From the view of point of productivity and quality of tea leaf, improvements of the microbial growth activity with degradation of organic matters in tea field soil have been expected. In the present study, the analysis and bacterial community profile of tea field soil treated with organic fertilizer versus compound fertilizer in the same farm in Shizuoka were evaluated. Usage of organic fertilizer improved acidity and water holding capacity of the soil in tea field and changed conditions of soil in tea field to be suitable for microbial viability and as result changed bacterial community profiles. Using microbial calorimetry, growth activity of microbes in tea field soil with degradation of organic matters increased as much as 1.2 times higher compared with that of compound fertilizer.
