Pesticides may change soil physical, chemical, and microbiological activity (enzyme activities, microbial populations). Limited literature on enzyme-based soil quality monitoring during pesticide application. Existing literature on pesticide effects on soil enzyme activity does not investigate all enzymes. The study examined how carbofuran and paraquat affected soil biochemistry in India. This study utilized traditional strategies to survey the effect of pesticides on soil natural carbon, catalyst movement, and microbial populaces when applied at approved focuses. In particular, the chemicals being scrutinized included amylase, invertase, protease, urease, phosphatase, and dehydrogenase. Complete heterotrophic microbes, organisms, actinomycetes, nitrifying microorganisms, and phosphate solubilizers were measured through spread plate counting. The consequences of this exploration uncovered contrasts in compound action between soil treated with carbofuran and paraquat. Dehydrogenase action was viewed as upgraded by the treatment, while urease action displayed lower levels contrasted with different chemicals. The degrees of soil natural carbon showed variety over the span of the review. Quite, the microbial populaces bit by bit expanded because of their capacity to process and use pesticides as a wellspring of carbon and energy for a brief time. Fundamentally, a p-worth of 0.05 showed eminent qualifications in soil natural carbon, compound action, and microbial numbers. In rundown, this study exhibited that the sort of pesticide, when applied at endorsed field application rates, transiently affects microbial populaces and compound action. Changes in soil microbe populations, activity, and variety may indicate soil fertility and quality
