What is Vermicompost?

Converting organic waste into fertilizers. Vermi composting is chiefly composting with worms. In nature, all organic matter eventually decomposes in Vermicomposting, worms are used with the decomposed matter and the Organic material will pass through the earthworm gut resulting in warm castings. Vermi Compost, enriches soil in most natural organic manner and also increases the quality, fertility and mineral content of soil. Unlike chemical micro organisms, the organic fertilizer is completely harmless and provide rich organic soil that is best for plants.

Hence Vermicomposting involves harnessing of earth worm for cleaning up the environment. In the process, earthworms and microbes work together and produce Vermicompost. It contains more than 8 kinds of useful microbial bacterium groups (over 600 million per gram) So it can supply all nutrition elements needed by the variety of plants u. Use of Bio Organic fertilizer will reduce the use of harmful chemical fertilizers, give higher yield and improve soil fertility.



Benefits of Vermicompost

  1. Promotes faster growth of plants, increases crop yield.
  2. Produces crops with a better taste, and lasting quality, without toxic residues.
  3. Earthworms produce no toxins and carry no diseases.
  4. Earthworms help neutralize soil acidity and reduce waste volume by up to 50%.
  5. Increases crop yield with less irrigation.
  6. Improves groundwater recharge and reduces depletion of groundwater.
  7. Reduces soil salinization and soil erosion.
  8. Lessens pollution, as chemicals are not used.
  9. Increases export of agricultural product with lower pesticide residues.
  10. Lessens wasteland formation.
  11. Lowers risk of crop loss due to pest attack.
  12. Vermicomposting waste produces no pollution or unusable residue.
