Research on the Influence of Soil Structure and Amendments on Surface Water Quality from Cervenia Village, Teleorman County

Abstract

This study is part of a research project on the influence of agro-livestock activities on surface water quality in Teleorman County. The paper presents structure, quality and measures to prevent and combat soil erosion in relation to agro-livestock activities in this area. The research has been done in the whole locality, and took soil samples to determine the type and soil texture and soil supply status with major nutrients (N, P, K). Based on these results and knowing the soil amendaments at Cervenia village level, recommendations were made about avoiding the risks of pollution of surface water by nitrates from agricultural and livestock activities.
