Crops & Farms

Growing crops of any kind can be a stressful experience. Attempting to get your crops to pan out like you want them can be a gamble, and you might have a lot at stake. Wouldn't it be nice to minimize the risk associated with your crops this year?

If that sounds attractive, it's time for you to explore worm castings. How can earthworm castings help your crops?

  • Cost-effective soil supplement at large scale – With the potency of worm castings, a little bit can go a long way. Worm castings also have natural pest-resistance built-in, so you can avoid the cost of a lot of expensive pesticides also.
  • Use less water – Besides the cost savings of the product, you'll also be able to realize savings in how much water you give your crops. Many farms have been able to cut their water consumption by up to 50% by using worm castings, due to their ability to retain moisture in the soil.
  • Increased yield – In the farming business, yield can make all the difference. Worm castings have the ability to increase yields by more than 25% on many crops. By the time you factor that into the cost-benefit analysis of worm castings, it starts to make a lot of sense.
  • Easy to handle – With many commercial fertilizers, you have to wear protective equipment when handling them. The toxic fumes can kill you and they can burn your skin. With worm castings, you can pick them up with your bare hand without worrying about injury. They're also not disgusting to handle like other organic fertilizers. They also have no smell to deal with.
  • Organic matter – Unlike traditional fertilizers, worm castings are comprised of organic matter. This supplements the soil in a way that leads to long-term benefits. Many commercial fertilizers strip the soil of nutrients and can leave them barren after a few years of use. With earthworm castings, you actually enhance the soil for the long-term. The organic matter in the castings deposits itself into the soil and into the plants. Most regular fertilizers are just designed for a short-term boost of nitrogen to get crops growing. Worm castings help you now and in the future.
  • Disease protection – If you've been farming for several years, you most likely have had to contend with diseases in your crops. Depending on the disease, it could completely devastate your crops. By planting your crops with worm castings, they'll have a protective barrier around them throughout their life cycle. That means you lose fewer crops to disease, and improve the bottom line.

If you're tired of messing around with inferior fertilizers on your crops, it might be time to give worm castings a shot.  Need more than a 15lb bag?  We ship by the ton or truckload anywhere in the USA.  Click here to get a quote for bulk worm castings for your farm!
