Silkworm project works to revive species

Tata Steel Foundation’s Sukinda Ecorace Conservation Project is reviving a native silkworm species on the brink of extinction by planting 17,000 Arjun and Asan trees. This initiative, validated by IUCN India, integrates ecological restoration with community empowerment, benefiting over 200 households and restoring traditional livelihoods in sericulture.
