Influence of Worm Density on the Growth of Eudrilus eugeniae [PDF]
Tropicultura, 1997 The experiment shows that there is an optimal density to obtain the highest biomass when rearing hatchlings of Eudrilus eugeniae. Higher densities induce lower individual weight gain and longer duration to sexual maturity.
