Vermiculture Kit

The ByoEarth Vermiculture Kit contains the essential materials to produce rich organic fertilizer via vermicomposting, a composting process that uses worms to digest organic waste. Each kit includes a box with vents and drainage, over 2,500 adult worms and an instructional manual.

With the Vermiculture Kit, anyone with access to organic waste (including discarded food, plants and manure) can start producing organic fertilizer within a matter of weeks. The Kit can enable agrarian entrepreneurs to sell organic vermicompost as an alternative to harmful chemical alternatives, while also empowering smallholder farmers to create a self-sustained supply of fertilizer.

Among other advantages over chemical fertilizers, organic vermicompost:

-Improves crop yields -Revitalizes depleted soil -Prevents further soil degradation -Reduces risks of over saturating crops with nutrients

ByoEarth is a social enterprise that creates and promotes vermiculture products for the environmentally sustainable development of agrarian communities across Guatemala.
