1. What is the best season for picking mulberry leaves and raising silkworms?

Mulberry picking and silkworm rearing are usually done in spring and summer. The growth cycle of silkworm rearing should be roughly the same as that of mulberry trees to ensure an adequate supply of mulberry leaves. Silkworms are metamorphosed insects, and the most common one is the mulberry silkworm, also known as the domestic silkworm, which is one of the economic insects that feeds on mulberry leaves and spins silk cocoons. The silk it spins can be used to make silk quilts or woven into silk fabrics, which have very high economic value.

2. Which month is it best to raise silkworms?

March-June.

The most suitable time for raising silkworms is generally March in spring and May and June in summer.

March is the time when mulberry leaves sprout and grow leaves. Spring silkworms at this time have tender mulberry leaves to eat. With sufficient mulberry leaves to feed on, the silkworms grow bigger and fatter.

3. Is silkworm breeding a busy farm activity in summer?

Yes.

This sentence comes from the third volume of the People's Education Press edition of the textbook "Farmer's Song of the Four Seasons", the original text is as follows:

In spring, the spring breeze blows, flowers bloom, grass grows, and butterflies fly. The wheat seedlings are tender and the mulberry leaves are lush and plump.

In summer, the farm work is busy, from collecting silkworms to planting rice. Getting up early to work, returning home under the moonlight.

In autumn, the rice comes into season, and the grains are as fragrant as gold. Although my body is tired, my heart is full of joy.

In winter, the snow has just cleared up, and the newly made cotton-padded clothes are warm and light. The farm work of the year is over, and everyone is smiling.

4. Which month is it best to raise silkworms?

1. Generally speaking, the season for raising silkworms is spring and summer every year (starting around April each year). Since the main food source for silkworms is mulberry leaves, the season for raising silkworms and the growth cycle of mulberry trees need to be roughly the same to ensure that there are enough mulberry leaves to feed the silkworms.

2. The season of sericulture is related to the region. In the sericulture areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, theoretically, sericulture can be carried out during the eight months from April when mulberry trees sprout and open leaves to November when mulberry leaves turn yellow and fall off, but generally only 3-5 times a year. The sericulture areas in the Pearl River Basin raise sericulture more frequently than those in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, while some sericulture areas around the Yellow River or in the north raise sericulture less frequently than those in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

5. When is the best time to raise silkworms?

Generally speaking, it is more suitable to raise silkworms in spring and summer, which is roughly between April and July. The best time to raise silkworms is roughly the same as the growth cycle of mulberry trees, because only at this time can an adequate supply of mulberry leaves be guaranteed and the silkworms can grow healthily.

The advantages of raising silkworms in spring are that the weather is mild and the quality of mulberry leaves is better, so the silkworms are of higher quality and yield. The time for raising spring silkworms cannot be too late, and it can be done around April. Otherwise, if the weather is bad later, the number of silkworms will be greatly reduced.

6. What is the best time to raise silkworms at home?

Generally speaking, it is more suitable to raise silkworms in spring and summer, which is roughly between April and July. The best time to raise silkworms is roughly the same as the growth cycle of mulberry trees, because only at this time can an adequate supply of mulberry leaves be guaranteed and the silkworms can grow healthily.

The advantages of raising silkworms in spring are that the weather is mild and the quality of mulberry leaves is better, so the silkworms are of higher quality and yield. The time for raising spring silkworms cannot be too late, and it can be done around April. Otherwise, if the weather is bad later, the number of silkworms will be greatly reduced.

In some places where silkworms are raised in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the rainy season is often more frequent in summer, which easily forms a hot and humid environment. Therefore, even if the mulberry leaves grow better at this time, they must be well maintained, otherwise the quality of the cocoons will be poor. In summer, it is best to grow about 4 leaves at the base of the new shoots of the mulberry tree. When raising silkworms, the number should be controlled appropriately.

7. Which month is it best to raise silkworms?

Raising silkworms on mulberry leaves is a good time to do so in June. In June, mulberry leaves are lush, nutritious and easy to feed, so there is enough food for the silkworms. The temperature is also suitable, the silkworms grow fast and the production cycle is short, so it is a good time to raise silkworms.
