QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF SILKWORM SEED LOT AT SILKWORM BREEDING ENTERPRISES

Abstract

The transition of our country's economy to market relations demands an improvement in the quality of agricultural products and elevating them to a level where they can compete in the global market. In this regard, an important task for the workers of the sericulture sector is to prepare high-quality silkworms that meet world standards. To achieve this, it is necessary to strictly follow the sericulture agrotechnics to obtain silkworms with clean cocoons that are well-formed, long, slender, and free from defects. Unfortunately, it is known that a significant number of defective silkworms are present even in purebred silkworm groups and are delivered to silkworm reception points.
