Abstract Vermicomposting the conversion of organic waste into vermicompost, is mediated by thecombined action of earthworms and microorganisms. This interesting and attractive alternative to composting turns organic waste into a substrate that can be used as a soil amendment and as a growing medium for use in horticulture. Soil not required in vermicomposting as the organic matter acts as both the substrate the food, and therefore only epigeic earthworms can be used in the process. Vermicompost is nutrient-rich casts generated by the earthworms that can be used as biofertilizers.
