Objective:Investigating the microbes and interactions of the beneficial symbiotic relationships between the components of the system ecology in the food chains and life cycles is one of the modern sustainable agriculture topics. In this regard, to evaluate the effects of bacteria and vermicompost on morphological characteristics and yield of soybean an experiment was conducted as split plot in...

the use of vermicompost and fall fertilization in soilless culture on strawberry cv. camarosa quality characteristics was evaluated in a factorial based on completely randomized design pot experiment with 5 replicates. experimental treatments were four chemical fertilization timings (no fertilizer, using fertilizer at fall, spring, fall + spring) and three levels of vermicompost (10, 20 and 40%...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine the potential of produced compost from the sludge of wastewater treatment plant using earthworms and compare it with the vermicompost produced from household solid waste. METHODS In the current study, three treatments with the same conditions in terms of organic wastes type were prepared to produce vermicompost from household solid waste and s...

Experiments were conducted to remove heavy metals (Cr, Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn) from urban sewage sludge (SS) amended with spent mushroom compost (SMC) using worms, Lumbricus rubellus, for 105 days, after 21 days of pre-composting. Five combinations of SS/SMC treatments were prepared in triplicate along with a control for each treatment in microcosms. Analysis of the earthworms' multiplication and gr...

The purpose in this research was to study the effects of Vermicompost and poultry manure on yield and yield components of the medicinal plant coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) in the Shahr-e- Ghods region. A factorial experiment using the randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in the Islamic Azad University of Shahr-e- Ghods. The first factor was three levels of ...
