Recently it is the idle period for sericulture, but the people of Zhongfan Village, Chashui Town Several sericulture greenhouses are showing a busy scene. At 5 o’clock every morning, you can see the busy figures of workers. It turns out that the workers are inserting the fungus strains and making full use of the idle resources of the greenhouses to prepare for the next step. The fungus harvest planted seeds of hope.
Zhongfan Village in Chashui Town is a traditional mulberry planting and silkworm raising village In this large village, every household used to grow mulberry and raise silkworms, and income from silkworm cocoons has always been the main source of agricultural income in the village. However, with the increase in migrant workers in recent years and the serious loss of human resources, the traditional method of sericulture has gradually been changed. From the original situation where every household raised sericulture and planted mulberry, several large sericulture households operated sericulture bases and led the villagers to develop together. Sericulture agriculture. Under the guidance of the Qianshan Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, sericulture in the village is now gradually achieving scale and labor-saving. In 2022, it won the title of “National One Village, One Product Sericulture Demonstration Village”.
Now, Zhongfan Village has built a vast mulberry garden. Sericulture greenhouses are built around mulberry gardens to facilitate sericulture production. July is the idle period for sericulture. Zhongfan Village has broadened its ideas and adapted measures to local conditions, guiding farmers to use idle greenhouses to produce fungus in the summer and to use idle greenhouses to grow morels after silkworm breeding in autumn. Some farmers said: “It used to be that we had no income during the idle period after breeding spring and autumn silkworms, and were anxious to stay at home. Now the village has come up with a way to grow edible fungi. We can have income all year round, and it’s good to stay at home.” .”
This exploration of edible fungi cultivation not only improves idle The utilization rate of greenhouses has also broadened the income channels for villagers. In the next step, Zhongfan Village will actively explore and extend the sericulture production industry chain to make “one village, one product” bigger and stronger. At the same time, it will increase villagers’ income and expand the village’s collective economic income, and continue to consolidate and expand the results of poverty alleviation and effectively connect it with rural revitalization.
