Vermi Compost

As the compost passes through the body of the worms, it gets enriched with bacteria and microbes, which in turn makes it rich in humus and nutrients. It also helps plants to become more disease resistant and repel pests.

A great alternative for synthetic fertilizer, vermicompost acts as an organic fertilizer in soil-enriched vegetable potting mixes. What makes vermicompost a finer option is its ability to improve soil structure and increase its water holding capacity.

Since the hormones present in the earthworm compost can help plants to grow, so it plays a crucial role in producing an improved crop yield. This kind of natural support for the plants is not available with chemical fertilizers. Vermicompost is also known to improve the health of the roots of the plant.

Vermicompost release nutrition in a timely manner by providing the soil with a long-term nutrition exposure which promotes plant health and its longevity. In all, vermicompost not only makes up for what one’s yield may lose with exposure to chemical fertilizers but also helps to produce a better, healthier, organic and safe to consume the crop.

In addition, vermicompost improves soil aeration, allowing air to circulate through the soil which in turn keeps the soil mixture rich and alive in nutrients. It also enriches the soil with microorganisms adding enzymes such as phosphate and cellulose. With the addition of vermicompost, the microbial activity in soil increases by 10 to 20 times. Once the soil is enriched by micro-organism by way of vermicomposting, it adds plant hormones such as auxins and gibberellic acid which helps in growing healthy plants and yield.
