VarmiCompost 1 kg

VarmiCompost 1 kg (vermi-compost) 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. … Vermicomposting can also be applied for treatment of sewage.

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.

This is better than compost due to its higher nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content, and its ability to improve the soil structure, and to increase its water-holding capacity. Vermicompost is ideal organic manure for better growth and yield of many plants.

Phosphorus (P %) ranges 1.3% to 1.6% and maximum in Azadirachta indica vermicompost. Potassium (K %) ranges 0.8% to 15.8% and all four vermicompost has significantly higher K contents than the cow dung compost.

Young worms grow rapidly and are ready to reproduce in about one month. Depending on growing conditions, worms may take up to six months to attain full size. An actively growing worm bed will yield 4-5 pounds of worms per square foot of bed space per year.

This is considered a soil conditioner and is often used as a natural fertilizer in rough soils. Worms are considered nature’s recyclers, concentrating the important plant nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus and calcium into forms that are much more available to plants than those in the raw materials.
