Abstract

Vermicomposting was done for the first time in Bumthang valley, a town where temperature plummets to below sub-zero during winters and yearly annual temperature is -5.99% lower than Bhutan’s averages. Vermicomposting is highly beneficial in the face of increasing solid waste both at the national and global level besides being a rich soil amendment, packed with essential micro and macro nutrients.
