ABSTRACT
A field experiment was carried out on wetlands of AC & RI, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, under long term organic manurial trial, during rabi season. The plots were enriched with variety of organic manures in different treatments. The microbial population such as bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes, were enumerated from the soil samples of rice field at different stages of crop. Microbial population differed significantly due to incorporation of green manure and manures application in the field soil samples.
