Optimising Organics and Cultivating Circularity for Australian Agriculture - Rita's Farm

At Rita’s Farm in Wallacia, NSW, compost is at the heart of a simple but powerful circular system. By turning vegetable waste back into compost, the farm reduces costs, cuts waste and improves soil health—without relying on synthetic fertilisers. The on-farm compost supports rich soil biology, helping produce healthier crops while maintaining long-term productivity. With the right system in place, composting becomes a practical, low-cost solution that closes the loop from paddock to plate and back again.
