Q: What is Bioculum?
A: Bioculum is a composting culture in powder form.
Q: How does Bioculum work?
A: When mixed with organic waste and moisture, Bioculum activates microbes that decompose waste aerobically, releasing CO₂, absorbing nitrogen, and increasing the temperature by 35–40°C. This accelerates composting.
Q: What is the composition of Bioculum?
A: It consists of a consortium of microbes mounted on a powder substrate with food and moisture to support their growth.
Q: What are the benefits of Bioculum?
A: Bioculum is ready-to-use, kills weed seeds and insect larvae during composting, and completes the process in 30–35 days.
Q: How to prepare Bioculum slurry?
A: Mix Bioculum in water and stir well.
Q: Can Bioculum be used directly on agricultural waste?
A: Yes, Bioculum can be directly applied to agricultural waste.
Q: How many days after using Bioculum can we see results?
A: Composting takes 30–35 days. Maintain 40% moisture and turn the heap periodically for uniform results.
Q: How often should the heap be turned?
A: Once every week.
Q: What is the shelf life of Bioculum?
A: 1 year.
Q: How is Bioculum different from other decomposers?
A: It is ready-to-use, fast-acting, and easy to apply. If used as slurry, microbes activate within 10 minutes.
