Abstract
Like any other living organism, earthworm requires certain favourable conditions to feed, grow and survive (Table 7.1). As a potentially important bio-agent in waste management practises, earthworms are cultured in large scale depending on the species required. To achieve better growth, certain environmental conditions are usually provided in laboratory or industrial level. Such optimal conditions and the effect of various environmental factors are discussed in this chapter.
