Answer:
Chemicals from fertilizers and pesticides make their way into rivers and water bodies and the groundwater like springs and wells from where we draw drinking water. This causes health problems and scarcity of drinking water.
Gases or fumes from fertilizers with nitrogen and animal waste combine in the air and pollute the air. Heavily fertilized fields and livestock waste form ammonia and cause agricultural air pollution.
