Gizzard
An earthworm, while moving, chews up some soil and spits out the same amount of soil back into the ground. The soil which was eaten becomes fertile and more plants will grow on fertile soil. therefore, an earthworm helps a farmer by making soil fertile.
It can move around on the surface without drying up!
By aerating and breaking up the soil it allows rainwater to penetrate easier and loosens the soil so that roots can take better hold.

underground they just come up in the rain because it flods the hole so they have to come up to breath
The earthworm is beneficial in many ways. First, they crawl through the garden soil, loosening up the soil so it can get more oxygen and bring more water in for the plant. Also, as the earthworm crawls thorugh the soil, he leaves poo and this naturally fertilizes the soil.
Earthworms ingest food through their mouths, where they consume organic matter, soil, and decaying plant material. As they burrow through the soil, they take in these materials, which are then ground up by their muscular gizzard. Nutrients are absorbed in the intestine, and any indigestible remnants are expelled as castings. This process plays a vital role in soil aeration and nutrient cycling.
