Leshi Silk

　　Leshi silk is very famous. Leshi County has a long history of mulberry cultivation and silkworm breeding, and is known as the “Mulberry Capital of Leshi.” After decades of hard and unremitting efforts by several generations, it is now one of the 33 high-quality cocoon production bases in Sichuan Province. The sericulture and silk industry has become a major pillar of the county’s economy. Mulberry, silkworms, seeds, cocoons, silk, and the integrated production, supply, sales, agriculture, industry, and trade systems have formed a relatively complete industrial framework.
