Abstract

The present study was undertaken May-September (2007) to investigate the effect of organic viz., plant compost (PC), vermicompost (VC), integrated plant compost (IPC) and farmyard manure (FYM) and inorganic (NPK) fertilisers on the rhizosphere microbial population and soil physico chemical properties of soybean variety JS80-21. Control (CON) plot was also maintained without any fertilisers. Results showed that application of organic fertilisers had enhanced the microbial population compared to NPK and CON. The highest fungal and bacterial population was recorded in VC and the least in CON plot. Application of organic fertilisers also showed increase in rhizosphere soil physicochemical properties compared to NPK and CON plots. The above finding revealed that organic fertilisers would be able to sustain the soil fertility for a longer period by meeting the demand of present and future generation.
