Globally, area under organic farming is increasing substantially over the years. There are certain apprehensions regarding microbial load of organically produced and conventionally produced leafy vegetables. The aim of this study was to analyze fresh amaranthus samples for the presence of aerobic mesophilic bacteria and coliforms. The aerobic mesophilic counts ranged between 7.15 – 8.54 log10 CFU/g and 7.83 log10 CFU/g from organic and conventional amaranthus, respectively. The total coliform counts varied from 0 to 7.5 log10 CFU/g and nil in organic and conventional amaranthus, respectively. This study determined no significant differences in aerobic mesophilic bacteria and total coliforms in organic and conventional systems of amaranthus production. Improvement in soil organic carbon (%) was recorded in organic treatments in comparison to inorganic treatment. Not Available |
