Abstract: |
Water contamination caused by agricultural source pollution has become more severe in recent years in China. This was not only impacted the ecological protection and but also put the safety of drink water in danger. Therefore, controlling the agricultural non-point and point pollution effectively is of great significance to secure sustainable water use and ecological environment protection.. The European Union (EU) and United States of America (USA) identified the regions which were sensitive to nitrate and phosphorus losses, and based on this developed the region specific nutrient management strategies. Through implement agricultural non-point source control and water pollution prevention practices in the nitrate vulnerable zone, the water contamination has been greatly improved in the EU member. In this study, we analyzed the how the EU countries setup region specific nutrient management practices based on the design of the nitrate vulnerable zones, and draws on the lessons about non-point pollution management from the experience from these countries. The first preliminary results of Nitrate Vulnerable Zones of in China has been showed. We also put forward some targeted advice on pollution prevention and control, aiming at contributing to the agricultural green development and the construction of green ecological environment. |
