Nutrição vegetal a partir da vermicompostagem

Abstract

Plant nutrition is directly related to the absorption of substances present in the environment, mainly in the soil. Among these substances, macro and micronutrients are essential for their metabolism and growth. Sometimes, plants do not have the necessary amount of these nutrients, lacking practices capable of replenishing and assisting in the process of plant nutrition. Then comes vermicomposting, which is a process that uses earthworms to accelerate the biological transformation of organic waste, resulting in humus or vermicompost. The objective of the work is to analyze the knowledge of the population in relation to the use of composting and vermicomposting, as well as the consumption of organic foods from the vermicomposting technique in the daily diet. Aiming at the scientific dissemination of the results obtained in the work, a material was developed from the perspective of a card game “Flashcards” - Vermicomposting. The game wins is an interesting tool for learning, as it encourages and stimulates students, developing different levels of personal and social experience.
