Fertilizers contribute to the variety, abundance, and low cost of food stuffs available to the public. However, fertilizer misuse can lower air, soil, and water quality. Regulators are scrutinizing fertilizers now more than ever because of their impact on the environment. This book provides an analysis of perchlorate in highly dissolved solid matrices and health issues of trace metals in fertilizers. This book focuses on nutrient impacts to water and the environment. Contributors include state and federal regulators, industry professionals, environmental consultants, and those in academia.

Excerpt from Fertilizer Use and Water Quality This publication evaluates the role of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers in water pollution and summarizes the research on the complex relations between nutrient inputs and outputs. Available data do not often permit making valid estimates of nutrient transfer from fertilizers to ground and surface waters. A reliable basis for evaluating the effects of fertilizers on water quality requires quantitative measurements of water inputs and behavior in agricultural watershed studies that encompass appropriate ranges in climatic and management conditions. When virgin soils in the United States were first cultivated, many were rich in organic matter and plant nutrients. These soils provided far more nitrogen than the crops could use, and losses by leaching to water bodies or by denitrification to the atmosphere were large. As a result of cultivation, these natural supplies gradually diminished. By 1969, the use of almost 7 million tons of fertilizer nitrogen a year, as well as improved land use and management practices, was still not enough to compensate for the large yearly drop in the capacity of the soil to supply nitrogen.

Agricultural operations can contribute to water quality deterioration through the release of several materials into water: sediments, pesticides, animal manures, fertilizers and other sources of inorganic and organic matter. This ''guidelines'' document on control and management of agricultural water pollution has the objectives of delineating the nature and consequences of agricultural impacts on water quality, and of providing a framework for practical measures to be undertaken by relevant professionals and decision-makers to control water pollution.
