Currently, high temperatures and droughts are serious. The Forestry Bureau of Qianjiang District, Chongqing has seized on key aspects such as high-quality cocoons and low prices, refined high-temperature and drought-resistant technologies for sericulture production, and provided support services to plan and implement early to minimize the impact of extreme high temperatures. The impact of sericulture production has promoted the steady development of sericulture.
Overall coordination and production scheduling. Qianjiang District has held sericulture production scheduling meetings five times to seize the key sericulture seasons and work priorities, carefully study and judge climate risks, plan the layout in advance, and ensure that response measures are implemented.
Optimize and improve the price mechanism. Since being affected by the epidemic at the beginning of the year, cocoon and silk products have been unsaleable, prices have dropped by more than 20%, and production materials and construction costs have increased by more than 20%. Using the cocoon income insurance and price pricing mechanism, Qianjiang District’s mid-level cocoon comprehensive income is 49 yuan. /kg, the unit price is among the highest in the country and the highest in Chongqing. In spring and summer, it is 16 yuan/kg and 18 yuan/kg higher than the lowest price in the city, respectively, ensuring that sericulture farmers get the maximum benefit and stabilizing the fundamentals of sericulture development.
Consolidate the foundation and make up for the shortcomings. After fighting the tough battle of mulberry orchard management in spring and summer, the quality and yield of mulberry leaves have been significantly improved. Focusing on fertilizer investment, the district has invested nearly 5 million yuan to solve the problem of fertilizer for sericulture production. The construction of demonstration films has achieved initial results, achieving the effect of leading from one point to another. The construction and quality improvement of facilities has been accelerated. Since last winter, we have paid close attention to the construction and renovation of sericulture facilities. Currently, 678 sericulture greenhouses, 8 silkworm co-breeding rooms, and 1,494 sericulture greenhouses have been renovated in the district, half a year earlier than in previous years. Put into use.
Technical guidance services are in place. In response to the extreme climate, we formulated high-temperature and drought-resistant measures for sericulture production, including ensuring water during the sericulture period, ventilation and cooling of sericulture facilities, optimizing the time for sericulture and mulberry feeding, unified prevention and control of pests and diseases, drought resistance in mulberry gardens, and sericulture safety precautions. Coordinating technical forces, technical personnel from the District Sericulture Management Station, Sericulture Company, and Haitong Company went to villages and households, especially to provide key assistance and guidance to low-altitude areas and sericulture farmers with low sericulture yields. Strengthen the co-breeding management of silkworms and guide the prevention and control of pests and diseases. In cooperation with the Meteorological Bureau, 5 special meteorological information reports have been released to provide timely meteorological and technical information services to silkworm farmers.
Carry out sericulture insurance protection work. In each silkworm season, target profit price insurance for silkworm fresh-grade cocoons and silkworm breeding insurance are carried out in a timely manner to ensure full insurance coverage for sericulture households and improve their ability to resist risks. Supervise insurance agencies to promptly carry out claims settlement work in spring and summer to protect the basic interests of silkworm farmers.
Strengthen inspection and supervision to ensure that drought relief measures are in place. Starting from August 12, the District Forestry Bureau has formed seven inspection teams, led by leaders and followed up by technical forces. They will inspect and supervise forest fire prevention and drought relief during the autumn production of sericulture, so as to promote the steady development of sericulture production.
