The Australian Federal Government recently announced grant awards as part of its $1.5 billion Modern Manufacturing Strategy. These grants were set up to help Australian businesses build or scale their capabilities towards a supply chain vulnerability for agricultural production chemicals. Phase 1 awards were announced earlier this month and were aimed at offering 27 projects […]
So, what is soil carbon, and why is it so important? Through photosynthesis carbon is removed from the atmosphere by plants, which convert carbon dioxide into plant material. What the plant doesn’t need for growth is exuded via the roots to feed soil microorganisms. Carbon is the main component of soil organic matter which helps […]

The idea of regenerative agriculture can seem too big, confusing and it’s just hard to know where you start on this journey. After more than 10 years investigating this topic and a recently completed PhD on our products, Converte are well placed to assist farmers on the first steps towards a regenerative future. Converte have […]
Fertilizer costs are at 12 year high and supply shortages are impacting farmers across the country. Now is the time to take advantage of soil testing to ensure that soils are optimally balanced to maximise nutrient availability and cycling. A good soil chemistry test is really worth its weight in gold and can guide soil and fertiliser […]

We have completed a joint research study with Western Sydney University and the findings are outlined in a report, Improved Efficiency of Argo-Chemical Fertilisers as a Consequence of Enhanced Soil Treatments: Investigation the Impact of Converte Bio-Fertiliser and Seed Primer on Soil and Plant Health. Summary of Findings: UNP additions stimulated basal respiration (considered a […]

We were delighted to receive this report from Johannes Meier, a regenerative farmer at Inverell, NSW. The study compared a range of pasture treatments and measured overall production, soil and plant health. Report Abstract: Research has shown that pasture soil health and productivity is decreasing worldwide while climate change is increasing the challenges of primary […]
