Vermiculture, initiated in a small basket by a handful of villagers from Gagalphedi VDC of Kathmandu is growing. After the Rural Community Development Society introduced the vermiculture in the village, the Gagal community Coordination Committee, a local CBO, to propagated the vermis outside the farmyard from the basket. With the initial success of the vermiculture that also gives quick economic return, the local CBOs are committed to develop a vermiculture in a larger scale in the field and disseminate the vermiculture techniques to wider scale by developing a vermiculture resource centre with the support from READ Nepal.
