The silk industry is a sector focused on producing silk, a luxurious fabric made from the fibers of the silkworm. The process begins with the cultivation of mulberry trees, which provide food for the silkworms. Once the silkworms spin their cocoons, they are harvested, and the silk fibers are carefully extracted and processed. Historically, the silk road was a significant trade route that connected the East and West, facilitating the exchange of silk and other goods. Today, countries like China and India are major producers of silk, contributing to both local economies and global fashion markets.
