Abstract: Barren soils have insufficient nutrient availability and low microbial activity. resulting in stunted plant growth. Neem oil cake, a nutrient-dense by-product of Azadirachta indica, raise soil fertility and promote beneficial microbes. Overall, neem oil cake also acts as an eco-friendly biofertilizer that enriches barren soils, increased microbial diversity, and supported plant growth in general. In the present paper, the effect of neem oil cake manure amelioration of barren soil, its effect on the growth of Cassia tora, and rhizospheric microbial populations at different concentrations of neem cake in soil, together with soil nutrient status and microbial activity will be reviewed. However, llimited available literature has shown the prominent progress in soil organic carbon, available nitrogen, microbial biomass, and populations of beneficial microbes, that lead to boost in the growth and nutrient uptake in Cassia tora due to soil amelioration with neem oil cake.
