About The Book

Agricultural pollution refers to biotic and biotic byproducts of farming practices that result in contamination or degradation of the environment and surrounding ecosystems, and/or cause injury to humans and their economic interests. Agricultural operations can contribute to water quality deterioration through the release of several materials into water, sediments, pesticides, animal manure, fertilizers and other sources of inorganic and organic matter. Early identification and emphasis on cost-effective BMPs can substantially reduce project costs and may make a project economically justifiable that would not otherwise be so However, modern agricultural practices have started the process of agricultural pollution. This process causes the degradation of the eco-system, land and environment due to the modern day by-products of agriculture. This book provide a frame work for practical measures to be undertaken by relevant professionals and decision makers to control water pollution. This book is highly useful to students, teachers, researchers and scientists engaged in the field of environmental sciences, environmental engineering, water pollution and agriculture
