It is not known how or why the people of Huang He Valley raised silkworms. The silkworms were most likely raised for their silk like in the rest of China. Silk was an extremely valuable product often only legally worn by the rulers of China when not exported.

Who keeps silkworms?

Silkworms are now raised commercially in Europe and the Northern and Southern Americas. They are from North China, North India, Japan, Taiwan, and Korea orginally. They are the only insect to be domesticated and completely raised by hand. They feed on Mulberry trees, so the farms raising the worms are usually near fields of Mulberry Trees. Some are used for educational reasons and taken to schools and other teaching facilities. The main reason to raise silkworms is for the silk they produce, which is between 1,000 and 3,000 feet long, in one single length. Even though there are no silkworms in the wild now, they are not considered to be threatened, endangered.


How many different types of silkworms are there What is the difference between the white and the striped silkworms?

I have always thought that the striped silkworms which feed on Mulberry leaves are female. There are other types of Silkworms that dont feed on Mulberry. There are 4 silkworms that I have located in my enquiries are: (this is to the best of my knowledge and may not be entirely correct) 1. Bombyx mori L. feeds on Mulbery. It is the more common one that children raise. 2. Antheraea mylitta (Tasar or Tussah silkworm) feeds on Arjun and Asan and the Antheraea proyeli J (Oak Tassar) feeds on Oak 3. Philosamia ricini (Endi, Errandi or Eri Silkworm) feeds on Castor leaves 4. Antheraea assamensis (Muga Silkworm) feeds on the aromatic leaves of the Som and Soalu plants
