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!
This is an air-conditioned mansion with constant temperature and humidity. There are no square cages in traditional sericulture. 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, which can realize the separation of breeding and all-weather sericulture.” Luo Zhilang, the head of Napo County, said that in recent years, the county has attracted investment through , introduce leading enterprises, actively explore the development model of “company + cooperative + farmer + technical assistance”, and promote the clustered development of the county’s sericulture industry; develop “all-age intelligent industrialized sericulture” technology and officially enter the production stage this year.
“The first batch of greening was started on February 25 this year, and cocoons have now begun to form. The breeding time is nearly half a month shorter than artificial mulberry leaf silkworm rearing. This result is at the leading level in the country.” Napo Tongyi Said Tian Fafang, technical director of feed sericulture of NewSilk Technology Industrial Co., Ltd.
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, and the output ratio is low. The “all-age intelligent industrialized sericulture” realizes sericulture that does not depend on the weather, does not depend on the season, and does not pollute the environment. It can produce cocoons all year round, increasing the production capacity by more than 5 times, and the silk produced The qualitycan be used to make 5A graderaw 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 is doubled, and the average annual income per mu can reach 10,000 yuan.
The standard workshop, clean environment, and highly intelligent facilities are refreshing. The workshop is divided into four areas according to function: breeding, equipment, cocooning, and cocoon picking. In the fifth-age area, employees set up white plastic baskets and cocooning tools for silkworms, allowing batches of silkworms to smoothly cocoon. “It feels good to be able to get employment at your doorstep. My monthly salary income is more than 4,000 yuan.” said Li Yi, an employee from Longtun Village, Donghan Village, Chengxiang Town. .
It is reported that Napo Tongyixin Silk Technology Industrial Co., Ltd. has built a standardized intensive sericulture demonstration base of 500 acres in Napo County to develop co-breeding of small silkworms and large silkworm breeding. The base can drive more than 2,000 surrounding households and more than 10,000 people. People increase their income and become rich. Currently, the company is promoting the construction of cocoon and silk processing that integrates cocoon and mulberry leaf acquisition, industrial sericulture, white factory silk production, gray silk cloth, refining and dyeing, and digital printing The whole industry chain.
“Through intelligent breeding, sericulture farmers no longer need to get up early during the day to pick mulberry leaves and stay up late at night to raise silkworms, which greatly reduces the risk of planting mulberry and raising silkworms. We also purchase leaves at protected prices to promote the economy of the entire industry chain Benefits.” said Lin Jinwei, chairman of the company.
