Abstract

The use of intensive technologies in agriculture, with the introduction of large amounts of mineral fertilizers, pesticides and a reduction in the application of organic fertilizers, has led to a shortage of humus balance in the soil. A progressive solution in this situation is the production and application of vermicomposting, which not only restores soil fertility, but also significantly increases the economic efficiency of agricultural industries. This article presents the results of a study that showed the reduction to a reasonable minimum of external anthropogenic impacts on the agro ecosystem and the activation of its own bio potential through the use of alternative fertilizers give a positive effect in maintaining soil fertility, protecting the natural environment and obtaining a sustainable harvest. The experience has shown that the degree of influence of fertilizer types turned out to be very significant in the variants where organic fertilizers and vermicomposting were applied, which clearly confirms that these types of fertilizers significantly affect the formation of plant biomass.
