Which natural systems could be affected by agricultural runoff from a large heavily tilled farm?
Agricultural runoff from a large heavily tilled farm can significantly impact several natural systems, particularly water bodies such as rivers, lakes, and wetlands. The runoff often carries fertilizers, pesticides, and sediments, leading to nutrient pollution that can cause harmful algal blooms, oxygen depletion, and biodiversity loss in aquatic ecosystems. Additionally, soil erosion from tillage can degrade land quality and contribute to sedimentation in waterways, affecting habitats and water quality downstream. Terrestrial ecosystems can also be disrupted as runoff alters soil chemistry and affects plant and animal communities.
