Abstract

Presented article outlines the proposals for biological wastes of aquaculture disposal by use of Eisenia foetida earthworms. In the duration of this study an experiment was carried out: productivity of Eisenia foetida earthworm’s biological wastes disposal was studied on the example of existing aquaculture facility. Results of research presented point on actual recyclability of aquaculture biological wastes into vermicompost by use of earthworms and also prove the practical possibility of vermicomposting as biological wastes of aquaculture disposal method.
