After more than 40 years of reform and opening up, the sericulture industry in Shiquan County, Shaanxi Province has accumulated considerable development and established an industrial system that integrates agriculture, industry, and trade and the integrated development of industry, culture, and tourism. The annual comprehensive output value of the county’s sericulture industry Reaching 1.8 billion yuan, it has become the leading agricultural industry in the county, the supporting industry for rural revitalization, the pillar industry for strengthening the county industrially, and the advantageous industry for ecologically enriching the people. In the process of promoting the transformation, upgrading and high-quality development of the county’s sericulture industry, the county adheres to the idea of ”establishing mulberry as an industry, diversified development, improving quality and efficiency, and cross-border integration”, and utilizes the two major resource endowments of county sericulture and selenium-rich, focusing on The sericulture industry is extending and replenishing the chain, and making beautiful “selenium” articles on sericulture.
The first is to plan selenium-rich sericulture and adhere to planning to lead the way. In order to deeply tap the nutritional potential, selenium-rich potential, green potential, regeneration potential and medical potential of the sericulture industry, Shiquan County has included the development of selenium-rich sericulture in the “Shiquan County “14th Five-Year Plan” Sericulture Industry Development Plan” and “Shiquan County Sericulture and Silk Industry Chain Development Plan”, seize the opportunity of the construction of the Shaanxi Sericulture Industry Development Research Institute, drive scientific research and innovation in the sericulture industry chain, and use rich resources such as mulberry leaves, mulberry fruits, mulberry branches, silkworm pupae, silk protein, and mulberry huang to focus on building sericulture food, The selenium-rich sericulture industry chain, including health care products, tea products, alcoholic beverages, daily chemicals, cosmetics, animal feed, bio-organic fertilizers and new medical materials, is committed to forming a circulation circle within the sericulture industry and aims to promote the utilization of sericulture industry resources. Maximize and realize the efficiency and potential of the internal benefits of the sericulture industry.
The second is to cultivate leading enterprises and develop new breakthroughs in selenium-rich products. Shaanxi Shiquan Zhenai Ecological Agriculture Technology Co., Ltd. adheres to the functional value of mulberry leaves as “medicine and food”, focuses on the “protein manufacturing factory” of mulberry trees and high selenium-concentrating plants, and uses the county’s abundant mulberry leaves and selenium-rich belt resources to develop sericulture. There are more than 20 selenium-rich sericulture biological health products in four categories: food, mulberry leaf tea, health products, and daily chemicals. Among them, Maobairui’s “mulberry leaf whole powder” won the title of China’s green food A-level product, and “mulberry leaf fu tea” Won the Gold Medal at the 4th China Forest Food Trade Expo, “Mulberry Leaf Crispy” won the Quality Award at the 4th China Forest Food Trade Expo, and Mulberry Leaf Cordyceps Militaris Meal Replacement Powder obtained a national patent. Shiquan County Bose Sericulture Industry Investment Co., Ltd. uses mulberry, which is known as the “folk holy fruit” and is praised by the medical community as “the best health fruit of the 21st century”, as raw material. It is rich in active proteins, vitamins, amino acids, With the unique advantages of anthocyanins, carotene, minerals and resveratrol, BoSe Ziyun Manor mulberry wine was developed. Its brewing technology won the second prize for scientific and technological achievements in Ankang City, and it is committed to creating “Chinese Purple Wine”. Shaanxi Caizitou Food Technology Co., Ltd. will develop selenium-rich silkworm pupae food (prepared dishes) as a high-end selenium-rich food in the future. More than 1,000 tons of silkworm pupae in the county every year will be used in high-value applications. At the same time, in accordance with the interest linkage mechanism of “leading enterprises + cooperatives + farmers”, farmers are ordered to produce mulberry leaves and mulberries at a guaranteed minimum price, which has become an important channel for farmers to increase their income.
The third is scientific mulberry farming, developing mulberry bacteria and mulberry poultry to increase income. Shiquan County makes full use of 76,000 acres of mulberry gardens, and uses the branches cut from mulberry trees every winter and spring to develop selenium-rich mulberry edible fungi, cultivate Shiquan Raofeng Sanhe Ecological Agriculture Technology Co., Ltd., a leading mulberry edible fungus enterprise, and explore Establishing a development model of “enterprise seed production, centralized bag making, household cultivation, and product recycling”, the county’s annual bag cultivation of mulberry edible fungi has stabilized at 10 million bags. It is estimated that the income of fungus farmers this year will reach 100 million yuan, and “rich in selenium” Brand “mulberry branch edible fungi” has become one of the “six major” leading products in Shiquan’s sericulture industry. At the same time, we will make full use of the ecological factors and environmental conditions of grass and insects under the mulberry garden to steadily develop 1 million chickens in the mulberry garden. The free-range chickens in the mulberry garden are ecologically rich in selenium and sell well in the market. It is expected that farmers will increase their income by about 100 million yuan this year. The large-scale and intensive development of the three-dimensional planting and breeding industry in mulberry gardens has not only become an important way for farmers to increase their income and become rich, but has also become another characteristic “highlight” selenium-rich industry in the extension of the sericulture industry in Shiquan County. </p
