Nanzhang, Hubei: Silkworm breeding helps rural revitalization
Silkworm mulberry is a traditional advantageous industry in Nanzhang County, Hubei Province. At its peak, the area of mulberry gardens, number of silkworms raised, and cocoon production ranked among the best in the province. In recent years, Nanzhang County has relied on the advantages of local planting and breeding resources and followed the path of industrial development through the “company + base + farmer” model, guiding the masses to develop large-scale and intensive sericulture industry, continuously increasing the income of the masses, and strengthening the collective economy. Help rural revitalization.
In early summer, when I walked into the silkworm breeding greenhouse in Duanheping Village, Banqiao Town, Nanzhang County, I saw white silk cocoons as big as pigeon eggs, scattered like “silver ingots” on the silkworm clusters.
In order to strengthen the collective economy and drive villagers to get rich, in 2018, Duanheping Village established the Nanzhang County Jundong Silkworm Breeding Professional Cooperative, building a 400-square-meter sericulture greenhouse and a 100-square-meter silkworm co-breeding room. At the same time, 100 square meters of land were transferred Mulberry trees are planted in acres and acres. With the help of the village team of Xiangyang Financing Guarantee Group Co., Ltd., silkworm breeding reached a scale of 20 sheets this spring.
According to the 2021 silkworm cocoon market price budget, this year, silkworm breeding in Duanheping Village alone can bring more than 50,000 yuan in income to the village collective, and at the same time drive 10 farmers to work through the base, increasing household income. For nearly 10,000 yuan, the purchase of more than 20,000 kilograms of mulberry leaves from farmers brought economic benefits of more than 10,000 yuan to the farmers.
