lumbricus cultivation<br />

Urbanization and the growing<br />

population waste soils in huge<br />

amounts. As 2015 is the international<br />

year of soils people have<br />

started to recognize the ongoing<br />

loss.<br />

Millions of microbes and tiny<br />

animals which have their living<br />

environment under the ground<br />

disappear. The earthworm (lumbricus)<br />

as one of these creatures<br />

produce soil in the way of<br />

its lifecycle. Called as indicators<br />

of the ground they are<br />

just there if the soils are in<br />

adequate quality.<br />

To cultivate the poor soils with<br />

earthworms will be the main aim.<br />

A underground solid out of precious<br />

soils mixed with chalk<br />

will be the base including a<br />

birth chamber with earthworm‘s<br />

cocoons. With natural forces of<br />

rain water and sun the animals<br />

will be guided in the worse soil<br />

environment. A interface for<br />

humans will be given on top of<br />

the ground to observe, feed and<br />

interact with the earthworms.<br />
