Alternativas para la reducción de la contaminación del agua y el aire debido a la agricultura

The main water pollutants from agriculture are nutrients (especially nitrogen and phosphorus from chemical and natural fertilizers), pesticides, saline sediments and organic matter. Livestock and agriculture, the main source of ammonia emissions, are in fact the elements that contribute to air pollution. Forty percent of these emissions are the result of livestock, fertilizers and biomass combustion. The deliberate burning of forest plants for deforestation is also responsible for these pollutants. The information obtained was carried out using the analysis, synthesis and summary technique, with the purpose of informing the reader about the alternatives for reducing water and air pollution due to agriculture. From the above detailed it was determined that the intensification of agriculture has improved in recent years, which has contributed to expand the use of water and has also led to an increase in the hundreds of water pollution, which affects ecosystems and human health. Water pollutants from unsustainable agricultural practices (chemical fertilizers, pesticides, saline sediments and organic matter), represent an extreme danger to human health and the planet's ecosystems. Air pollution from pesticides is promoted through plant applications, which cause air pollution, in addition to herbicide programs and other crop applications. Burning and forest fires that spread from them are the major source of black carbon, a risk to human and environmental health.

Los principales contaminantes del agua procedentes de la agricultura son los nutrientes (sobre todo el nitrógeno y el fósforo de los fertilizantes químicos y naturales), los pesticidas, los sedimentos salinos y la materia orgánica. La ganadería y la agricultura los elementos que favorecen la contaminación del aire, en realidad, son la principal fuente de emisiones de amoníaco. El 40% de esas emisiones son resultado de la ganadería, los fertilizantes y la combustión de biomasa. La quema deliberada de plantas forestales para la deforestación también es responsable de estos contaminantes. La información obtenida fue efectuada mediante la técnica de análisis, síntesis y resumen, con la finalidad de que el lector conozca sobre las alternativas para la reducción de la contaminación del agua y el aire debido a la agricultura. Por lo anteriormente detallado se determinó que la intensificación de la agricultura ha mejorado en los últimos años, lo cual ha contribuido a ampliar el uso del agua y también ha dado lugar a un aumento de los cientos de contaminación del agua, lo que afecta a los ecosistemas y a la salud humana. Los contaminantes del agua procedentes de prácticas agrícolas insostenibles (fertilizantes químicos, pesticidas, sedimentos salinos y materia orgánica), representan un peligro extremo para la salud humana y los ecosistemas del planeta. La contaminación del aire por medio de pesticidas, es fomentada por medio de las aplicaciones que se desarrollan a las plantas siendo estas las causantes de la contaminación del aire, sumando a esto los programas de herbicidas, y otras aplicaciones a los cultivos. Las quemas y los incendios de zonas boscosas que se propagan a partir de ellas son la mayor fuente de carbono negro, un riesgo para la salud humana y medioambiental.
