1. How to ferment cow dung to breed earthworms?

Method of breeding earthworms by fermenting cow dung:

Use straw or stalks (it is better to cut them into small pieces) to spread a layer of dry material (10-15 cm thick) first, and then spread manure (4-6 cm thick) on the dry material. Repeat this 3-5 layers, spraying water with a spray bottle for each layer (EM stock solution is added to the manure pile at this time, one ton of manure requires 10 kg of EM and about 100 kg of water) until the water seeps out; if garbage is used, lay one layer of garbage and one layer of manure, with no limit on length and width, and cover it tightly with a film; if 100% manure is used, first dry the manure until it is 50% to 60% dry, then pile it, wet it with EM diluted with water, and cover it tightly with a film.

Cow dung fermentation method: Use straw or stalks to spread a 10-15 cm thick layer of dry material, then spread 4-6 cm dung on the dry material and repeat 3-5 layers. Use a watering can to spray water on each layer until the water seeps out. If garbage is used, pile it up one layer of garbage and one layer of dung.

3. How to breed earthworms with cow dung?

1.

Choose fermented and dried cow dung.

Feeding earthworms with such cow dung not only has good air permeability, but also will not ferment and burn the earthworms

2.

Use water to expand the dry cow dung, then squeeze out the excess water. When the cow dung can be held in the hand and a small amount of water can be squeezed out from between the fingers (the relative water holding capacity is 70% at this time), you can start feeding.

3.

The feed can be covered in a full layer on the breeding bed without worrying about the earthworms being suffocated or burned.

4. How to ferment earthworm manure?

1. Manure-material ratio

(1) Cow dung 50%, pulp sludge 50%.

(2) 100% cow dung or 100% mixture of all livestock and poultry dung.

(3) 20% each of cow dung, pig dung, and chicken dung, and 40% of rice straw. Chicken dung must be left for more than one year or used to raise maggots before use.

2. Fermentation method

(1) Use rice straw or stalks cut into small pieces to lay a layer of dry material 10-15 cm thick on the ground, and then lay a layer of manure on top, with each layer 4-6 cm thick, and repeat this process. During the laying process, use a spray bottle to spray EM liquid on each layer (10 kg of EM liquid diluted with 100 kg of water is required for every ton of manure).

(2) The mixed pile is generally 1.5-2m high and 2m wide. The length is adjusted according to the amount of mixed materials and is generally not less than 2m. After the pile is formed, it should be covered tightly with film.

(3) When the temperature of the mixed pile reaches above 65°C, turn the mixed pile over, and continue turning it when the temperature reaches 65°C again. Generally, it needs to be turned over 3-5 times during this period. Fermentation will be completed in about 7 days.

5. How to breed earthworms with cow dung?

1. Feed formula: When feeding, use 50% cow dung, 50% pulp sludge, or 20% each of cow dung, pig dung, chicken dung, and 40% rice straw to feed the earthworms. Chicken manure must be used to raise maggots or left for more than 1 year before it can be used to raise earthworms, otherwise the earthworms will escape or die.

2. Feed fermentation: Use straw to spread a layer of dry material with a thickness of about 10-15 cm, and then spread 4 cm of manure on the dry material and repeat 3-5 layers. Use a watering can to spray water on each layer until the water seeps out. In high temperature weather, you can turn it over every 7 days. Generally, the feed fermentation work is completed after turning it over 3-5 times.

3. Feed preparation: After the feed is fermented, the pH value can be tested. The suitable pH value of earthworm feed is generally 6-7.5, but the pH value of many animal and plant wastes will be higher or lower than this value. If the pH exceeds 9, acetic acid, salt or citric acid can be used as a buffer.

6. How to ferment cow dung to breed earthworms?

Use straw to spread a 10-15 cm thick layer of dry material, and then spread 4 cm of manure on the dry material for fermentation. Repeat 3-5 layers. Spray an appropriate amount of water on each layer until the water seeps out. In hot weather, you can turn it over every 7 days, and generally 3-5 times will be enough.

7. How to process cow dung to raise earthworms?

1 Cow dung can be used to raise earthworms after composting. 2 Because earthworms like to eat organic matter, and cow dung is a good source of organic matter. During the composting process, most of the harmful substances in cow dung that are not conducive to the growth of earthworms will be decomposed, and a large amount of heat will be released, which is conducive to the growth of earthworms in winter. 3 When using cow dung to raise earthworms, it is necessary to pay attention to adding an appropriate amount of organic matter, controlling the moisture and temperature, and ensuring the growth and reproduction of earthworms. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid adding cow dung containing chemical substances to avoid adverse effects on earthworms.
