PROBLEMS-
Agricultural areas have the potential to pollute water in many ways. Runoff from farms carries sediment, nutrients, salts, pesticides, and fertilizers. Both groundwater and surface water can be contaminated with these pollutants.
SOLUTIONS-
Solutions involve finding sustainable ways for the agricultural area to reduce both its dependence on pollutants and the amount of pollutants it produces, and to properly recycle or dispose of pollutants before they contaminate soil, water, or air.
Organic farming avoids the use of pesticides and fertilizers. Efficient irrigation can slow salt buildup in soil and drainage water. Avoiding large concentrations of animals can reduce nutrient pollution, and their waste can be used as fertilizer for crops. Certain cropping methods can reduce the erosion of sediment from the land.
