Tieling, Liaoning: Silkworm chrysalises are sold online and farmers have high incomes
In the middle of winter, when you walk into a factory in Ningyuantun, Delong Village, Fangmu Town, Xifeng County, Tieling City, Liaoning Province, you can feel the busy atmosphere. Dozens of villagers are sitting around, skillfully using The knife cuts open the silkworm cocoon in his hand and takes the silkworm chrysalis out of the cocoon shell. Several workers quickly weighed and packed the boxes, and soon small boxes filled with silkworm chrysalises filled the table.
“I can earn up to more than 200 yuan a day by cutting silkworm chrysalises at my doorstep. This is thanks to Chi Yue, a college student in our village, who sells silkworm chrysalises online.” Villager Wang Min said that Chi Yue is a “post-95s generation” “The college student is also the first person in Ningyuantun to open up the online sales of silkworm chrysalises.
When the reporter saw Chi Yue, she was busy in the workshop. “These are the first batch of goods today, totaling 7,000 boxes. A special car will come to pick up the goods shortly.” After counting the goods, she explained to the workers carefully.
The tussah industry is the pillar industry of agriculture in Xifeng County, with tens of thousands of farmers making a living from it. Chi Yue is a native of Ningyuantun. She found that most of the older generation used old methods of raising silkworms, traditional artificial temperature control, and sales were mainly wholesale. Although they were busy every year, the efficiency was not high.
“Now that online sales have become a trend, can silkworm chrysalis sales also keep up with the trend?” Chi Yue was reading while thinking about ways to change the status quo.
During college, Chi Yue studied logistics management. By chance, she learned that a well-known e-commerce platform was looking for high-quality agricultural product suppliers in Liaoning.
Chi Yue and other young people won the subsidy project for the primary processing of agricultural products from the production area, and worked with the villagers to build an “assembled silkworm chrysalis cold storage”. The cold storage is equipped with air-cooled condensers, digital thermometers and other equipment to intelligently control the temperature of silkworm chrysalises. “This new equipment greatly improves our probability of obtaining red-skinned silkworm pupae. It can also harden the silkworm pupa case, making it more suitable for long-distance transportation.” With the efforts of Chi Yue and others, Ningyuantun won the first online cooperation project.
As soon as the online project was launched, orders started pouring in. “That month, the silkworm chrysalis from our village was very popular in the three northeastern provinces, and we received tens of thousands of boxes of orders every day.” Chi Yue said that after opening the online sales of silkworm chrysalis, a total of 300,000 kilograms of silkworm chrysalises were sold in the first half-year sales period, with sales of Reaching more than 9 million yuan.
The opening up of online sales has made Ningyuan Village lively. In the cold winter, in the processing site, the villagers compete with each other, and the “Pupa Cutting Report Card” on the wall is constantly being refreshed. “As young people in the village, we must continue to work hard to open up more sales channels and lead more villagers to increase their income and become rich.” Chi Yue said with a smile.
