Red earthworm reproduction in organic livestock substrates. Cultures of earthworm (Eisenia fetida) in semiarid zones are affected by substrates quality, and climatic conditions, limiting its repro duction. Different organic livestock substrates were used in this study, to determine its effects in the rate reproduction of red earthworm. A completely randomized experimental design, in a factorial arrangement with three replications was used . The evaluation shows that the substrates of beef bovine manure (BBM), goat manure (GM) and milk bovine manure + cellulose wastes (MBM+CW) had best performance in the reproduction. The substrate BBM showed bigger individuals number 35 days after, including the earthworms with clitellum and juvenile earthworm, reaching a population of 25,422.0 individuals per 0.2 m3, while the substrate GM in a similar period of time, revealed bigger capsule number and capsules weight. The substrate MBM+CW presented an increase of 36 % in 14 days as related to the initial weight of the amount of inoculated earthworm . No significant differences in the weight of juvenile earthworms were found, as related to the inoculated population of earthworms and the studied substrates. The developed experience indicated that all substrates were suitable for the earthworm reproduction.
