Question

describe sericulture in brief

Answer 1

the rearing and carrying of silk worm for obtaining silk is known as sericulture

Answer 2

“SILK” is a Natural Protein fibre.

Silk is produced by several insects, but generally only the silk of moth (Bombyx Mori) caterpillars has been used for textile manufacturing. The silk worm isn’t really a worm, but the caterpillar (larva) of a moth, Bombyx mori. The caterpillar spins a cocoon before turning into a moth and it is this cocoon that yields silk.
