Potential of Eisenia Fetida and Eudrilus Eugenie in composting of Saw mill waste.

Abstract

This study investigates the efficiency of vermicomposting sawmill waste using two species of earthworms, Eisenia Fetida and Eudrilus Eugenie. Two boxes of saw mill (2kg mixture /box) were prepared .These sets were inoculated with 10 no of earthworms. Before vermicomposting process parameters like N, P, K, pH, EC, Organic carbon, organic matter, were calculated .After 60 days vermicomposting is completed and same parameters were analyzed.  The results indicate significant improvements in nutrient content and organic matter decomposition, with Eudrilus Eugenie showing superior performance in several aspects.
