Article Synopsis
- Groundwater aquifers are being depleted unsustainably due to factors like population growth and climate change, prompting the need for managed aquifer recharge (MAR) to replenish them.
- The use of agricultural managed aquifer recharge (Ag-MAR) raises concerns about the leaching of pesticides into groundwater, especially in areas with varying soil textures.
- This study reveals that sandy soils lead to faster water and pesticide transport, while also indicating that certain practices can mitigate leaching risks and enhance groundwater recharge.
