![]() A few kilometers from the road to the Shipka there is “hidden” an interesting place inhabited by red worms... On 500 square meters are living around 10 000 red worms per 1m2. Every day Dimo Stefanov, 25 years old farmer who made “appropriate techonology” his philosophy of life, is taking care about this organic company.
from school so he decided to link his hobby with “appropriate techonology” and he was searching for a profession which is “close to nature”. Appropriate technology is being mindful of what we’re doing and aware of the consequences of our activi - ties. Appropriate technology is a genuine grassroots solution to economic needs. The idea of this technology is that local people, struggling on a daily basis with their needs, understand those needs better than anyone and can therefore suggest or, in fact, invent the technological innovations necessary to meet those needs.
his farm. Biohumus is a new generation of fertilizer produced by California red worms that processed manure, straw, leaves, biomass. It contains large amounts of microorganisms cu-l tivation, bio-stimulants, vitamins, amino acids and humic acids, which are the main reserve of nutrients. Moreover, bio - humus has bactericidal properties, which hampers the development of diseases in the soil. Plants tolerate more easily cold, heat and drought. When he sprays, such an aqueous solution of biohumus is available, that reduces the need for chemicals against pests. All this greatly increases the yield. Dimo takes his red worms with him to visit many ekofestivals in Bulgaria. He wants to show people how precious are red worms for plants. People can make own compost, collect leaves, grass, waste fruits and vegetables in their own house - hold, everything what can be composted. In the near future, Dimo wants to make a connection with organic farmers and with local people to show them how to compost in a natural way, avoiding artificial methods.
