Soil Testing Liquid Vermicompost with microBIOMETER®

Worm Power, a world leader in organic vermicompost products, helps growers improve crop yield and plant performance through increased root development and plant nutrient uptake. Worm Power’s Vermicompost Liquid Extract is shelf-stable soil amendment from liquid worm castings that have hundreds of diverse bacteria species.

The company currently utilizes the microBIOMETER® test to evaluate field trials on how their product is impacting the soil when compared to an untreated control. They like having the ability to show growers that the product is functioning as intended for increasing microbes in the soil.

Many specialty crops sterilize the soil to avoid pathogens. The addition of Worm Power’s products strives to bring soil back to a healthy and functional microbiome. microBIOMETER® provides the grower a visual measurement of the microbial community over time and the improvements gained with each application of their product. Healthy soils promote healthy plants and having a diverse microbe population is critical to this process and the microBIOMETER® provides a great tool to support their efforts.

"microBIOMETER® lets us see immediate results rather than waiting to see the increase in yield at the end of the season."

We are excited to be part of this movement!

Farmers, ranchers, entrepreneurs, and leaders in the regenerative movement who are actively accelerating positive changes in Arizona connected Oct. 6-7, 2023, for a 1.5-day program that delivered a real action plan for regeneration in the region.

Participants worked together with Dr. Yadi Wang on the first Regenerative Organic Certified® farm in the U.S. Southwest, a model for education, inspiration, and conversation. Participants built stronger peer-to-peer relationships, shared a common understanding of critical issues, explored regenerative agriculture in practice, and developed real solutions to problems preventing progress.
