Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of earthworm casts and compost on soil microbial activity and plant nutrient availability
TL;DR: Results show that casts are an efficient source of plant nutrients and that they are less likely to produce salinity stress in container as compared to compost and synthetic fertilizers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separating earthworms from organic media using an electric field
Hala Chaoui,Harold M. Keener +1 more
TL;DR: The effectiveness of an electric current at repelling earthworms from a soil slab of organic media as a function of the voltage created across the worms was investigated, which was logarithmically proportional to the voltage generated across earthworms at a given electrode spacing.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Developing Field Containment Techniques of Earthworms to Increase Organic Fertilizer Efficiency
Hala Chaoui,Mohammad Reza Ehsani +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a 5 m underground electric field created across 40 cm deep soil electrodes to contain earthworms and tested the effect of forced soil aeration on the feeding rate of earthworms.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Modeling the Effectiveness of an Electric Field at Repelling Earthworms
TL;DR: In this paper, the effectiveness of the electric field was calculated as a function of the number of earthworms that exited the soil slab, up to the point where earthworm mortality started to occur.
