A simple, and effective step towards organic farming.
The method of application for Agri Vermicompost is simple. The compost is to be applied only when there is sufficient moisture in the soil, i.e., soil should not be too dry or too wet. It should be thoroughly mixed with soil for best results. Mulching after application, with leaf litter or soil is a must. Unlike artificial or chemical fertilizers, there is no limitation for organic manure use.
