The calcium worm farming model of Mr. Nguyen Duc An, Phuong Lai area, Lam Thao town, Lam Thao district has initially brought about efficiency, creating a source of food for livestock.
Mr. Nguyen Duc An in Phuong Lai area, Lam Thao town, Lam Thao district is one of the pioneers participating in the calcium worm farming model. Mr. An shared: “My family often raises hybrid chickens in the garden, but because the amount of food in the wild is not enough, I have to search and buy additional food for the chickens. The town's Farmers' Association allowed me to try it out, and after just a few weeks, I had a large amount of worms to provide for the chickens. If the model can be expanded, it will also help reduce food costs as well as treat organic waste.”
Realizing that raising calcium worms (also known as black soldier fly larvae) is a simple technique, saves costs, and is capable of digesting organic components in household waste, especially damaged vegetables, tubers, and fruits... creating a source of nutritious food for livestock, creating humus for crops, Thanh Ba District Farmers' Association is implementing a pilot program in two communes, Ninh Dan and Hanh Cu, with general training and calcium worm raising techniques with over 80 members participating. According to some people who are raising calcium worms on a pilot program, raising calcium worms is both a source of food for livestock and poultry, reducing costs in livestock farming, increasing profits for farmers, and solving the problem of environmental pollution from untreated organic waste in daily life, creating environmentally friendly products. Not only that, calcium worms have nutritional components including 43-51% protein, 15-18% fat, 2.8-6.2% calcium, 1-1.2% phosphorus, which is a nutritious food, suitable for raising poultry, aquatic products... From only 10 grams of initial worm eggs, after a period of raising, you can harvest 25-30kg of finished worms.
Mr. Vu Cong Binh - Director of the Center for Farmer Support and Vocational Education, Deputy of the Waste Project Management Board, Provincial Farmers' Association said: Raising calcium worms is an activity within the Project "Propaganda and mobilization of farmers to treat waste in Vietnam, contributing to the international community's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions" (DART) developed and implemented by the Central Vietnam Farmers' Association in coordination with the Organization for Supporting Regional Solutions for Communities and Ecosystems (BRACE Fund). The Provincial Waste Project Management Board has directed Farmers' Associations at all levels to participate in the project, organize training, build pilot models for officials and members to visit and learn from experience. Households raising calcium worms are supported with training in farming techniques and breeding from the project's source, initially bringing positive results, opening the way for many farmers to access this livestock...
Through the Project, it contributes to reducing the impact of climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, while promoting and mobilizing farmers to apply waste conversion methods to increase productivity and income. Converting waste in the fields such as straw, crop by-products and organic waste from households, businesses and restaurants into animal feed helps reduce environmental pollution.
