Abstract

This article studies the economics of a commercial grainage, where silkworm seeds are produced. The main objective of the grainage is to produce high quality disease-free layings. The study slightly alters the seed cocoon ratios from the normal of 2:1, multivoltine seed cocoon: bivoltine seed cocoon, and studies the economic effects of the seeds produced.
