Product Information
Agrochemicals and agricultural practices have a tremendous impact on environmental quality, and particularly on the quality of water. This book examines principles and practices that minimize the risks of water pollution without reducing the efficiency of agricultural procedures. Practices such as the use of fertilizers, agrochemicals and pest control measures are examined for the ways in which they affect water quality. There is also extensive coverage of runoff and sediment pollution. The text emphasizes the importance of wise land use, and illustrates how water quality models can be used to develop soil management practices.Product Identifiers
