ಕೊಪ್ಪಳ: ಲಕ್ಷಗಟ್ಟಲೆ ಆದಾಯ ನೀಡುವ ರೇಷ್ಮೆ ಕೃಷಿ |Sericulture: A Profitable Monthly Income Crop for Farmers

Sericulture has emerged as a reliable and profitable agricultural practice that offers farmers steady monthly income with comparatively low labor and manageable investment. With access to loans and government guidance, silk farming has become a golden opportunity for farmers seeking sustainable livelihoods. India ranks second in global silk production after China and, along with China, contributes nearly 90% of the world’s silk. Karnataka leads the country in silk production, with the Ramanagara silk market being one of the most renowned. Indian silk is valued globally for its superior quality and stable market demand. In Koppal district’s Kushtagi taluk, farmers from K. Bodoor village—Sharanappa Hanumappa Kodagali and Muttappa Takallaki—have become model farmers through systematic sericulture practices. Cultivating silk on two acres with drip irrigation, organic manure, and scientific silkworm rearing methods, they earn consistent profits while maintaining high hygiene standards in rearing units. By planning staggered plantations and maintaining year-round cocoon production, these farmers harvest 2–3 quintals per cycle and sell directly at the Ramanagara market, ensuring good returns. Their success highlights sericulture as a safer and more dependable option compared to many other crops. #sericulture #silkfarming #karnatakafarmers #monthlyincome #agriculturesuccess #ModelFarmers #indiansilk #RamanagaraMarket #sustainablefarming #udayavani ______________________________________________________________________________ "Get Your Daily Dose of News, Entertainment, and Infotainment - All in One Place!"
