Vermicompost is a nutrient-rich, organic soil amendment produced by earthworms breaking down food waste, bedding materials, and other organic matter. The process of creating vermicompost is called vermicomposting, and the rearing of worms for this purpose is called vermiculture.
Here are some characteristics of vermicompost :
Nutrients
Vermicompost is a good source of nutrients for plants and soil, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. It also contains plant growth hormones, vitamins, and beneficial microorganisms.
Benefits
Vermicompost improves soil structure, aeration, and water holding capacity. It also prevents soil erosion and enriches soil biodiversity.
Ease of use
Vermicompost is free-flowing, easy to apply, handle, and store. It doesn't emit a bad flavor.
The process of vermicomposting involves :
Breeding earthworms. The red worm (Eisenia foetida) is ideal for vermicomposting because it's accustomed to a diet rich in organic matter.
Confining worms to bins. This makes it easier to feed them and harvest their compost.
Using a mix of cow dung, soil, and agricultural residues or predecomposed leaf-litter.
