In traditional sericulture, it is people’s inherent knowledge that silkworms eat fresh mulberry leaves. However, the author recently visited the “All-Age Intelligent Industrialized Sericulture Workshop” located in Yongle Industrial Park, Napo County, and the scene in front of me was surprising:
Here It is an air-conditioned mansion with constant temperature and humidity. There are no square grids in the traditional sericulture industry. Only 8 to 10 layers of white plastic baskets are neatly arranged. This is a special “nest” for silkworm babies. The white and fat silkworm babies are eating. They are not eating green mulberry leaves, but mud-like special feed. As the silkworms grow, intelligent machinery replaces manual work to “move” them. A whole new model of sericulture, including greening, harvesting ants, raising small silkworms, raising large silkworms, raising cocoons, making cocoons, and picking cocoons, can be completed step by step in the workshop.
“This kind of industrialized sericulture with artificial feed is a disruptive technological revolution in the sericulture industry, realizing the separation of breeding and all-weather sericulture.” Napo County County Mayor Luo Zhilang said that in recent years, the county has introduced leading enterprises through investment promotion to promote the clustered development of the county’s sericulture industry. It has developed “intelligent industrial sericulture for all ages” technological achievements and officially entered the production stage this year.
According to reports, traditional artificial sericulture is affected by seasons, climate, environment and personnel. A person can only raise one or two silkworms a month at most. The output ratio is low. The “intelligent industrialized sericulture for all ages” realizes sericulture that does not depend on the weather, does not depend on the season, and does not pollute the environment. It can raise cocoons 365 days a year. The production capacity is increased by more than 5 times, and the quality of the silk produced can be reeled into 5A grade raw silk. . Due to the separation of planting and breeding, silkworm farmers only grow mulberry and do not raise silkworms. Compared with traditional planting and breeding, the income has doubled, and the average annual income per mu has reached 10,000 yuan.
It is reported that Tongyixin Company has built a standardized intensive sericulture demonstration base of 500 acres in Napo County, which can increase the income of more than 10,000 surrounding farmers and more than 2,000 farmers. Get rich and effectively promote rural revitalization. Currently, the company is building a cocoon and silk processing industry chain that integrates cocoon and mulberry leaf acquisition, industrial sericulture, white factory silk production, gray silk cloth, refining and dyeing, and digital printing. </p
