This year, Jindong Township attaches great importance to the development of sericulture industry, implements responsibilities at various levels, and takes measures to ensure the high yield of silkworm pupa.
Reasonable feeding in stages. The small silkworms implement unified and common education, and achieve special personnel, special rooms, and special equipments to achieve the “supplement of small silkworms and seven percent harvests”; the large silkworms are raised to “six and five matching” to achieve the goal of high yield and good harvest.
Scientific disinfection and disease prevention. To achieve "one sweep, two washes, three brushes, four scrapes, five sprays, six smokers", in the feeding process, adhere to the use of fresh lime powder disinfection, to achieve no virus infection.
Strengthen the management of mulberry gardens. As the saying goes, "If the mulberry tree is good, the mulberry is missing the grass." For the mulberry garden, we should loosen the soil, weed and fertilize in time to ensure the growth of mulberry trees; do a good job of controlling pests and diseases according to the time zone; rationally picking leaves, eliminating excessive leaves or “striping the head”; storing in a relatively cool and humid place, ensuring mulberry leaves fresh.
This year, the production of silkworm cocoons in Jindong Township reached more than 40 kg, and the output reached 544 dan, with an output value of 1.08 million yuan.
