The highest total bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi count was recorded in atrazine @ 1.25 kg ai ha-1 as pre-emergence fbtopramezone @ 25 g ai ha-1 at 20 DAS as post-emergence (T6) which was superior over all other treatments during both the years of study and the lowest was recorded in weedy check. The soil micro flora was not influenced by any herbicides applied but the microbial soil inoculants applied to maize crop influenced the nutrient availability, increase in total bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes in the soil, which ultimately reflected in the yield attributing characters and yield and it confirmed that recommended dose of fertilizers can be reduced by 25 per cent by applying microbial inoculants to maize.
