Answer:

B. It can cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers

Poor use of fertilizers in Agriculture can affect the environment because they cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers.

Pollution is the introduction of filth or unwanted materials into the environment.

  • Rain water usually during a down pour can wash them off into surrounding water bodies.
  • They can also even infiltrate into the ground water systems.
  • On getting into the rivers and lakes the alter the chemical balance and lead to severe pollution.
  • One of such is eutrophication.

So, poorly applied fertilizers can cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers.
