    VERMICOMPOSTING

    I. What is VERMICOMPOSTING?

     It is also called worm composting.


     This is a process that relies on earthworms and microorganisms to help
    stabilize active organic materials and convert them to a valuable soil
    amendment and source of plant nutrients.
     It is a simple technology for converting biodegradable waste into organic
    manure with the help of earthworms. Earthworms are valued by farmers
    because, in addition to aerating the soil, they digest organic matter and
    produce castings that are a valuable source of humus.
     The use of earthworms to convert organic waste into fertilizer.
     It turns kitchen scraps and other green waste into a rich, dark soil that
    smells like earth and feels like magic. Made of almost pure worm castings,
    it’s a sort of super compost. Not only is it rich in nutrients but it’s also
    loaded with the microorganisms that create and maintain healthy soil.
    II. How the process works?
    III. Examples of
    VERMICOMPOSTING
    This is an
    example of

    videos.
    IV. Why is vermicomposting
    important?
     Vermicomposting is an efficient method of
    waste treatment with benefits that include a
    high rate of waste reduction, less space
    required than other technologies for waste
    processing, and the unique ability to
    eradicate contaminants from soils and
    improve nutrient content. Source: (Edwards
    et al., 2011; Hanc & Chadimova, 2014)
    V. What are the beneficial effects of
    Vermicomposting?

     Vermicompost is a nutrient-rich fertilizer as well as a


    soil conditioner. It has been shown to increase plant
    growth and yield as well as suppressing key pests
    and diseases of horticultural plants in the
    greenhouse and in field soils
     Vermicompost has a plethora of benefits, most
    importantly as follows: (1) it acts as biofertilizers,
    restores soil nutrients, stabilizes soil, and
    enhances soil fertility at a long-term period; (2) it
    attends to social issues and recycles waste; and (3)
    it is shown to be a profitable enterprise as a circular
    economy..
    VI. Who are the beneficiaries of
    Vermicomposting?
     The
    beneficiaries of vermicomposting are
    mostly plants.
     Farmers are also one of the beneficiaries
    of vermicomposting their plants grow
    faster and healthier.
