Agriculture is the main source of our daily consumed food production. The increasing population is giving rise to various inventions to new agricultural technologies which in turn will increase the production of the crops by increasing the quality and quantity even in a limited available agricultural land. Healthy growth of the plants depends on the nutrition they get from their environment and also the quality of soil they grow in and also the quality of water which is used for their growth. So it is the primary responsibility of the farmer to check on the quality of the soil the crops are growing in so that the plants will grow with all the nutrients they are expected to be contained. If the quality of soil is not healthy then the plants grown in such conditions will have lots of pest infections and also diseases. A concept called Integrated management of the crops is a new approach for the production of the crops, which aims to increase the crop yield and also trying new techniques to minimize the negative impact of the changes in the environment and also by implementing various practices like rotation of the crops, proper selection of the crops suitable for the geographical environment and also carefully selecting the fertilizers and the pesticides.The microbes which are present in the soil in which the plant is growing interact with the plants helping them by exhibiting the process of symbiosis where they provide required nutrients to the plants naturally also control pathogenic attacks on the plants and also helps in stimulating the growth of the plants in a positive manner. These all collective actions have a positive impact on the production of crops. Even when the beneficial impact of these micro-oganisms is known still their direct implementation in agriculture is still limited. This shows that there need to be more research carried out in the field of soil microbiology so that we can increase and multiply these beneficial soil microbes so as to grow more nutritional crops without using chemical fertilizers and pesticides which has a harmful impact on human body. Bacillus genera is the most common microbe who has qualities to benefit the plant growth and also to control many plant diseases. In this review article more focus is on the beneficial role of Bacillus genus microbe, which is present in the soil in the healthy growth of the plants.
