About Us


How it all started

Wormtech Pty Ltd is a 100% Australian-owned company, producing and supplying biological fertilisers and soil amendments with professional agronomy advice. We have over 20 years of hands-on experience in farming, growing crops such as cotton, wine grapes, citrus, seed crops, vegetables, and other horticultural crops in the Riverina, NSW. After years of using synthetic fertilisers, we decided to incorporate some natural biological fertilisers into our farming practices. The increase in quality, production and overall plant and soil health was noticeable. Our interest in biological fertilisers grew, particularly in the benefits of compost, compost worms, and their by-products.

Wormtech are proud to be diverting tens of thousands of tonnes of valuable organic resources destined for landfill and converting them into a range of high-grade biological fertilisers.

Our process transforms soil health by improving soil condition, increasing water-holding capacity, and boosting nutrient uptake by enhancing soil biology and organic structure.

As part of our operations, we liaise at every step of the chain, from council to customer, offering resource recovery solutions, products, and qualified agronomic advice for all your agricultural needs.
