Abstract: The present disclosure provides vermicompost made of aquatic plants and a preparation method of the vermicompost. The preparation method includes: mixing aquatic plant residues and fresh cow dung according to a proportion, and crushing the aquatic plant residues while stirring until even mixing; adding earthworms to a mixture of the aquatic plant residues and the cow dung, where the earthworms transform the mixture of the aquatic plant residues and the cow dung in a forest at 15-35° C., and moisture in the mixture is maintained at 65-75% in the process; and after 35-45 days, separating the earthworms and vermicompost, and drying the vermicompost to obtain the vermicompost made of aquatic plants.
