Abstract
The study investigates the impact of a new complex preparation on the viability, disease incidence, and cocoon productivity of the mulberry silkworm (Bombyx mori L.) under the conditions of the Kashkadarya region. The preparation, composed of silver nitrate (AgNO₃), potassium iodide (KI), ascorbic acid, and selenium (Se), was applied at different concentrations. The results showed that the 0.05% solution (Variant 1) was the most effective: larval viability was high, disease incidence was low, and both cocoon weight and silk ratio significantly improved compared to the control. At higher concentrations (0.15%), disease incidence increased, although the silk content in the cocoons was also higher. Overall, the complex preparation proved to be an effective means of improving silkworm health and cocoon quality.
