In the sericulture greenhouse of more than 1,000 square meters, the first spring silkworms of this year have entered the fifth instar stage. The sericulture technicians from the township are busy visiting to raise silkworms. Major players provide guidance on key technologies. Tuo Jinzhang, a technician at the Silkworm Science and Technology Service Station in Taiji Township, Qianjiang District, said: “First of all, ensure the disinfection of silkworm breeding, and the third is to feed mulberry leaves, which must be sufficient every day, because the silkworm breeding area is sparse.”

From the first season of spring silkworm breeding to the harvest of the last batch of autumn cocoons, which lasts for more than five months, it is the busiest period for silkworm farmers. During this period, large silkworm farmers will provide different positions such as picking mulberry leaves and raising small silkworms, guiding villagers to work nearby to achieve a stable increase in income.

She said: “I came here in May this year to prepare silkworms for the fourth season at her house. The salary is 100 yuan a day. I think it is still good.” Okay.”
