dc.descriptionThe present study focuses on analyzing the breeding and reproduction of the California red worm (Eisenia foetida), a species of worm used in vermicomposting due to its high capacity for organic matter decomposition. An experiment was conducted under controlled conditions to evaluate different parameters related to the breeding and reproduction of these worms. Factors such as temperature, humidity, substrate type, and population density were examined to determine their influence on worm growth and reproduction. The results indicate that the optimal temperature for the breeding and reproduction of the California red worm is approximately 20-25°C, with substrate humidity of 70-80%. A higher reproduction rate was observed in substrates composed of organic matter, especially manure and vegetable waste. It was also found that moderate population density favors worm reproduction and growth. These findings provide valuable information for improving vermicomposting practices and promoting the sustainable use of the California red worm in agriculture and waste management.es_ES

dc.description.abstractEl presente estudio se enfoca en analizar la crianza y reproducción de la lombriz roja californiana (Eisenia foetida), una especie de lombriz utilizada en la vermicompostaje debido a su alta capacidad de descomposición de materia orgánica. Se llevó a cabo un experimento en condiciones controladas para evaluar diferentes parámetros relacionados con la crianza y reproducción de estas lombrices. Se examinaron factores como la temperatura, la humedad, el tipo de sustrato y la densidad poblacional para determinar su influencia en el crecimiento y reproducción de las lombrices. Los resultados indican que la temperatura óptima para la crianza y reproducción de la lombriz roja californiana es de aproximadamente 20-25°C, con una humedad del sustrato del 70-80%. Se observó una mayor tasa de reproducción en sustratos compuestos por materia orgánica, especialmente estiércol y residuos vegetales. Asimismo, se encontró que una densidad poblacional moderada favorece la reproducción y el crecimiento de las lombrices. Estos hallazgos proporcionan información valiosa para mejorar las prácticas de vermicompostaje y promover el uso sostenible de la lombriz roja californiana en la agricultura y la gestión de residuos.es_ES
