Traditional silkworm farming in Quang Nam

Mulberry cultivation, silkworm raising, silk reeling and silk weaving have long been among the most famous traditional occupations of Duy Xuyen land in Quang Nam province.

Let's learn about this traditional profession through the Album Traditional silkworm farming in Quang Nam, by author Nguyen Nhat Tu , sent to the Photo and Video Contest "Happy Vietnam", organized by the Ministry of Information and Communications .

Growing up in a family with a tradition of silk weaving and silk reeling, witnessing the ups and downs of the craft village, Mr. Nguyen Nhat Tuan (Duy Trinh commune, Duy Xuyen) strives to revive the trade of silkworm farming, making silkworm wine, and expanding the model among the people to create an image of green mulberry fields on the riverbank.

It can be said that currently, the profession of growing mulberry, raising silkworms, and weaving silk in Quang Nam has almost disappeared, only scattered in Duy Xuyen, Dien Ban, and Dai Loc.

Although this traditional craft is facing many challenges today, its heritage still leaves a strong mark on the lives of the people of this land.
