Nanchong: White cocoons turn into “golden cocoons” and the sericulture industry has its own characteristics
At about 10 o’clock on October 6, a truck drove into the Yinhai Silk factory in Jialing District, Nanchong City. There were nearly 10 large bamboo baskets in the cargo compartment. , through the tarpaulin, you can vaguely see the yellow goods.
“We set off at dawn. These are the cocoons harvested during the National Day.” Pan Yanjun and Pan Hu are villagers of Yanshan Village, Jinjia Township, Peng’an County, Nanchong City. They transported the second to last product of the village’s special cooperative this year. Criticize “golden cocoon”.
Opening the tarp, the two men moved 800 kilograms of “golden cocoons” into the drying room of the factory. The warehouse was golden, and the air was filled with the warm fragrance of heated cocoons.
The output increased by 30% and the “golden cocoon” was more environmentally friendly
“This batch is late autumn cocoons. During the National Day, we started collecting cocoons on October 3 and have collected 3 tons so far.” Wang Yuexia, head of Yinhai Silk Production, told reporters that currently “golden cocoons” account for the company’s Ninety percent of the acquisition ratio is the main raw material for silk products.
Two years ago, Yinhai Silk collaborated with Zhejiang University to develop the “golden cocoon” variety. Compared with traditional white cocoons, “golden cocoons” have stronger antibacterial and antiviral capabilities, are easier to breed, and have naturally bright colors. They do not require chemical dyeing after reeling, and the silk fabrics produced are more environmentally friendly.
Last year, “golden cocoons” were cultivated on a large scale for the first time, with more than 6,000 of them developed in Jialing District. “This year we are distributing 8,000 silkworm seeds, 4,000 to Jialing Datong base, and 4,000 to Peng’an, Xichong, Nanfang and other places.” He Guojun, chairman of Yinhai Silk, said that this year’s output is expected to reach 320 tons, a year-on-year increase 30%, fully booked.
“Yellow cocoons are easier to raise.” Pan Yanjun, who has been raising silkworms for five years, started raising “golden cocoons” in the cooperative cooperative last year, harvesting 11 batches of about 5,000 kilograms every year.
“Golden Cocoon” increases added value by 20% to help farmers increase income
Weighing, counting, basketing, drying… In the drying room, the golden “golden cocoons” are neatly arranged and dazzling.
“Drying is a very critical step. Fresh cocoons must be dried immediately and dried twice.” Wang Yuexia said as she opened the side door of the machine and saw that the “golden cocoons” inside were laid flat in four layers. The temperature of each layer is different. It is necessary to ensure that the cocoon is dried before the silkworm pupa turns into a moth, but the temperature should not be too high at one time to avoid increased silk breakage.”
Each batch of “golden cocoons” takes 4 hours to be completely dried. This is only the first step in the fine processing of “golden cocoon”. There will be reeling, testing and other processes in the later stage. “The unique flavonoids in ‘Golden Cocoon’ have to be sent to Shanghai for testing.” He Guojun said that one of the benefits of refinement is that the fabric price of “Golden Cocoon” is 20% higher than that of traditional white cocoon, which improves the product quality. added value.
“Today’s cocoons are estimated to sell for more than 10,000 yuan.” Pan Yanjun said that in a year, the entire cooperative’s “golden cocoons” can sell for more than 200,000 yuan.
“By cultivating ‘golden cocoons’, villagers’ income per piece of silkworm paper is 500 to 800 yuan more than ordinary white silkworm cocoons. Our introduction of the ‘golden cocoon’ variety can further promote the large-scale, standardized and characteristic sericulture industry development, consolidate the achievements of poverty alleviation, and promote the continued increase of income of sericulture farmers.” Chang Yong, director of the Sericulture Industry Development Center of Jialing District, said that Jialing District provides a subsidy of 200 yuan per piece of silkworm paper to poor households who raise sericulture. This year, the 5,000-acre Yinhai Silk Datong Sericulture Industrial Park was established as a Nanchong City Agricultural Demonstration Park, and will continue to apply for a provincial agricultural park next year.
