Vermiculture and Vermicomposting

Recommendations

Info

CONCLUSIONS The Vermiculture and Vermicomposting activity is such a worthwhile and exciting venture. We have learned a lot specifically in the methodologies, benefits and significance of this activity. After almost three months, project delivery and execution, we can therefore conclude that: 1. Vermiculture is a substantial way of reducing wastes, producing fertilizers and maintaining the balance of the ecological environment; 2. Vermicomposting can produce high-quality fertilizers which are better compared to other commercial fertilizers in the market; 3. Vermiculture converts farm wastes into organic fertilizer, making it an environment-friendly technology; 4. Vermiculture increases crop yield and lessens dependence on chemical fertilizers thus mitigating climate change; 5. Vermiculture can be made into a livelihood program and become a source of extra income through selling the vermicast and also the vermi worms; 6. Taking worms out of their natural environment and placing them in the vermi beds creates a human responsibility. They are living creatures with their own unique needs, so it is important to create and maintain a healthy habitat for them to do their work. If you supply the right ingredients and care, your worms will thrive and make compost for you. 14
