In recent years, seizing the opportunity of collaboration between the east and west, Fenggang County introduced Mercury Home Textiles to settle in Fenggang and established Zunyi Star Silk Road Biotechnology Co., Ltd., with an organization of “party branch + enterprise + professional cooperative + farmer” methods to comprehensively promote the large-scale and intensive development of the sericulture industry.
“One silkworm can produce about 50 kilograms of cocoon. It will take about 10 days to spin silk and cocoon. The eight silkworms I raise are expected to earn 16,000 yuan.” May 26, Fenggang County Chen Yong, a silkworm farmer in Jinji Community, Suiyang Town, said.
In 2019, Chen Yong aimed at the “short-term, flat and fast” characteristics of the mulberry planting and sericulture industry, and took advantage of the county’s policy to encourage the mulberry planting and sericulture industry. He invested a total of more than 200,000 yuan and transferred more than 100 yuan. Mulberry trees were planted on an acre of land, and 7 silkworms were raised that year, earning more than 10,000 yuan. Mulberry trees were planted in the same year, silkworms were raised in the same year, and profits were made in the same year.
There are currently more than 980 professional silkworm farmers in Fenggang. Nowadays, it is the best time to raise silkworms, and silkworm babies are growing well. In 2021, Fenggang County raised 3,131 silkworms, sold more than 100,000 kilograms of cocoons, and achieved an output value of 4.7906 million yuan. 74 sericulture industry cooperatives have been established in 14 towns and streets in the county, and 130 large sericulture industry households with moderate scale and good operating benefits have been developed. At the same time, the county relies on the technical resources of the Provincial Institute of Sericulture to provide all-round technical guidance to silkworm farmers from the planning and layout of silkworm houses, disinfection and disease prevention, mulberry leaf feeding, etc., so that silkworm farmers can master systematic, professional and scientific sericulture technology. It is estimated that in 2022, the county’s 50,000 acres of sericulture can raise 50,000 silkworms, sell 2,000 tons of silkworm cocoons, realize an output value of 92 million yuan, and average household income from sericulture of 48,000 yuan.
