Production of Vermicompost from Domestic Waste with Cow Dung by using Perionyx Excavatus

Vermicomposting is one of the eco friendly method to composting the domestic waste materials, vermicomposting is a process which the earthworms convert the organic waste into manure rich in high nutritional content. Perionyx excavatus sps are most commonly used in composting process. Vermicomposting are easily handled and supply nutrients and growth hormone. Nutrients content of vermicomposting in higher than traditional compost. Perionyx excavatus is the potential epigeics earthworm species for breaking down and processing organic waste is well known. Perionyx excavatus is a commercially produced earthworm. It is a beautiful worm with an iridescent blue or violet sheen for vermiculture and vermicomposting process. It is a very small worm poorly suited as fishing Bait, but has an impressive growth and rate far in excess of the other species grown in indoor culture. This tropical worm with a very poor tolerance of low temperature and fluctuations in the environment Perionyx excavatus is often referred to as the traveler for its tendency often to leave the indoor culture the maturation period of the worms is approximately 30 55 days under ideal conditions.
