What do silk farmers do with cocoons not needed for breeding purposes
A silk farmer processes the excess cocoons not needed for breeding by boiling them to extract silk fibers. This process, called sericulture, involves carefully unwinding the silk threads from the cocoons, which can then be spun into silk fabric. The remaining waste from the cocoons can be used as fertilizer or animal feed, ensuring minimal waste in the production cycle.

Silk is made from the cocoons of silkworms. It takes 5500 cocoons to make just 2.2 lbs., or 1 kilogram, of silk.
It takes about 2,000 to 3,000 cocoons to produce 1 kg of raw silk. Each cocoon is made up of a single continuous thread of silk spun by the silkworm larvae.
