Fucheng, Sichuan: Intelligent breeding leads to a bumper harvest of silkworms
In early summer, large tracts of mulberry forests in Yangjia Town, Fucheng District, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province are lush and green. Recently, Quan Changliang, an employee of the Yangjia Town Power Supply Service Station of the Urban Power Supply Center of Mianyang Power Supply Company, and his colleagues came to the sericulture greenhouse of mulberry farmer Cui Xingrong to check the power consumption of the intelligent control cabinet, mulberry cutting machine, blower and other equipment in the silkworm co-breeding room. Condition.
Yangjia Town is my country’s high-quality cocoon silk production base. In March this year, it was selected as a “National One Village, One Product Demonstration Village”. It produces “Fucheng Silkworm Cocoon” and “Colorful Rainbow” products Raw silkhas won the National Agricultural Products Geographical Indication Registration Certificate and the “Famous, Special and Excellent New” agricultural product certification, and isexportedto many countries.
“Silkworm rearing has extremely high requirements on temperature and humidity. We used to rely on firewood to dry silkworms, which was very labor-intensive and not environmentally friendly. This year we switched to a new one Intelligent electrical equipment controls the temperature and humidity of the silkworm greenhouse and silkworm co-breeding room. I am confident that I will harvest 9 batches of silkworm cocoons this year, and the production is expected to increase by about 30% compared to last year.” Cui Xingrong said.
Cui Xingrong has been raising silkworms in the traditional way since the 1980s. In 2015, he transferred 150 acres of mulberry gardens, a small silkworm co-breeding room, and two sericulture greenhouses from Mianyang TianhongSilk Co., Ltd., and began to develop the modern sericulture industry Industrial breeding is carried out in the park model, with an annual output of about 8 tons of silkworm cocoons. There are more than 2,000 sericulture farmers in Yangjia Town, with more than 5,000 acres of high-standard mulberry gardens. The total annual output value of the sericulture industry in 2022 is 260 million yuan. In recent years, in order to serve the development of the sericulture industry in Yangjia Town, Mianyang Power Supply Company has continued to increase investment in the power grid, building and expanding power supporting projects for 93 farmers, and providing power stations for 8 power stations where silkworm farmers are concentrated The transformer capacity was increased by 1,000 kVA and 18 kilometers of new low-voltage lines were installed.
In the summer of 2022, Cui Xingrong lost a batch of silkworms due to extreme high temperature weather, causing economic losses of nearly 100,000 yuan. In order to reduce the adverse impact of weather on the growth of silkworms, the Yangjia Town government has vigorously promoted intelligent breeding equipment since March this year. Eight large-scale silkworm farmers have installed new spray devices and intelligent temperature control. Humidity control equipment, Cui Xingrong’s family is one of them.
After installing intelligent temperature and humidity control equipment, farmers’ electricity load has increased significantly. After learning about the situation, Yangjia Town Power Supply Service Station quickly sent people to investigate the site, determine the power supply plan, and completed the installation of new power meters or the expansion of the original two-phase meters before the first batch of spring silkworm breeding began. The Yangjia Town Power Supply Service Station also organizes door-to-door services by “electricity stewards” to understand the electricity needs of silkworm farmers, check the operating status of electrical equipment, and provide reliable power guarantee for silkworm breeding.
“Before, we raised sericulture by ourselves. After large-scale sericulture, the output has increased, and the income has also increased. This is inseparable from the strong support of the power supply company.” Cui Xingrong said, “With new equipment this year, The average price of the first batch of silkworm cocoons sold at the end of May was 10% higher than last year, and the days are getting more and more promising.”
