T-Help Project: "Worm"iculture
The Trans-Himalayan Environment and Livelihood Program (T-HELP), with the help of World Expeditions, has been training Nepalese farmers in Vermicomposting - or as we like to call it, Wormiculture.
Why Vermicomposting?
Vermicomposting and bio-pesticide build the climate resilience of the local farmers in the long term.
Vermicomposting and bio-pesticide reduce the use of chemicals which creates healthier soil, reduces water pollution and biodiversity loss and is better for the health of those ingesting the food grown in the soil.
Vermicomposting supplements the fertiliser that is a deficit to farmers
Farmers will benefit from utilising earthworms for poultry and fish feed.
The control of pests and diseases by bio-pesticide will increase productivity
Sustainable farming creates sustainable livelihoods for marginalised female farmers.
