What Does AGNPS Stand For?

AGNPS stands for Agricultural Non Point Source Pollution

AGNPS, or Agricultural Non Point Source Pollution, refers to the contamination of water bodies resulting from agricultural activities that do not originate from a single, identifiable source. Instead, pollutants such as fertilizers, pesticides, and sediments are dispersed across landscapes, contributing to water quality degradation through processes like runoff and soil erosion. AGNPS emphasizes the need for effective management practices to minimize environmental impact and protect water resources while promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
