Vermicompost Nutrient Composition and Itꞌs Influence on Productivity and Quality of Cabbage (Brassica Oleracea Var. Capitata ) and Tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ): A Review

To feed ever increasing population enhancing productivity by sing integrated agricultural practices are paramount important. Among agricultural practice production of horticultural crops vegetables crops are the major one. To obtain significant yield, quality of agricultural products having suitable and fertile soil is paramount important. To increase production and productivity using technology that increase production and productivity of crops with affordable cost for the growers, sustainable production and sound for the environment. According to researchers finding, vermicompost can prepared from organic materials by decomposing organic inputs decomposer, worms. As several research finding indicates that proportion of nutrient available in vermicompost are higher than other organic materials. Furthermore application of vermicompost increased productivity of cabbage and tomato as well. As different Authors finding showed that the vermicompost with recommended doses of chemical fertilizers was suitable for the improved growth and yield of cabbage and tomato. The highest yield were obtained from the crop which was planted in treatment three. Vermicompost in addition to fertilizers ensured favorable condition for the yield of cabbage and tomato crops.
