Worms for Composting (Vermicomposting) - Summary
Worms for Composting (Vermicomposting) - Summary
Worms
can convert organic and agricultural wastes into safe soil amendments
or ingredients for potting soil mixes. These "castings," are
stable, yet biologically active, and very available to plants.
The market for this valuable material, however, is not yet strongly
developed. Systems can be designed to produce either the castings
or the worms themselves as the commercial product.
