Abstract

Background and Objectives: Nowadays VERMICOMPOST production of FOOD WASTES is posed as oneof appropriate methods to FOOD WASTES. disposal, itsproduction used in agriculture and gardening.Moreover this process has some by products beside useful fertilizer that one of them is the worms. We can use them in variety of products specially in production of poultry and fish food. So determinationof optimal condition for operating VERMICOMPOSTproduction process of FOOD WASTES and worms.growth in these wastes is important.The aim of this study was determination of optimal temperature and moisture range for processprogression in VERMICOMPOST production of FOOD WASTES.Materials and Methods: In this study we used EISENIA FOETIDA species. Process performed in potswith 15 cm (h) and 12 cm (d) and in a mouth period of time. Three ranges of temperature including5-15, 15-25, 25-35 oC and three ranges of moisture including 55-65%, 65-75%, 75-85% were appliedin this study.Results: Multivariate analysis was used for analyze of results and it showed that influence of temperature and moisture on C:N ratio is significant inVERMICOMPOSTing process (p<0.05).Conclusion: The results showed that the range of temperature 15-25oC is more appropriate foroperating of process. Due to these study.s results with increasing or reduction of ambient temperature,like summer and winter, conservation of moisture around the range of 65-75 %, is effective in better performance of the process. According to this studys results, it seems that the temperature of15- 25oC and moisture of 65-75% are better conditions for worm.s growth.
