Article Synopsis
  • Global issues of food production and waste recycling can be addressed by recycling organic waste into crop amendments like vermicompost.
  • This study used earthworms (Eisenia fetida) to create vermicompost from six desert plant species mixed with farmyard manure (FYM) and found that P. cineraria vermicompost significantly enhanced maize growth and yield metrics.
  • Key results showed that the vermicompost from P. cineraria led to the highest plant height, yield, nutrient uptake, and photosynthetic efficiency, suggesting its effectiveness for improving maize crops.
