The presence of fertile climates in certain regions created favorable conditions for the development of this craft, with vast mulberry plantations supporting its growth. In particular, the districts of Sheki, Gakh, Zagatala, and Fuzuli have been known for widespread sericulture since ancient times. Sheki\u2019s world-famous \u201cSheki silk\u201d has long stood out for its quality and durability. The cocoons grown and the raw silk produced here have been used both in local production and exported to foreign markets.<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>The development of sericulture has impacted not only the economy but also the cultural life of the people. Traditional garments, carpets, and various decorative items made from silk fabrics reflect refined taste and a rich tradition of craftsmanship. Since each stage of silkworm breeding requires special care and labor, this field was considered one of the most demanding areas of agriculture.
