BUSINESS ACTIVITIES

Production & Supply of P1 seed

Production & Supply of P1 seed

  • Right now, supply of basic silkworm seed (from P4 to P1) required for production of commercial silkworm seed is under the control of Government.
  • P1 seed production capacity available with Government may not be enough keeping in view the country’s raw silk production target of 50,000 MT by 2030.
  • This production target would require supply of around 50 cr DFLs of commercial silkworm seed, which would necessitate enhancing production capacity at P1 stages.
  • The company can explore the possibility of getting in to silkworm seed production at P1 level, either alone or in association with Government.
Supply of Seri Equipment & Chemicals

Supply of Seri Equipment & Chemicals

  • Availability of manpower being an issue, there is increased thrust on mechanization in sericulture.
  • There is rampant use of substandard chemicals in sericulture affecting productivity and environment.
  • Here lies a business. opportunity to get in to supply of equipment (both indigenous and imported) for mechanization and supply of standard and recommended chemicals to sericulture farmers.
  • Around 3 lakh farmers involved in sericulture can be considered as target group.
  • Setting up units for production of standard chemicals following norms prescribed by R&D Institutes can also be considered as a business option.
