Abstract:

The vermicomposting process carried out by earthworms transforms biodegradable waste into nutrient-rich excrement, enhancing its nutritional content. In Vermicomposting, nutrients are release and transformed into soluble, readily accessible forms, supplying essential elements like available nitrogen, soluble potassium, exchangeable calcium, and magnesium, phosphorus, trace minerals such as iron, molybdenum, zinc, and copper which plants can easily absorb (Orozco et al., 1996). Vermicomposting contains plant growth regulators and improves soil structure. It has been show to promote better plant growth compared to inorganic and extra bio-fertilizers. Incorporating inexpensive vermicompost into the soil enhances its structure, improving water retention and porosity (Edwards and Burrows, 1988). In Study at D.S.M. College, Jintur dist. Parbhani, By using garden waste analysis was done on micronutrient N, P, K, CaCO3 organic carbon. Waste converted into black gold.
