Vermin Compost Program

Vermicomposting

Vermicomposting is a natural process where earthworms convert organic waste into nutrient-rich humus-like material. Studies worldwide have shown that vermicompost contains a higher nutrient profile compared to traditional compost.

It improves soil fertility in multiple ways:

• Physical benefits – better aeration, porosity, bulk density, and water retention.
• Chemical benefits – improved pH balance, electrical conductivity, and organic matter content.
• Biological benefits – supports healthier soil and enhances crop yield.
