AN ECOFRIENDLY
ORGANIC
FERTILIZER
Conversion processes:
Accelerated conversion of organic waste matter by
micro-organisms (bacteria, fungi) and by
compost worms
The worms coat the organic material with their
mucous excretions which contain micro-organisms
(bacteria, fungi etc.)
microbial pre-decomposition
The worms convert the pre-fermented composting
material into worm humus, along with mineral
substances
Worm humus is high in micro-organisms, enzymes
and nutrients.
Ideal supplier of nutrients bonded in clay-humus
complexes, good plant availability
Cold composting (at temperatures below 50C)
