Abstract

Climate change is likely to pose problems to agriculture and its related industries in the future, which could result in both global and local development. The sericulture sector is impacted by climate change in a number of ways. Rising annual mean temperature, irregular rainfall, humidity, lack of management practices, accumulation of anthropogenic greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and lack of management practices will lead to reduced production of raw silk, mulberry leaf yield, silk content, breakage in silk thread during reeling or spinning, water stress, drought, risk of soil acidification and salinization, decomposition of organic matter, Nitrogen fixation, and mineralization of N, P, and S and unpredictable monsoon. The impact of global warming on silkworms is more concerned as they participate in several biotic interactions that are critical to the ecological functioning of our country and significantly boost its GDP.
