Guangxi is experiencing continuous high temperatures in recent days and the possibility of outbreak of silkworm disease has greatly increased. Some cocoon production areas have reported that, autumn cocoon output may reduce sharply, this year.

New cocoon in Zhejiang area is poor in quality; therefore, market price will be affected by any sign of disturbance or trouble.
