Abstract
The numbers of bacteria, with actinomycetes, were found to be significantly correlated with organic matter in field plots treated annually with straw, and straw with phosphate, followed by the ploughed-in crop of each plot. The treatment with straw significantly increased the numbers of microorganisms as well as the organic matter content in the plots during 3 years.Keywords
