Worms break up the ground which is very helpful if you are a grower of food or plants/flower grower, the ground would remain very hard making it difficult to feed plants or for plants to absorb water.

The world would probably survive, but many forms of life would be adversely affected without the worms. They are an important and overlooked link in the food chain. Also, earthworms till the soil and help plants to grow.
