It is expected to distribute the seeds on such amount that will be50 percent more than the previous year," Morteza Rezaei said.
"With warm welcome of farmers to silkworm seed production, the number of provinces that are engaged in silkworm rearing activities has increased from 23 provinces to 27 ones," Rezaei added.
"The distribution of silkworm seeds in the past year has been estimated to be25,200 culture boxes; there is a hope that with the continuation of the distribution processes and the production of silk cocoons, the cocoa production will be increased to1400 tons in 2019. With respect to the increase in the amount of production, the country's silk industry will rely on domestic production as well," he said.
