IIMB Management Review

Karnataka ranks first among the states producing raw sllk in India. Entire silk production in Karnataka is of mulberry silk, a produce of the insect Bombyx mori, accounting for about 83 per cent of the country’s mulberry silk production.

The cocoon rearing was earlier confined to the districts of Mysore, Mandya, Bangalore, Kolar and Tumkur - referred to as old areas. Now it has spread to other districts providing sustenance to about 5.31 lakh families’.
