Detailed Solution

The rearing of the silkworm is called sericulture.
Sericulture is the process of breeding, cultivating, and managing silkworms in order to obtain pure raw silk. Sericulture provides gainful employment, economic development, and improved quality of life to people in rural areas, and thus plays a significant part in anti-poverty programmes and discourages rural people from migrating to cities in quest of work. Domestic silk moth caterpillars (also known as 'Bombyx mori') are sericulture's most often utilised silkworm species.
