Evaluación de la calidad de diferentes fuentes orgánicas en la producción de lombricomposta

Abstract

Abstract:Vermiculture is one of the best ways to produce organic fertilizers of excellent quality, which serves to improve soils, therefore, make them more productive. The study aimed to produce and evaluate physical and chemical parameters of worm humus and leachate from three different organic sources: Bovine Manure (T1), Kitchen Waste (T2) and Caprino Manure (T3). After having gone through the vermicomposting process, we proceeded to analyze the samples and obtain the humus and leachate to see if there is a significant statistical difference. The results indicate that the evaluation between the three fertilizers is very similar, both for the physical fertilizer (humus), and for the leachate, considering that the values range from regular to good in the different parameters evaluated, however, the micro Elements Cu, Zn in the leachate part shows high values in the three treatments, which could be an inconvenience for the application of these fertilizers to fertilize the soils, so more research would be needed, in order to reduce these values.
