Agricultural Pollution & Environmental Impact
The intensification of agriculture has led to challenges such as soil degradation, water contamination, and greenhouse gas emissions, making sustainable solutions essential. Excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides contributes to nutrient runoff, leading to issues like algal blooms and declining water quality. Livestock farming releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas, while monocropping depletes soil health and biodiversity. Solutions such as precision farming, organic fertilizers, and integrated pest management can help minimize negative consequences. Conservation practices like buffer zones, crop rotation, and afforestation further mitigate environmental damage. Addressing agricultural pollution & environmental impact requires a balance between productivity and sustainability, with policies, research, and farmer education playing key roles in promoting eco-friendly agricultural practices.
