Abstract

Soil is an important component of the earth’s system, functioning not only for the production of food, fodder and fibre but also in the maintenance of local and regional environmental quality. In the present study attempt has been made to study culturable bacteria in soil and its relation with soil parameters such as electrical conductivity, pH, and percentage of organic compound and total nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur, calcium, magnesium and potassium. Soil samples were found to be of neutral pH, low salinity, high nitrogen, low organic carbon, range of phosphorus and potassium from medium to high. Site LP2 showed maximum number of bacterial colonies. Potassium content in soil was found to be high.
