Have you heard about vermicompost?
I think if you are an agriculturist and am active environment activist; you must have had heard about it. Have you received any training on vermicomposting? If yes, are you practicing it? Vermicompost is the product of the decomposition process using various species of worms, usually red wigglers, white worms, and other earthworms, to create a mixture of decomposing vegetable or food waste, bedding materials, and vermicast. Vermicast is the end-product of the breakdown of organic matter by earthworms. We have also received a method demonstration from team vermiponics on vermicomposting and we are practicing it. Trust me, it is very Eco friendly and useful to plants and completely organic so benefits human as well. We utilized neem and banana stem as feed of earthworm cutting them into small pieces. There are some pictures of it's procedure as well. Why is vermicomposting so important today? This method of recycling converts organic materials that have traditionally been viewed as waste into a valuable soil amendment for plants and crops. When vermicompost is added to soil, it boosts the nutrients available to plants and enhances soil structure and drainage. Fungi in the castings form symbiotic relationships to transport water and nutrients to the roots. They can also hold water in the soil and help with water management. Vermicompost is good for plants because the worms are eating nutrient-rich fruit and vegetable scraps and turning them into nutrient-rich compost. That's why, farmers are advised to practice and adopt vermicomposting. Reference https://composting.ces.ncsu.edu/vermicomposting-2/ |

Hello sushmita, Being from Non- Agriculturist background, I am very aware of the immense benefits of Vermicomposting but I was little unaware of using neem leaf as earthworm food. So thank you very much for the information. :) :)
