The tremendous increase in population, urbanization, industrialization and agricultural production results in accumulation quantities of solid wastes. This has created serious problem in the environment. In order to dispose this waste safely it should be converted effectively. This is achieved by bio-composting and vermicomposting of farm, urban and agro-industrial waste. It is being increasing realized that composting is an environment friendly process, convert wide variety of wastes into valuable agricultural inputs.

The main purpose of this project is to: (i) determine the level of vermicomposting contribution to productivity in agriculture and farming in rural areas, (ii) demonstrate multiple benefits of vermitechnology; low-cost production of biofertilizer, environmental management of solid wastes and agricultural residues, enhanced soil productivity, tastier quality food. (İİİ) develop chemical-free vermicomposting production techniques for farmers.
