Sericulture is the cultivation of silkworms for the production of silk. The most widely practiced form of sericulture, known as mulberry sericulture, relies entirely on the Mulberry plant (Morus spp.). The silkworm species Bombyx mori, responsible for producing the majority of commercial silk, feeds exclusively on mulberry leaves. The quality and abundance of mulberry leaves are crucial factors directly influencing the health of the silkworms and, consequently, the yield and quality of the silk cocoons. While other plants like Castor, Oak, and Som are food sources for different, less common types of silkworms (Eri, Tasar, and Muga silk, respectively), Mulberry is the key plant for the predominant silk industry.
