STUDY ON BIODEGRADABILITY OF VEGETABLE AND FLOWER WASTES BY VERMICOMPOSTING By G. Manjula and P.N. Magudeswaran |
Abstract An experimental study was conducted to determine the efficiency of vermicomposting process of various types of organic wastes such as vegetable, fruit and flower wastes. Various characteristics like pH, electrical conductivity, moisture content, total solids, volatile solids and ash content were monitored continuously to ascertain the stability of the compost. The vermicomposting process for flower waste and fruit-vegetable waste mixture was compared. Both the processes were found to be effective with significant nutrient enrichment. |
