Hi Connie!
So you want to get into the worm biz?
There is plenty of room for more. When you consider that in some counties there is 1 to 2 million tons of dairy manure per year! That is alot of S__T!!!
And that is PER county!!!
California is the nation's number one dairy state. Its 1.4 million dairy cows produced 3.2 billion gallons of milk in 1998, generating 18% of the national supply and over $3.6 billion in sales.
However, these cows generate approximately 30 million tons of manure each year, so proper management of dairy waste on California's 2,700 dairy farms is one of the state's most pressing environmental issues.
That is just from california dairies....can you imagine the horse manure, landfills, and all the other possibilities in every state!!! The worming industry is in its infancy, and the potential is astronomical!
I have to warn you though it is extremely addictive. Not just to you, but to all that might experience the fruits of you and your herds labors.
At first it is fairly easy, but if you decide to grow to a larger size worm ranch.... well, then, it gets a bit harder. But that goes for any biz you might get into. One thing I can assure you is that you wont be working long hours 7 days a week
That is unless you want to lol.
Welcome aboard!
