Vermiculture is a biological method for processing organic waste using earthworms. It is based on the capacity of earthworms to use as feed organic waste from various sources such as crop residues remaining after deforestation, vegetable debris from greenhouses, but also from the field, the waste left after cleaning the gardens and parks, damaged fruits and vegetables. All of them are converted into organic fertilizer with a high content of macro-elements, micro-elements and humus. Farmers of the world must move towards more productive and sustainable systems to enhance the need of food for a growing population and to meet the climate change, said Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations [FAO). Other authors stipulates that conventional industrialized agriculture affects the appearance of soil, water, land, biodiversity and the services provided by an intact ecosystem. One way of solving this problem is Vermiculture, which transforms very well organic waste into humus and humus liquid extract. In the process of obtaining vermicompost, the most suitable earthworm species are those with a fast rate of breeding and development and not very demanding regarding the nutritional conditions. From what is known until now, the most suitable species Eisenia foetida [striped worm manure) and Lumbricus rubellus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
