Farming, Fertilizers and the Nitrate Problem - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

The excessive use of fertilizers in agriculture is generally assumed to be a major cause of nitrate pollution. Nitrates may leak through the soil and occur in excess levels in drinking water. The authors of this book provide a detailed scientific analysis of this controversial issue. They review the evidence which shows that limiting fertilizer use is an over-simplistic solution to the problem. Changing crop production practices to "mop up" excess nitrate may be a better response. The book should be of interest to students, agricultural scientists and those concerned with agriculture, pollution and the environment.
