Fertilizer use. Fertilizer application generates greenhouse emissions through N2O but also generates adverse impacts in case of leaching and run-off in river streams, including eutrophication in water pools. Nitrogen pollution thereby includes most importantly nitrate leaching to groundwater and surface waters, air pollution by ammonia and nitrous oxide as greenhouse gas (the latter will be discussed in the section on climate change). As climate change affects crop productivity, farmers will need to adapt their practices to accommodate or compensate for the effects on yields.
Fertilizer use. For ecological reasons, turf management chemicals will not be used on naturalized plantings except as directed by a native landscape restoration specialist.
