Sericulture is a Home Industry.In a programme of rural rcostruction.the problem of suitable home industry finds a prominent place.Many of the cottage and village industries in India.have declined.having succumbed mainly to large scale industrial organisations.But sericulture,as a cottage industry,has right through withstood the competition of any such organisation.It is because ,it has always been a poor man's industrt.alied to the main profession of agriculture.It is in fact,best followed with success where wages are low.holdings small and the agriculturist has enough time between one crop and another.Sericulture,as a home industry wherever it can be taken up,has few equals.It has all the advantages of hand spinning of cotton but is less exacting and more profitable.This industry.has therefore.come as a boon to Kollegal.where dry cultivation is the rule.the ryot is poor and has time to spare between crops.
