Abstract


In the present study efforts has been made to assess the extent of water pollution due to the excess use of fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture and its impact on ground water quality of three different dug wells in Dholpur district of Rajasthan, India. The different Physico chemical parameters like pH, Temperature, TDS, Conductivity, Nitrate, Sulphate, Dissolved oxygen Hardness, sodium, Potassium, Chlorides and chemical oxygen Demand were determined. The present study reveals that water quality of the selected sampling station is within the limit prescribed by WHO and can be used for domestic purpose.
