Dispositif utilisé en horticulture pour obtenir un dégagement de chaleur artificielle d’une durée suffisante pour permettre, d’une part de réaliser des cultures à une époque où la température extérieure reste défavorable et d’autre part d’en activer la végétation. 1, record 2, French, - couche

L'élément essentiel de la couche sont les débris végétaux, généralement du fumier, dont la fermentation s’accompagne d’un dégagement de chaleur. Le plus souvent, la couche est isolée de l'atmosphère par des châssis vitrés posés sur un coffre, à l'intérieur duquel végéteront les plantes à forcer. Ce dispositif constitue depuis longtemps une façon opérationnelle très efficace d’utilisation de l'énergie solaire sous forme directe et stockée dans la matière organique. Malheureusement, les techniques mises en œuvre jusqu'à présent exigent une main d’œuvre importante. 1, record 2, French, - couche

Vermicast. Organic Fertilizer ... In the crudest sense vermicast is simply organic material that has passed through the gut of a worm. However during this otherwise unglamorous process the castings gain their not inconsiderable potency. The gut of a worm is teeming with bacteria and enzymes with which it digests its food. Huge numbers of these stay with the castings. It is these creatures that release the nutrients locked in the soil and make them available for plants to take up. So the vermicast is full of soluble plant-friendly nutrients, and the capacity to continue it's good work in the soil with the bacteria and enzymes. 3, record 3, English, - worm%20manure

Un engrais biologique de haute performance! Le fumier de vers de terre de la Ferme Eugénia est un produit sain, complètement naturel et un fertilisant de très haute qualité. Il a notamment une forte teneur en azote assimilable, en oligo-éléments, en matière organique ainsi qu'en phosphore et en potassium. L'azote est un nutriment clé pour la croissance des plantes. L'azote assimilable peut-être directement absorbé par les racines et convient donc particulièrement au démarrage de semis, tant à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur. 1, record 3, French, - fumier%20de%20vers%20de%20terre
