Abstract
Food grain production to meet the dietary requirement of ever increasing Indian population.

During this present investigation out of total 25 taxa of Cyanophyceae 14 species and 8 families, Chlorophyceae belonging to 10 where, Chlorellaceae represent cladophoraceae 2 species, desmidaceae 1 species, following Oedogoniaceae 1 species Zygnemataceae have been found with 2 species, 2species from Characeae etc.1species from naviculaceae under class of Bacillariophyceae. Cosmarium, species were high, observed during the period of August to October, during these months the water level declined gradually in rice field. It was found that population of algae belongs to above mentioned order were less in number during advent of summer month.
