2000
Biradar, A.P. | Sunitha, N.D. | Teggelli, R.G. (Regional Research Station, Bijapur (India)).
Investigations carried out to evaluate the suitability of crop residues for vermiculturing revealed that sunflower, safflower, sugarcane trash and pearl millet residues have performed superior over red gram stalk by recording maximum number of worms, biomass and vermicompost yield per 10x1x0.33 m size of the bed under laboratory conditions. However, under open field conditions sugarcane trash and sunflower residue proved superior and recorded maximum number of clitellate (10531 and 9464 respectively), non-clitellate worms (16040 and 15952 respectively), biomass and vermicompost yield (942 and 898 kg respectively) per 10x1x0.33 m size of the bed. Safflower residue remained least suitable followed by pearl millet residue under field conditions.
