清代民国时期南丝绸之路上宜宾的蚕丝业

Yibin's Silk Industry on South Silk Road During Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China

南丝绸之路上的宜宾具有栽桑养蚕的良好自然条件,蚕丝业是清代叙州府长期以来传统性的一项重要产业。清代民国时期宜宾是四川重要的生丝原产地之一,是南丝路上生丝和丝制品重要的购销集散中心。但至清末,自然经济状态下的宜宾蚕丝业远远落后于近代丝绸工业化生产的需要。为了适应南丝路上国际贸易的要求,民国时期宜宾以筠连为中心进行了蚕桑改良;云南商帮进入宜宾开展丝茶贸易,投资发展蚕丝业,也为宜宾蚕丝业注入了活力。清代民国时期宜宾蚕丝业为川滇经济的发展和古南丝路的复兴做出了贡献。

The natural conditions for sericulture is good for Yibin city on the south Silk Road. The silk industry was traditional and important to Xuzhoufu in Qing dynasty. Yibin had been the origin of raw silk in Sichuan and distribution center of raw silk and silk products on south Silk Road during Qing dynasty and the Republic of China. In late Qing dynasty, the spontaneous silk industry of Yibin lagged behind the modem production needs. In order to adapt to international trade needs, silk industry was reformed mainly at Junlian county of Yibin in the Public of China. Business groups of Yunnan revived the silk industry in Yibin by tea and silk trades and investments. The silk industry of Yibin contributed a lot to economic development in Sichuan and Yunnan and to rejuvenation of ancient south Silk Road during Qing dynasty and the Republic of China.
