Abstract: The present study was assigned to evaluate the vermicompost from agricultural waste by using earthworm species (Eisenia fetida and Eudrilus Eugenie). Two boxes of agricultural waste (2kg mixture /box) were prepared .These sets were inoculated with 10 numbers of earthworms. Before vermicomposting process parameters like N, P, K, pH, EC, Organic carbon, organic matter, were calculated .After 60 days vermicomposting is completed and same parameters were analyzed. The vermicompost using earthworm species Eudrilus eugenie shows higher nutrients and increase number of earthworm than Eisenia fetida.
The N, P, K after vermicomposting shows the higher values than before vermicomposting it also shows near to neutral pH and EC values. The C/N ratio is optimum for growth and reproduction of worms.
Key word: Vermicompost, Agricultural waste, Earthworm, Nutrient, comparison.
