Author(s): Sushmita, Dr. Rita Goel and Dr. Beena Yadav

Abstract: Vermicompost is used for providing nutrients N, P and K to plant which is beneficial for the growth of plants. Vermicompost is cost-effective as compared to inorganic fertilizers. So the study was conducted to assess the knowledge of respondents regarding vermincompost. The study was conducted in four villages of two districts i.e. Sirsa and Hisar of Haryana state. Total 240 respondents (30 males and 30 female from each village) were taken for the study. The result shows that rural people have low knowledge regarding vermicompost. Not a single statement covers 50.00 percent of respondents regarding the compost. Only 40.00 percent of respondents have knowledge about correct method of preparing the compost. Overall knowledge of the rural people regarding different aspects of compost is low.
