It should evaluate in brining existing organisms and taken in the water use up of oxygen that is left back with excess fertilizer.

  • Chemical fertilizers are useful to crops in getting high yield.

  • But fertilizers contaminate the soil with impurities.

  • For examples, arsenic lead and cadmium present in traces in rock phosphate mineral get transferred to super phosphate fertilizer.

  • Since these materials are not degradable, their accumulation in the soil leads to poison of crops.

  • The over use of NPK fertilizers reduce quality of vegetables.

  • And crops grown in soil over the years.

  • It also reduces the protein content of wheat, maize,grains etc...

  • Excess potassium content in the soil decreases vitamin 'C' and carotene content in vegetables and fruits.

  • The vegetables and fruits grown over chemically fertilized soil are more prone to attacks by insects and diseases.

  • Hence over use of fertilizers, pollute the environment.
