The landscape of dedicated digital solutions solely focused on vermicomposting is limited.
However, there have been some developments in the realm of online education courses and
research papers addressing related aspects, particularly in the domain of Automatic Monitoring
and Correction via the Internet of Things (IoT). In recent years, there have been online
education courses and mobile applications available that delve into the intricacies of
Vermicomposting [83, 84]. These courses might cover topics ranging from the basics of setting
up a vermicomposting system to more advanced techniques for optimizing compost quality and
worm activity. These educational platforms might offer video tutorials, instructional guides, or
interactive modules, providing enthusiasts and practitioners with comprehensive insights into
effective vermicomposting practices. Additionally, academic research and published papers
explore the integration of IoT in waste management and composting. These studies discuss
concepts and prototypes for automatic monitoring and correction systems that utilize IoT
sensors to track crucial parameters in composting, such as temperature, moisture, pH levels,
and oxygen content. These papers might propose methodologies or experimental setups for
leveraging IoT to optimize composting conditions automatically [85–89]. The absence of
specific digital solutions dedicated entirely to vermicomposting could be attributed to several
factors. Firstly, the field of vermicomposting, while gaining attention for its environmental
benefits, might not have yet garnered sufficient commercial interest to prompt the development
of standalone digital solutions. The diverse nature of vermicomposting methods, varying based
on location, available resources, and specific needs, might pose challenges in creating a
universally applicable digital solution. Moreover, the complexity of vermicomposting
processes and the range of variables involved, including environmental conditions, worm
species, and waste materials, might have deterred the immediate development of dedicated
digital tools. Developing a comprehensive and effective digital solution that addresses these
intricacies could require significant research, resources, and expertise. In essence, while there
might not have been prevalent digital solutions exclusively dedicated to vermicomposting, the
existence of educational courses and research papers exploring IoT applications in composting
indicates a growing interest and potential for technological advancements in this field. These
resources lay the groundwork for future innovations and the development of specialized digital
solutions tailored to vermicomposting practices.
