Vermiculture and Vermicomposting

The lowly earthworm is an often disregarded creature, seen by others as nothing but dirt swellers that feed on refuse. But these dirt-dwellers play a very important ecological role - they prevent the world from becoming overrun with organic waste. Without worms hastening the decomposition process of organic refuse, every landfill will be rapidly filled up and contaminate surrounding lands and waterways. Also, without worms, organic waste will decompose very slowly and produce harmful greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change.

The book Vermiculture and Vermicomposting discusses the importance of worms in turning organic waste into high quality compost thus reducing the impact of household refuse in the environment and their importance in improving land. It also discusses what vermiculture is and how it is different from and related to vermicomposting; it provides information on what worm species are commonly used in both; what systems are used in the rearing of and composting with worms; how to care for worms and offer some important things to consider if delving into vermicomposting. This book is recommended for gardeners, farmers and anyone who is interested in learning a new way to supplement their income.
