Production process

The production of silk-worm cocoons suitable for reeling involves a multi-step process. First, silk-worm larvae are carefully reared on a diet of mulberry leaves. As the larvae mature, they spin their cocoons, which are then harvested. The cocoons are then boiled or steamed to kill the pupae inside, and the silk fibers are carefully unwound and processed for use in various textile applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of silk-worm cocoons suitable for reeling include mulberry leaves, which serve as the primary food source for the silk-worm larvae, as well as specialized rearing facilities and equipment to ensure the optimal growth and development of the silk-worms. Additionally, skilled labor is required to carefully monitor and manage the silk-worm rearing process.
