Vermicompost (1.8 Kg)

This is the best quality vermi-compost which is made by decomposing organic waste (Approximately 10%) and cow dung (Approximately 90%) with use of earthworms. If we produce vermicompost by main use of cow dung, the vermi-compost will be very light weight and more nutritious. Moreover, this vermicompost will be helpful in providing aeration to roots. We use cow dung for producing vermicompost, hence there are lesser chances of worms, caterpillar, maggots and other harmful pest in soil. However, if we use dung of any other animal, there will be more possibility of worms in the soil. No chemical fertilisers and pesticides are available in this. High value of Nitrogen, Calcium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Magnesium and many more needful nutrients for long life better health of your garden plants is available in this compost. Moreover, various micro-organisms are also present in this compost. You may also observe some baby earthworms in this product. These earthworms will be highly useful for maintaining better health of your garden soil. But generally due to keeping in air sealed poly packs for longer duration, baby earthworms die.

            If you use this compost in your garden lawn, grass growth will be improved and there will be no requirement of giving urea or chemical fertilisers repeatedly.  This compost may have presence of 3-4 %  moisture. Because vermi-compost is already fully decomposed by long processing of earthworms, possibility of termite attacks is reduced. On contrary, if we use dung made natural compost (not produced by earthworms), possibility of termite and other pest attack is higher. We would also like to clarify that use of this vermicompost will not ensure fast growth like urea. It will ensure consistent growth for long term while ensuring nutritional requirements of plant for longer period.

How do we make our Vermi-Compost in a better way-

Though, we can produce Vermicompost by use of any bio degradable or decomposable material (e.g.- Waste of vegetable markets, leaves of trees etc.), but best quality of vermicompost is produced by cow dung only. While producing vermi-compost (in a period of 6-8 weeks), dung of any animal also decomposes in a natural way by producing some maggots/worms etc. But if we use cow dung, production of these unwanted worms is minimal. Consequently, eggs or larvae of harmful worms / insects do not get transferred in the soil by use of this vermi-compost. Moreover, if we are feeding our earthworms cow dung, they produce better quality of light weight vermi-compost. However, if we use any other bio-degradable material instead of cow dung, the produced vermi-compost will not be light weight.
