Dominance of chemical agriculture from last few decades has deteriorated the soil health and created problem of disposal of agricultural waste in rural areas. It is important to maintain environmental and agricultural sustainability without reducing productivity. Vermiculture technology has been considered as a sound and viable option to regenerate the soil health through recycling the agricult...

Material and methods: A new module making use of newer methods and techniques was designed and implemented. Solid waste was collected in two segregated forms viz. biodegradable and non biodegradable at the household level and was transported in separate containers to the segregation site. Biodegradable waste was introduced into vermiculture ponds and non biodegradable waste was segregated into ...

The paper presents a data analysis of the international scientific community on issues vermicultivation for last 75 years. authors considered terminology, biochemical contents earthworms’ tissues, production technology; distinguished 4 stages, 8 methods and biological aspects their safety. covers economic characteristics. results practical use dry paste vermiproducts have been summarized: feed ...

vermiculture is the culture of earthworms. the goal is to continually increase the number of worms in order to obtain a sustainable harvest. the worms are either used to expand a vermicomposting operation or sold to customers who use them for the same or other purposes. vermicomposting is the process by which worms are used to convert organic materials (usually wastes) into a humus-like materia...

Significant accumulations of poultry droppings near large enterprises are a problem both in Ukraine and abroad. An urgent issue is the search for rational methods disposal these wastes with involvement natural, ecologically safe such as composting use microorganisms vermiculture. The during fermentation broiler chicken litter (in form sawdust non-coniferous trees) leads to reduction time prepar...

The efficiency of biocomposting bottom silt deposits was evaluated in laboratory conditions. process is reproduced taking into account the main technological parameters and using lowland peat, microbial concentrate vermiculture as basic components. composition includes strains genera Bacillus spp., Clostridium Pseudomonas causing biosolubilization a complex organomineral substrate - sediments. ...
