It mainly includes Hangzhou (Prefecture), Jiaxing (Xing) and Lake (Prefecture) areas in Zhejiang Province and areas around Taihu Lake in Jiangsu Province. The climate here is mild, the frost-free period can reach 250 days, mulberry leaves can be harvested three times a year, and spring silkworms and autumn silkworms can be raised at least twice a year and up to four times, namely, spring silkworms, summer silkworms, autumn silkworms and late autumn silkworms.

Nanjing's brocade, Suzhou's embroidery, Hangzhou's cotton weaving and Huzhou's lake silk are all famous at home and abroad. \ x0d \ 2。 Sichuan Basin: Sichuan Basin is the second largest sericulture base in China, mainly distributed in Jialing River Basin and the middle and lower reaches of Fujiang River. Sericulture covers more than 50 counties in Sichuan Basin/Kloc-0, accounting for about 70% of the whole province. The climate in Sichuan Basin is warm and humid, with a frost-free period of more than 275 days. Mulberry trees can raise silkworms three or four times a year.

Mulberry orchards account for about 75% of the total area of mulberry orchards in Guangdong Province, and cocoon production accounts for about 90% of the total cocoon production in Guangdong Province. Shunde is the most famous county here, and the sericulture output accounts for about 1/2 of the total sericulture output in the province. The Pearl River Delta is located in the south of the subtropical zone, with a frost-free period of 350 days throughout the year. Mulberry leaves can be picked seven or eight times a year, and silkworm rearing can reach seven or nine times, which is far behind the other two silkworm bases. The silk weaving industry here is also very developed. Xiangyun yarn, vinyl yarn and Guangzhou Cantonese embroidery produced in Foshan are all famous.
