Application of vermicompost makes three types of impacts on soil and plants.
         
         Physical:
         
         · increases the water holding capacity of the soil;
         · promotes soil aeration;
         · improves soil structure and friability;
         · reduces soil erosion;
         · facilitates the workability of soils.
         
         
         Chemical:
         
         · increases the amount of nutrients in the soil (organic and inorganic);
         · turns inaccessible forms of the compounds into useable power plants;
         · prevents groundwater contamination with heavy metals and radionuclides;
         · reduces the degree of leaching (chemical) fertilizers;
         · reduces the dose of fertilizer giving the same crop when using in the field;
         · increases the buffering capacity of soils, which increases their ability to resist chemical stresses. 
         
         
         Biological:
         
         · stimulates the growth of soil microflora and accelerates mineralization of organic substances;
         · acts as a carrier and vehicle of nutrients through the cell wall;
         · enhances cell respiration;
         · stimulates the growth of roots and shoots;
         · increases the viability and the percentage of seed germination;
         · increases the solids content in the plants;
         · interrupts the flow into the plant heavy metals and radionuclides;
         · reduces the nitrate content in fruits and vegetables;
         · reduces the need for chemical fertilizers;
         · increases the rate of plant growth;
         · shortens the vegetation period of plants;
         · improves crop quality and increases the retention period of agricultural products;
         · increases the resistance of plants to diseases.
         
         
         Economic:
         
         · one ton of vermicompost is equivalent to 20 tons of compost;
         · three - five tons of vermicompost per 1 ha increases productivity of agricultural lands twice;
         · is working in the soil for at least 4 years;
         · reduces the use of chemicals and fertilizers;
         · reduces costs of transportation;
         · reduces fuel needed for soil;
         · reduces labor costs (person / hour);
         · mulching humus into the soil, when using it in urban forestry   avoids cutting and disposal of soil contaminated with 
         heavy metals;
         · is used in remediation of oil-contaminated soils.
         
         As a conclusion, all these factors enable to produce high quality and environmentally friendly agricultural products and to 
         reduce losses during storage.
