Abstract: Soil is a natural environment for all kind of microorganisms which plays a major rolein enhancing the plant growth. Among these bacterial organisms promoted the crop yield along with increasing the soil fertility. In the present study soil sample was collected from paddy field of T. Athikarai, Sivagangai district of Tamil Nadu and analysed soil pH, Electrical conductivity and nitrogen contents. Soil bacteria were isolated and identified as Bacillus, Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas species by using biochemical tests carried out in microbiology lab. This study confirmed that the presence of such soil bacteria in paddy field soil are essentially involving in solid waste decomposition and nutrient mobilization in agriculture field.
