Vermi-composting utilizes earthworms to accelerate the decomposition process of organic matter, resulting in a nutrient-rich compost known as vermi-compost. The presence of earthworms enhances microbial activity, aerates the compost, and produces a finer-textured end product.

Vermicomposting differs from traditional composting methods primarily in its use of earthworms to accelerate the decomposition process. In vermicomposting, organic waste materials are consumed and digested by earthworms, resulting in a nutrient-rich compost known as vermicompost. This method typically produces compost faster, with higher nutrient content and microbial activity, making it a preferred choice for many organic gardeners and farmers.
