The worldwide increase in both environmental damage and human population has resulted in the unfortunate consequence of insufficient global food availability required to feed all of the world’s people. It is imperative to significantly increase agricultural productivity to satisfy the world hunger. With such an intention, agricultural technologies are moving towards creating a more sustainable and environment friendly methods. This involves employing transgenic plants and plant growth aiding bacteria as a part of agricultural farming. In this article, we have discussed the plant growth facilitating microorganisms, which are the soil bacteria found to colonize plant roots, thereby facilitating nutrient uptake and availability. The benefit of such microbes for agriculture, their importance and more importantly their acceptance by agricultural community is reviewed with reference to future trend. The development of plant growth microorganism practice is expected to replace the usage of chemicals for agricultural purpose. A class of soil microorganism beneficial to plant growth, referred as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR,) is also reviewed for their capacity of promoting plant growth and their potential for economic agricultural production.
