Worm Farm Management: Practices, Principles, Procedures

'Anyone can be a successful worm grower; all it takes is a little commonsense, an understanding of the worm's natural behaviour and a rotational system of management!'

Eric Wilson's extensive experience in worm farming makes him well equipped to discuss varieties, numbers, bed sizes, manure types, tools -- in short, all that is needed to farm worms -- right through to mass production possibilities. Worm Farm Management contains advice on feeding regimes, performance indicators, harvesting, temperature requirements and castings. There is information on intriguing behaviours, such as the gut shot syndrome, worm walkout and breeder burnout.

Whether you are interested in running a worm farm purely for the needs of the home garden bed or for full-scale commercial production, the information contained in Worm Farm Management is vital. It is a book that any worm farmer will keep wriggling back to.
