A. A. Ansary. 2007. Reclamation of Sodic Soils through Vermitechnology. J. Soil. Nature. 1(1):27-31 Present investigations were carried out during 1998-2000 at Shivri farm of Uttar Pradesh Bhumi Sudhar Nigam, Lucknow, India, to study the application of organic amendments in varied combinations in sodic soils thereby exploring the role of earthworms in soil reclamation. Among the combinations used in the present investigation, amendment [VWTGMEVC] has shown significant results. Sodic soil bioremediation was significant in plots treated with [VWTGMEVC] “vermiwash, tillage, green manure, mulch, earthworms and vermicompost”, suggesting qualitative improvement in the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. The average yield of wheat and paddy crop cycle during the two years of trial showed a significantly greater response in plots [VWTGMEVC], compared with the control, chemical and FYM plots. The reduced cost of cultivation, less cost-benefit ratio and higher net income from wheat and paddy cultivation has been recorded through Vermitech pattern compared with the use of chemical fertilisers.
