Silkworm cocoons are weighed and purchased in spring, and silkworm farmers in Suqian, Jiangsu are happy with the harvest
“Your cocoon is beautiful and white this year, so it will definitely sell for a good price.”
“Your cocoon is not bad, it’s so cute!”……
It’s spring cocoon harvest time again, and silkworm farmers are happy with the harvest of spring cocoons. Spring silkworm cocoons have been opened for purchase. The rise in international raw silk prices, the reduction in the scale of the country’s main sericulture production areas due to the epidemic, and the aggravation of the epidemic in India have led to a significant reduction in cocoon production, which has driven the price of silkworm cocoons to rise sharply this spring. The price of silkworm cocoons has doubled compared with previous years, and the faces of silkworm farmers in Sericulture Village, Buzi Town, Sucheng District are filled with the joy of a good harvest.
Plant mulberries densely and raise silkworms simply, and you will get cash in seventeen or eighty days. At the silkworm cocoon purchase site in Silkworm Village, Buzi Town, Sucheng District, there is an endless stream of silkworm farmers who come to sell cocoons. The piles of baskets of silkworm cocoons have formed a “small snow mountain”, becoming the most beautiful scenery in this summer. Weighing, accounting, random inspection, pricing, loading, and settlement, the white cocoons turned into red notes, and the smiles filled the faces of the silkworm farmers, sweeping away the hard work of the past few days.
“The price of silkworm cocoons this year is 60 to 65 yuan per kilogram. I have been raising silkworms for 20 years, and this year’s price is the highest. I have been raising silkworms at home for 18 years. I can earn more than 50,000 yuan per season with spring silkworms. It is really better. The more I work, the harder I work!” said Xu Shouwang, a villager in Silkworm Village. Just a few years ago, Xu Shouwang was still a poor household in the village. The two children at home are still in school, and his wife is unemployed. Xu Shouwang himself has inconvenient legs and feet and cannot do heavy work. Even with various government subsidies, the family can only make ends meet. Later, with the support of the village, Xu Shouwang became a full-time sericulture farmer.
“The price of silkworm cocoons this year is really good!” “How much does your silkworm cocoon cost?” “Look at thequality of our silkworm cocoon. The price cannot be low.” At the cocoon purchasing site, the silkworm farmers were very busy. Snow-white silkworm cocoons have become the “sweet pastry” for villagers to become rich.
In recent years, Buzi Town has comprehensively implemented the rural revitalization strategy, vigorously promoted the revitalization of the sericulture village industry, and built a 2,600-acre sericulture base, injecting vitality into the sericulture village. At the same time, the sericulture industry chain will be lengthened, brand cultivation and promotion will be increased, and the trademark “Sericulture Girl” will be promoted uniformly to help villagers increase their income and become rich. The sericulture industry in the whole village operates according to the “branch + cooperative + company + farmer” model, and a professional cooperative for farmers has been established. There are currently 588 households with members, accounting for 75% of the rural households in the village. Based on the farmers’ own advantages, the cooperative cooperates with relevant municipal and district departments to conduct regular technical training, establish a professional team of planting and breeding, and improve the technical level of the planting and breeding industry.
“In order to strengthen this industry, we have taken the initiative to integrate e-commerce, increase business categories, create diversified cultures, and extend traditional sericulture farming to the food industry. With thinking and exploration, Buzi sericulture industry will open up step by step Create a road to wealth in the ‘Sea of Silkworms’ and Mulberry Fields.” Zhu Fangfang, the mayor of Buzi Town, said proudly that mulberry farming and sericulture have become the most dynamic “sunrise industry”, “green industry” and “wealth-making industry” in the local area.
