ABSTRACT Vermicomposting is the bio-conversion of organic waste into bio-fertilizers using earthworms. Vermiwash acts as pesticide, disease curative and crop tonic and increase the yield of crops in multiples. Vermiwash and vermicompost were used to study their effect on the growth and yield of lab lab beans. The combination of vermicompost and vermiwash showed maximum positive effects on the growth and yield of lab lab beans. The experimental results showed significant variations in plant growth and yield parameters. This study also indicated that vermiwash and vermicompost could be utilized effectively for sustainable plant production at low input-basis green farming.
