Vermicomposting is a process in which earthworms are utilized to convert biodegradable organic waste into humus-like vermicast. Past work, mainly on vermicomposting of animal droppings, has shown that vermicompost is an excellent organic fertilizer and is also imbibed with pest-repellent properties. However, there is no clarity whether vermicomposts of organic wastes other than animal droppings are as plant-friendly as the manure-based vermicomposts are believed to be. It is also not clear as to whether the action of a vermicompost as a fertilizer depends on the species of plants being fertilized by it. This raises questions whether vermicomposts are beneficial (or harmful) at all levels of application or if there is a duality in their action which is a function of their rate of application. The present work is an attempt to seek answers to these questions. To that end, all hitherto published reports on the action of vermicomposts of different substrates on different species of plants have been assessed. The study reveals that, in general, vermicomposts of all animal/plant based organic wastes are highly potent fertilizers. They also possess some ability to repel plant pests. The factors that shape these properties have been assessed and the knowledge gaps that need to be bridged have been identified.

“…Entretanto, foi testada neste estudo devido a possibilidade de ocorrer maior biodisponibilidade no solo dos compostos nematicidas, nutrientes e demais substâncias estimuladoras do crescimento disponibilizados pelos adubos orgânicos (ROSTAMI et al, 2014). No entanto, não foi verificado incremento nos parâmetros avaliados.…”

Phytonematodes cause considerable losses in agricultural production worldwide, their main form of control is through the use of chemical nematicides. However, this form of control is inefficient due to the high costs and negative impacts on human health and the environment, requiring new control alternatives. The use of organic fertilizers can modify and provide improvements in the quality of the soil promoting the growth of plants and can also reduce the incidence of phytomatomatoids. The objective of the study was to evaluate the potential of three organic fertilizers, applied in solid or liquid form, in the control of Pratylenchus brachyurus in soybeans. The experiment was carried out in a 3x2+1 factorial scheme, with three replications. Two organic compounds and a vermicompost were applied to the soil in solid or liquid form and the control received only mineral fertilizer. For this, soybean plants were grown in a greenhouse, with the addition of 2,000 specimens of P. brachyurus to the soil. The soybean produced greater dry mass of the aerial part when the three organic fertilizers were added to the soil in solid form in relation to the treatment with mineral fertilization. Among the forms of application, the solid provided better performance in the parameters of the plant superior to the liquid. The solid vermicompost increases the dry mass of the aerial part of the plant grown in soil infested with P. brachyurus.

“…A study was carried out on application of vermiwash, liquid vermicompost, and coelomic fluid extracted from earthworm Eisenia fetida to control root-knot nematode ( Meloidogyne javanica ) in vitro and under greenhouse conditions ( Rostami et al, 2014 ). The results showed that the three products (vermicompost, coelomic fluid, and vermiwash) had the highest effect on egg hatching inhibition respectively.…”

Vermiwash is a liquid extract produced from vermicompost in a medium where earthworms are richly populated. It comprises a massive decomposer bacteria count, mucus, vitamins, different bioavailable minerals, hormones, enzymes, different antimicrobial peptides, etc. This paper aimed to assess how these natural products in vermiwash suppressed the pathogen and pests. Thus, we have reviewed the importance of vermiwash/vermicompost in disease control, the mechanism of disease suppression, the components of vermiwash applied in disease suppression, and pest control to use the scientific facts in agriculture to enhance the productivity of the crops. The bioactive macromolecules from the skin secretion of earthworm, coelomic fluid, and mucus directly able to defend pathogenic soil microbes against the worm and thereby freed the environment from the disease. Earthworms establish symbiotic relations with microbes, produce an essential product that supports the growth of plants, and suppress plant's root disease. It is recomended that earthworm should be inoculated in an agricultural field, or prepare and apply its vermiwash/vermicompost as a spray or as additive bio-fertilizer in the soil to enhance the productivities of the crops.
