Knowing earthworms
A worm was known in antiquity as plowing or gut of the earth because excavated galleries, returning to the porous ground and providing oxygenation and water permeability.
But it was in California during the decade of the 50s, home of the first intensive breeding of earthworms. Since then they have continued to undertake research in order to get more and more worms and more rustic degradative capacity. Currently the main types used in the intensive worm are three existing eight thousand species: Eisenia foetida; Lombricus rubellus; Red Hybrid.
By their external appearance is very difficult to distinguish. However, differences in regard to their technique of operation are remarkable. Lombricus rubellus and Eisenia foetida require greenhouses equipped with heating, lighting and surfaces artificially limited, while Red Hybrid, it is possible to exploit it in an open field without permanent accommodation or greenhouses. Knowing earthworms
From the ecological point of view, earthworms are classified as epigeic, live on the soil surface, feeding on organic matter and produce humus. Endogenous are the best known, live in the soil, dig horizontal galleries and eat dirt. Anechoic, living in the soil, dig vertical galleries and overnight rise to the surface of the soil feeding on organic matter.
The hermaphroditic earthworm is insufficient, saying both sexes, but need to mate to reproduce. Each worm is equipped with a male genitalia and a female genital tract. The male genital system is composed of the testes are glands that secrete sperm. The female genital tract receives and holds the sperm until fertilization.

They are extremely prolific. Sexually mature between the second and third months of life, deposited every 7-10 days, a capsule or egg content ranging from 2-20 embryos turn after 14-21 days of incubation, hatch, causing worms in terms of immediately move and nurtured. Each worm can live up to 16 years.
Recycling Pinworms
Earthworms are able to ingest daily through 90por percent of their average body weight 0.6 gr. The use of the worm would be optimal for her treatment of some waste, not only from an economic standpoint, but, above all, ecological. Also produce humus that is an excellent fertilizer as well as having all the essential nutrients (N, P, K, C) contains a rich bacterial flora, which allows the recovery of nutrients retained in the field, the processing of other materials organic and the elimination of many contaminants.
