Sericulture also known as silk farming where the silkworm arereared to produce silk. There are varities of silk prouduced all over the world. This article throws an insight into the cultivation of silkworm and creation of the beautifully refined silk. Many cottage and small scale textile industries, agriculture outputs includings, engage in such farm- based labour intensive commercial economic activity providing employment to the rural farmers and attracts profit seeking entre preneurs as it requires low investment with relatively higher returns and the production of high quality textiles. An attempt has been made to formulate a strategic model of sericulture in Ambikapur, District – Surguja, Chhatisgarh State. We report results of the comparative studies relating to the silk production and productity at Ambikapur, District – Surguja from the silkworm species Antheraea mylitta and Bombyx mori.
