Recently, the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Science and Technology announced the list of provincial science and technology innovation platforms in the agricultural and rural fields. The “Shiquan Sericulture Experimental Demonstration Station of Northwest A&F University” applied by the Sericulture and Silk Research Institute of Northwest A&F University has received provincial recognition. This is a sericulture and silk The institute’s Shiquan Sericulture Experimental Demonstration Base has achieved another progress in the construction of a scientific and technological innovation platform after being approved as a popular science education base of Northwest A&F University in 2022.
Shiquan Sericulture Experimental Demonstration Station relies on the Shiquan Sericulture Experimental Demonstration Base of Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, and cooperates with Shiquan County Sericulture Development Service Center, Shiquan County Silkworm Breeding Farm, Ankang Sangning Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and Shiquan Zhenai Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. The company jointly builds. The starting point is to meet the technical needs of the development of Shiquan’s sericulture industry, with the goal of improving the comprehensive production capacity and efficiency of sericulture, focusing on the public basic fields of sericulture, major key technologies, social public service technologies and product research and development, and based on the existing technical system. Drawing on successful experiences at home and abroad and other industries, condensing Shaanxi Province’s sericulture science and technology resources, focusing on the deep-seated issues of Shaanxi Province’s sericulture industry and sericulture industry technology system, and establishing a planned and step-by-step plan with reasonable layout, optimized structure, clear hierarchy, and clear division of labor , a sericulture industry technology system with complete disciplines, unity and collaboration, efficient operation, and steady development, forming a collaborative network integrating industry, academia, and research to serve the development of the entire sericulture industry chain in Shiquan. Based in Shiquan, facing Shaanxi and radiating across the country.
The experimental station is composed of 15 experts in conjunction with sericulture, food, and plant protection experts from Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, local scientific and technological personnel, and related sericulture enterprises. The National Sericulture Industry Technology System Shaanxi Northern Shaanxi Ecological Mulberry Comprehensive Experiment Station Researcher Su Chao, director of Chang and Sericulture and Silk Research Institute, serves as the chief expert. The main construction contents are:
1. Carry out research and development of key technologies in the application field of sericulture industry. Including mulberry leaf food, mulberry fruit series products, sericulture functional food, mulberry microbial product research and development and industrial development, mulberry leaf feeding research, mulberry extract application in food cosmetics and other fields.
2. Construct a mulberry germplasm resource bank and mulberry expo park. Construct and make good use of the Star Mulberry Expo Park, continue to collect, preserve and identify, and carry out the screening and cultivation of functional mulberry varieties such as rich in selenium, high in alkaloids, high in flavonoids, and high in protein.
3. Build a science and technology demonstration park. Give full play to the leading and exemplary role of science and technology. Establish a labor-saving and efficient sericulture industry technology test demonstration site for moderate-scale operations, and focus on displaying and demonstrating technologies and equipment such as simplified management of mulberry gardens, artificial feed breeding of small silkworms, three-stage sericulture, automatic bunching, and interplanting mulching films in winter fallow mulberry gardens Potato and mulberry orchard chicken raising and other technologies can improve land output efficiency.
4. Create a demonstration model for rural revitalization through the integration of the three industries. Focusing on the existing industrial base of Jincan Town, we will carry out modern sericulture technology display, integration and transformation, product development, cultural construction, agricultural tourism development, etc., and strive to build the base into a technologically advanced, industry-driven, and highly organized base. The integrated development of the three industries has obvious income-increasing effects and is a model for rural revitalization with beautiful countryside.
The “Shiquan Sericulture Experimental Demonstration Station of Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University” has been recognized at the provincial level. It will build a think tank for the development of the sericulture industry in Shiquan County, enhance the innovation capabilities of sericulture technology, promote the in-depth development and utilization of sericulture resources, and promote technology The transformation of achievements provides a high-level scientific research and innovation platform. In the next step, the Sericulture and Silk Research Institute will fully demonstrate the characteristics of professional service regional industrial development, and make positive contributions to promoting the deep integration of the industrial chain and innovation chain, promoting the upgrading of the sericulture industry, and enhancing regional innovation capabilities.
