Abstract
India is primarily an agricultural country, with the majority of its
population living in rural areas.Rural residents' primary line of work is
agriculture. The monsoon season is essential to most agricultural land. There
is uncertainty about agricultural production because most years have an
extended dry period that ends with two rainy seasons. The fundamental issue
with agriculture these days is its economic viability. Farmers will continue
farming in the future if they earn a steady and predictable income from it.It
is necessary to consider other options that provide farmers with a particular
amount of revenue. Farmers have many of chances in the numerous agro-allied
sectors.Farmers have started producing dairy, poultry, Fish culture, goats, and
sheep in order to continue making money. Sericulture is another profitable
industry with a lot of promise.In this context, a number of farmers in the
Maharashtra began cultivating sericulture, which results in the production of cocoons.
Global conditions today plainly show that the Indian silk industry has a
plethora of prospects.One of the industries with the highest labor intensity is
sericulture, which combines industrial and agricultural processes. Given this
context, the current study focuses on the growth of sericulture farming and its
profitability in different Nanded district villages.This study makes use of
both primary and secondary data. Data pertaining to 2022–2023 was gathered in
October of 2023.The core data was gathered by surveying 24 sericulture farmers
in the villages of Nanded district.Written reports from the Nanded district
sericulture office have been used to gather secondary data. Approximately
eighty percent of sericulture producers are benefiting, according to the sample
survey.
