The invention relates to the technical field of
earthworm breeding, in particular to a method for breeding earthworms by using
edible fungus residues. The method comprises the steps of (1)
site selection and
layout, (2) base material preparation, (3)
earthworm bed laying, (4) introduction, (5)
earthworm breeding and (6) harvesting and
processing. According to base material preparation, after mouldy sticks, impurities and
fungus bags in the
edible fungus residues are removed and crushing is conducted to make the particle size of the
fungus residue particles smaller than 10 mm, the water contentis adjusted; after heap
retting softening, an aerobic EM bacterial liquid and a
nutrient enhancer are added for heap
retting fermentation; the
water content of pig
manure is adjusted to be 60-70%, and aerobic EM
bacteria and a
nutrient enhancer are added for aerobic
fermentation; when the temperature of the
edible fungus residues or pig
manure begins to decline, heap turning, ventilation and water supplementing are conducted,
ammonia toxins are removed, the operation is carried out until full
fermentation is achieved, and the pH is adjusted. By means of the method, the breeding speed is high,the yield of earthworms and earthworm cast is high, the quality of the earthworm cast is high, the
pollution of
heavy metals is small, and the nutritional value of the earthworms is high.
