CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What is the time between silkworm breeding? (What is the time between silkworm breeding?)

1. 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.

2. When is the season for raising silkworms?

Silkworms are usually raised in spring and summer. The most important thing to note about silkworm raising is that the growth cycle should be the same as that of mulberry trees to ensure that the silkworms have enough mulberry leaves to eat. Silkworms are metamorphosed insects, and the most common ones are mulberry silkworms, also known as domestic silkworms.

3. What is the best season for raising silkworms?

In addition to winter, spring, summer and autumn are all possible. Generally speaking, as long as there are mulberry leaves, silkworms can be raised. In Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions of my country, silkworms can be raised in spring, summer and autumn except winter. In the silkworm areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, silkworms can be raised within 8 months from April when mulberry trees sprout and open leaves to November when mulberry leaves turn yellow and fall off.

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. Which month is it best to raise silkworms?

The silkworm breeding period is generally from April to November, that is, from the time when mulberry leaves sprout and open to the time when mulberry leaves turn yellow and fall off. It takes about 40-50 days for silkworms to transform from eggs into moths, which is related to factors such as temperature, humidity, and feeding in the growing environment.

6. How many times a year do you raise silkworms?

In the natural environment, silkworms can be raised twice a year, but in the artificial breeding environment, the number of breeding times will increase, and the number of times silkworms are raised in different regions is also different. In the Yangtze River Basin, silkworms can be raised 4-5 times a year from late April to mid-to-late October; in North China, silkworms can be raised 2-3 times a year from May to September; in the Pearl River Basin, silkworms can be raised 7-8 times a year from March to November each year.

7. When can I raise silkworms?

In addition to winter, spring, summer and autumn are all possible. Generally speaking, as long as there are mulberry leaves, silkworms can be raised. In Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions of my country, silkworms can be raised in spring, summer and autumn except winter. In the silkworm areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, silkworms can be raised within 8 months from April when mulberry trees sprout and open leaves to November when mulberry leaves turn yellow and fall off.

During the growth and development of silkworms, the temperature of the surrounding environment is relatively high. From the hatching of silkworm seeds to the final cocooning, the temperature in the silkworm room needs to be controlled at 24-28℃. Of course, the temperature control needs to be slightly adjusted according to the different silkworm stages. During the 1-5 years of silkworms, if the temperature in the silkworm room is lower than 20℃, the silkworms will obviously slow down their feeding of mulberry leaves, and large and small silkworms are likely to appear; if the temperature in the silkworm room is higher than 30℃, the silkworms will appear irritable and restless. In addition, when the relative humidity in the silkworm room is greater than 90% and the silkworm feces are thick, it is easy for bacteria to breed in the silkworm seat, thereby inducing a variety of silkworm diseases and causing great losses to farmers. Therefore, during the entire silkworm period, the temperature and humidity in the silkworm room must be strictly controlled to create a relatively good growth environment for the silkworms, avoid the phenomenon of hot and cold, and the indoor temperature can only fluctuate within a small range.

8. 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.

9. Which month do we start raising silkworms?

Around April.

Generally speaking, silkworm breeding starts around April each year, specifically in spring and summer. Since the main food source for silkworms is mulberry leaves, the breeding of silkworms needs to be basically consistent with the growth cycle of mulberry trees, so as to ensure that there are enough fresh mulberry leaves for the silkworms to eat.

In the sericulture areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, silkworms can theoretically be raised during the eight months from April to November each year, but generally only 3-5 times.
