Green Worms is derived from "Green" raw plants and "Worms" from earthworms.
40% of kitchen waste is made of raw organic food materials like potato peelings, vegetable remains, crop residue etc. These waste are considered of no value and thus just wasted.
Earthworms are used to make organic manure through a process called vermicomposting.
With Green Worms idea, we shall be collecting organic kitchen waste from homes and institution like hotels, schools and hospitals, we will then take this waste to a decomposing unit, these units will have decomposition sectors made from waste plastic drums or wooden trays put under a shade, at the bottom of each tray there will be a small layers of sand for filtration and an outlet pipe, the other part will be filled with the organic waste part of it being already decomposing materials so that the the worm can have something to feed on, worms will be added to the tray and the tray covered with sisal sack to make it dark and also add some water to make it moist.
Worms will breakdown these organic waste into nutrient-rich compost manure which can be inform of liquid or solid, this organic manure will be sold to farmers.
