Spring worries of sericulture

In Dashoguz velayat, producers of valuable raw materials for the textile industry have started feeding silkworm caterpillars. Due to climatic conditions, the responsible campaign, which involves more than twelve and a half thousand tenants, starts later than in other regions of the country. All producers of important raw materials, in accordance with the concluded agreements, are provided with the necessary volume of grains of high-quality silkworm. All necessary measures have been taken to rear the silkworm caterpillars under optimal conditions. It was taken into account that in order to achieve good results, it is important to properly prepare the wormholes, regulate the temperature and humidity regime, air exchange and lighting in the rearing rooms, and take preventive measures to combat diseases of the silkworm caterpillars.

In the northern region of the country, this year they again plan to harvest five hundred tons of cocoons. Most of them - 184 tons, will be produced in the etrap named after S.A. Niyazov, 80 tons of silkworm cocoons according to contractual obligations will be supplied by farmers of the etraps of Gerogly and Gurbansoltan-edzhe.

Silkworm breeders of the velayat believe that one of the main factors for achieving the set goals is the continuous improvement of the processes of rearing and harvesting silkworm cocoons, the widespread introduction of efficient production methods.

It should be noted that the Dashoguz velayat has all the necessary conditions, including a sufficient raw material base for the consistent development of sericulture. Already today, the total area of mulberry plantations in the region exceeds two thousand hectares, while the intensive development of the fodder base of the industry continues.
