Summary

The current investigation is designed to illustrate the beneficial effect of different microbial bioformulations on nutrient availability, microbial biomass carbon and key enzymatic activities in a citrus orchard soil. Three different microbial bioformulations namely Biogreen-5, Bioveer and Biosona were arranged in seven different treatments including T1: Biogreen (soil + foliar application); T2: Biogreen (foliar application); T3: Bioveer (soil + foliar application); T4: Bioveer (foliar application); T5: Biosona (soil + foliar application); T6: Biosona (foliar application); T7: Control (water spray). Biogreen when applied as soil and foliar application increased the soil pH by 6.18%, organic carbon by 27.27%, and cationic exchange capacity by 6.24% over control. Like-wise, Biogreen applied
