This study determined feedstock effects on earthworm populations and the quality of resulting vermicomposts
produced from different types of feedstocks using different vermicomposting durations. Feedstock
combinations (Kitchen Paper Waste (KPW), Kitchen Yard Waste (KYW), Cattle Manure Yard Waste
(CMY)), three durations of vermicomposting (45, 68 or 90 days), and two seed germination methods
(with two concentrations of vermicompost) for radish, marigold and upland cress, served as the independent
variables
