The first breeding in 2024 was completed.
Amami Sericulture raises silkworms on mulberry leaves and artificial feed (a mixture of mulberry leaf powder and other feed)
.
mulberry leaves are raised from spring to autumn when the mulberry leaves are vigorous, and
artificial feed is raised throughout the year to achieve
sericulture with no difference in the quality of cocoons.
In this case, the animals were reared on artificial feed.
Breeding has been stable year after year, and we would like to thank the National Institute of Agro-Environmental Sciences for their technical support.
