than 7 years. The mulberry garden has expanded from less than 10 acres to more than 30 acres now. As a result, he has become an expert in growing mulberry and raising silkworms from a poor household. While doing a good job in co-cultivating young silkworms every year, He also took the lead in planting mulberry and raising silkworms, with an income of nearly 400,000 yuan in 2022. Not only did he become rich himself, but he also taught the villagers the techniques of growing mulberry and raising silkworms without reservation. Driven by his demonstration, there are currently 68 households in the village planting more than 2,000 acres of mulberry gardens, with an annual silkworm raising output value of more than 15 million yuan. .
As the sericulture industry becomes more and more profitable, more and more farmers are welcoming “silkworm babies” into their homes. According to statistics, as of the end of 2022, Baise has 516,100 acres of mulberry gardens, ranking second in the region, covering 101 townships (towns) in 11 counties (cities, districts), 975 sericulture villages, and 61,195 sericulture households. household. The annual number of silkworms raised is 828,600, the output of fresh cocoons is 39,700 tons, and the sales revenue of fresh cocoons is 2.232 billion yuan. The average per capita sericulture household has 8.43 acres of mulberry gardens, and the average annual income of each sericulture household is 36,473 yuan.
Sericulture connects small farmers and large markets, plays a bridge role and continues to drive farmers to increase their income and become rich. It has become an important industry for the ecological economy and rural revitalization in rocky desertification areas.
There is a way to increase benefits through “mulberry”
Silkworms spin silk into “gold”, and the mulberry garden also hides the secret to getting rich: In addition to the mulberry leaves that grow to feed the small silkworms, mulberry branches and mulberry fruits can also increase income.
At the Zhebingtun Edible Fungus Demonstration Base in Qinghua Village, Baihe Township, Napo County, the crushed mulberry branches are made into mushroom packages, wrapped in stick-like shapes and placed neatly. After cultivation, mushrooms “bloom” from the film bags. come out.
Mulberry branches contain high nitrogen content and a large amount of cellulose and other special ingredients.��, is the best raw material for cultivating edible fungi. In recent years, Napo County has developed and cultivated edible fungi based on the rich local silkworm resources and mulberry branches as raw materials. It has adopted the industrial development model of “cooperative + base + farmers” and has demonstrated edible fungi in Zhebingtun, Qinghua Village. The base cultivates oyster mushrooms, Pleurotus pleurotus, fungus and other varieties. It is reported that in 2022, the base will produce 1 million kilograms of fresh mushrooms with an output value of 5 million yuan, helping local farmers increase their income by more than 1,000 yuan per mu of mulberry branches.
In addition to mulberry branches, mulberry fruits also bring additional benefits to the masses. “Our cooperative has planted 7,600 acres of mulberry orchards and 1,200 acres of fruit mulberries in Pinghuai Village. When the mulberry fruits mature, we pick the fruits and sell them to our own winery to make mulberry wine!” Pinghuai Village, Xiajia Town, Lingyun County Yu Zaijian, head of the Silkworm Professional Cooperative, said.
It is reported that the Lingyun County Government introduced Guangxi Jiagui Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. through investment promotion to develop a series of new products such as mulberry juice, mulberry wine, and dried mulberry fruits in Pinghuai Village. , built a fruit winery and two fruit wine processing production lines. In 2022, the company established a mulberry demonstration base of 2,840 acres in Lingyun County. This year the base entered production, purchasing more than 100 tons of mulberry fruits, producing more than 60 tons of mulberry wine, achieving an output value of 18 million yuan, and helping the farmers in the base achieve an annual income increase of 2,200 yuan. Yuan.
The Edible Fungi Demonstration Base and Fruit Mulberry Demonstration Base are the epitome of our city’s active exploration of the diversified development and utilization of sericulture resources. It is understood that at present, our city is researching and developing a series of new products such as mulberry juice, mulberry wine, dried mulberry fruit, mulberry fruit vinegar, and mulberry fruit pigments in Pingguo and Lingyun; Baise City has established mulberry branch cultivation and edible products in Lingyun, Napo and other counties. Bacteria production base has achieved initial results.
Integration paving a new “Silk Road”
At present, there are many areas developing the sericulture industry. How to take advantage of the competition? The answer given by Baise is to use leading enterprises to drive the development of the base, focus on “sericulture +”, and connect “two” and “three” to build the entire sericulturesilk industry chain.
Walking into the production workshop of Napo Tongyixin Silk Technology Industrial Co., Ltd., I saw workers busy operating. After being steamed with boiling water, the “fresh cocoons” wrapped around the silkworms are separated from the cocoons. After a series of processes, a snow-white, bright, light and soft silk quilt is formed.
At present, the company has built 22 sets of silk reeling production lines in Napo. It is reported that the company is promoting the refining and dyeingdigital printing production project in the Silk Road New Area, building a sericulture base, fresh cocoon purchase, white factory silk production, silk weaving, and refining and dyeing in Napo County , digital printing integrated cocoon silk processing industry chain.
In the production workshop of Guangxi Debao Jiangyuan Cocoon Silk Co., Ltd., it is also a busy scene. More than 200 contemporary “weaver girls” perform their duties on six assembly lines, splicing threads, cutting knots, and moisturizing. They have quick eyes and quick hands and are skilled in operations to ensure that the silk they produce is of good quality.
“This year we expect to produce 240 tons of raw silk, with an output value of about 180 million yuan. The products are mainly sold to Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.” Chu Chengping, the person in charge of the company, said that the company’s business scope covers the acquisition of silkworm cocoons, the production, processing and sales of silk fabrics, and the processing of cocoons and silk. Equipment development and maintenance, etc., currently has 240 fully automatic reeling machines, 450 reshaping machines, 8 sets of cocoon selection machines, and 2 cocoon cooking machines, fully absorbing the surrounding poverty-stricken labor force, and effectively promoting the development of the mulberry planting and sericulture industry in Debao County .
The secondary industry extends the chain, and the tertiary industry increases value. In Pinghuai Village, Xiajia Town, Lingyun County, the establishment of a complete industrial chain of primary, secondary and tertiary sericulture industry is also a model. In addition to developing mulberry farming, sericulture, and mulberry wine processing projects, the village also implemented a rural revitalization and greening landscape improvement project to create new business formats such as boutique B&Bs, family leisure farms, rural culture classrooms, and parent-child study bases, forming a “mulberry planting A complete industrial chain of sericulture – intensive processing – pastoral tourism.
Stepping forward on the new “Silk Road”, the prototype of Baise’s sericulture industry chain has begun to take shape. At present, the city has introduced a total of 8 silk reeling processing companies. In 2022, there will be 105 automatic reeling production lines with 42,000 threads. The city will collect 38,100 tons of dried fresh cocoons, and the white factory silk output will be 3,436 tons, with an output value of 1.057 billion yuan. There are 115 rapier looms with an annual output of 2.71 million meters of gray silk, basically forming a cocoon-silk integration.
This year, our city has also established a special class for the sericulture industry. In accordance with the working idea of ”1 leading industry + 1 city leader + 1 working group + 1 technical team”, we will promote the expansion of the scale of mulberry gardens, build bases, Promote practical new technologies, increase financial investment, introduce leading enterprises, and implement restructuring of silk reeling enterprises to ensure that the industrial scale continues to expand, the layout is gradually optimized, the system is increasingly perfected, and the efficiency of industrialized operations is improved.
