Guizhou Provincial Federation of Trade Unions accurately supports the sericulture industry in Baima Village
“Hello Secretary, I am Liu Baohui, the head of Nayong Township, Zhijin County. We heard that the sericulture industry in Baima Village is doing very well, and we would like to come and learn from it.” On the afternoon of July 27, Yang Renyong, deputy captain of the Guizhou Provincial Federation of Trade Unions’ synchronizing well-off village work team and first secretary of Baima Village, received a call from Liu Baohui, the mayor of Nayong Township, and the two quickly started a “hot chat” on the phone.
Since 2016, the Guizhou Provincial Federation of Trade Unions has carried out party building and poverty alleviation work in Xiongjiachang Town, Zhijin County, Bijie City, focusing on assisting the four villages of Baoshan, Huazui, Baima and Qunchao in the town. Not long ago, the silkworm industry developed in the village fell into a sales crisis, and a large number of cocoons were unsaleable. The Provincial Federation of Trade Unions’ Synchronized Well-off Village Work Team decisively came to help to help villagers solve the sales crisis. They also “upgraded” unsalable silkworm cocoons and made them into high-end silk quilts that were sold out in surrounding areas. The cooperative that was just founded by the villagers also turned the corner and successfully made a profit.
In recent years, some Jiangsu and Zhejiang silk factories have begun to gradually carry out industrial transfer to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places. The labor force in Baima Village There are more than 1,300 people. How to make good use of the home labor force to get rich and get rid of poverty has become a topic for the two committees of the village branch to think about. In 2018, the agricultural department of Jingzhijin County collaborated with Baima Village and Guizhou Jiangning Sericulture Co., Ltd. to plant more than 2,000 acres of mulberry trees. Villagers can earn more than 2,000 yuan a month by working in the company. In 2018, the sericulture industry in Baima Village helped provide employment for more than 6,000 people. The village’s “two committees” decided to extend the industrial chain, and the village’s “two committees” organized cadres and masses to travel to Guangxi and other places Learn silk processing technology, and establish a collective joint-stock economic cooperative in Baima Village, Xiongjiachang Town, Zhijin County to vigorously develop the silkworm industry. After learning that Baima Village had the idea of developing the sericulture industry, the Provincial Federation of Trade Unions invited experts in related fields to conduct demonstrations and provided 800,000 yuan in project funding support for the purchase of saplings and infrastructure construction. Eight months later, the mulberry leaves and silkworm cocoons were sold, and the whole village realized a dividend of 300,000 yuan. In 2019, the village successfully distributed more than 400,000 yuan in dividends.
However, in the first half of this year, the sudden COVID-19 epidemic disrupted the production and sales of silkworms in Baima Village. There is a large backlog of silkworm cocoons that cannot be sold. In the past, cocoons were sold for 28 yuan per pound, but now they can only be sold for 11 yuan per pound. The villagers are still losing money. “During that time, the villagers cried every day and saw that the cocoons could not be sold. We were very heartbroken.” Zhang Longmin, legal person of the Baima Village Collective Economic Cooperative and village party secretary, said that the Provincial Federation of Trade Unions’ Synchronized Well-off Village Working Team learned that the villagers were facing After encountering the dilemma, experts from the county agricultural department were quickly called in for investigation. In the end, everyone believed that the industrial chain must be extended, and the development of a labor-intensive silk quilt industry has promising prospects.
Just do it, the Guizhou Provincial Federation of Trade Unions’ synchronized well-off village work team quickly coordinated project funds for Baima Village, helped the village purchase relevant machinery and equipment, and organized four key personnel with technical knowledge from the village to go to Guangxi After studying in Yizhou, within a month, a small silk processing enterprise started operating in Baima Village.
“The silkworm cocoons here can generally reach more than 1,000 meters of silk, which is a high-quality raw material for processing high-end silk quilts. Silk quilts are currently priced at 358 per pound, and the minimum price for a quilt is about 4 pounds, which can be sold for more than 1,200 yuan.” Yang Renyong told that the silk quilt industry in Baima Village has just started, and 200 quilts have been sold. Because the villagers use enough materials and the quality is good, people are still making frequent purchases. When placing an order over the phone, the order was scheduled for two months later. This small processing plant is expected to increase the per capita annual income of people in Baima Village by more than 2,000 yuan and create employment for 160 people. Yang Dezhen, a villager in Baima Village, has been working in a factory in Zhejiang. After her husband passed away, she raised her two children and the elderly alone. After learning about the establishment of a silkworm processing factory, she immediately signed up to become a sericulture worker. Now she has contracted the breeding of a silkworm house, earning an additional income of more than 4,000 yuan a month.

With the help of the labor union, Baima is now The village has registered the “Linnan White Horse” brand for silk, and the village is also in great need of mulberry-growing and silk-raising technology talents and sales talents. The villagers are willing to cooperate in the form of shares ,Attracting talent.
