For Civil Projects
Are you dealing with compacted soil, erosion issues, or poor vegetation establishment on your civil site? Do you need a solution that improves soil structure, increases water retention, and promotes robust plant growth without relying heavily on chemical inputs?
Vermicast is an efficient, sustainable solution for civil projects. It enhances soil fertility, boosts microbial activity, and supports healthy vegetation, making it ideal for applications such as roadside rehabilitation, erosion control, and green infrastructure projects.
At MyNoke, our goal is to help you build resilient, productive soils that support your project’s long-term success. Vermicast (worm castings) enriches the soil, fostering a healthier environment for plants to thrive while reducing the need for chemical fertilisers. Whether you’re stabilising slopes or establishing green spaces, vermicast offers a natural, eco-friendly way to enhance your civil engineering outcomes.

Vermicast benefits
- Full of natural plant growth bio-stimulants - cytokinins, gibberellins, auxins and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Gibberellins and auxins boost root growth and activity. This increases nutrient uptake and provides plants with greater access to water in the root zone. IAA is proven to be effective in repelling insects such as caterpillars and aphids. At the same time, it attracts pollinators.
- Contain beneficial soil microorganisms - bacteria, fungi, mycorrhiza, protozoa (flagellates, amoebae, ciliates) for soil health.
- Stimulate plant root growth and activity
- Increase water holding capacity
- Increase nutrient holding capacity (high cation exchange capacity)
- Unlock nutrients – reducing the need for additional fertilisers
- Help suppress plant diseases
- Strengthen plants against insect attack
- Support pollinating insects
- Free from added chemicals
- Free from added fillers
- Are a long-lasting soil humus
Vermicast application recommendations
Our 20 mm screened vermicast is suitable for most commercial fertiliser spreaders and all muck spreaders.
Applying MyNoke vermicast to the soil surface is ideal as this allows feeder roots to interact with plant growth stimulators and beneficial microorganisms in the vermicast.
For recommended application rates download the MyNoke Vermicast Brochure.
Watering after application of vermicast is recommended. For optimal results, worm castings should be used as soon as possible. All MyNoke products are naturally produced and nurtured by free range, living earthworms, and may contain seeds.
MyNoke Vermicast meets the New Zealand Standards for Composts, Soil Conditioners and Mulches; NZS4454:2005.
