| Abstract: | In the present study, vermicompost samples were tested for chemical constituents. Effect of temperature and density of cocoons on the production of vermicompost was also studied. Samples collected from vermicompost units installed in the laboratory as well as in the field provided an opportunity to analyze quality assessment of the vermicompost and introduction of a three-pit system of vermicomposting. |
