It has been estimated that organic resources available in the country alone can produce not less than 20 million tones of plant nutrients (NPK).The disposal of ever increasing amounts of organic wastes is becoming a serious problem. The hygienic disposal of organic wastes by composting is an environmentally sound and economically viable technology resulting in the production of organic fertilizer which is a basic and valuable input in organic farming. In India, about 350 million tons of agricultural wastes are generated annually is in major portion. The biological treatment of these wastes appears to be most cost effective and carry a less negative environmental impact. In Many areas the traditional management practice of post harvest residues is the elimination by open air burning leads to release of green house gases and the production of particulate matter are obvious. Therefore as an alternative to burning of agricultural residue, the incorporation into the soil stands to reason, this has been widely accepted. However, these materials take a long time for decomposition under normal conditions; application of vermiculture technology for recycling of these organic residues gives valuable manure with in short period. Vermicomposting is an eco biotechnological process that transforms energy rich and complex organic substances into stabilized humus like product vermicompost; hence the research work is formulated to study the possibilities of adopting vermiculture technology for recycling of organic residues and its comparative evaluation with normal composting. From vermiculture, we get well decomposed worm casts, which can be used as manure for crops, vegetables, flowers, gardens, etc. In this process, earthworms also get multiplied and the excess worms can be converted into vermiprotein which can be utilized as feed for poultry, fish, etc. Vermi-wash can also be used as spray on crops.
