ABSTRACT
Vermicomposting is the process of breaking down biodegradable matter by earthworms to convert the contained nutrients in the organic matter to vermicast. In this project, the proponents introduced the development of an automated production of vermicast. Four subsystems were designed namely: Irrigation, Sensor network, Worm Migration, and Communication subsystem to minimize human intervention. The communication system involved the use of 2.4 GHz. The study uses node MCU, an android phone and liquid crystal display or web for monitoring. The automated project improved the manual process of vermicomposting by eliminating 4 processes from the manual system.
