How do earthworms help farmers?

Earthworms fertilize the soil because they are detritivites, meaning that they eat dead matter in the soil as they move and turn it into nutrients. Earthworms eat soil and excrete soil quite quickly. What the earthworm excretes fertilizes the soil and helps the farmer for planting and growing crops. It helps because it drags down nutrients from rotting leaves, food etc. and fertilizes the soil during the process. They also create air spaces in the soil (aerate it) which helps the roots take up oxygen for photosynthesis.
