In order to promote organic farming, Sahyog Sansthan is encouraging its members to farm units of vermiculture. Vermiculture is the management of worms. It defines the thrilling potential for waste reduction, fertilizer production, as well as an assortment of possible uses for the future. Vermiculture enhances the growth of plants that provide food along with producing prosperous and financially rewarding fertilizer.
The worms are accountable for a variety of elements including turning common soil into superior quality. Worms facilitate the amount of air and water that travels into soil. They break down organic matter and when they eat, they leave behind castings that are an exceptionally valuable type of fertilizer.
In the past three months, Sahyog Sansthan has supported the farming of 4 units of vermiculture. Some 10 farmers in Ghodaghati village have shown interest to start new units. Sahyog plans to support them in the upcoming month.
