Abstract: Rice is one of the most important food crops of India in term of area, production and consumer preference. India is the second largest producer and consumer of rice in the world. The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of microbial culture on yield and yield attributes of rice and effect on physico-chemical property of post harvest salt affected soil of Muzaffarpur district of Bihar under pot experiment. The experimental design was Randomized Block Design (RBD) having twelve treatments in three replications. The results revealed that the rice responded well to microbial culture and significant improvement was observed in different yield and yield attributes of rice and physico-chemical properties of soil when rice were treated with <em>Azospirillum</em> and Phospho-Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB).
