“…In irrigated and low lands, which are prone to waterlogging, the discharge planting method (Figure 8, 9) is useful (Donnan, 1947; Dash et al, 2005). In HRZs, application of vegetative buffer strips is also effective for controlling runoff quantity and quality (Borin et al, 2010; Kavian et al, 2018; Saleh et al, 2018). Vegetative buffer strips have also been proposed as one of the best management or conservation practices to protect water bodies from nutrients, antibiotics, bacteria and pesticides applied on adjacent agricultural fields (Muñoz-Carpena et al, 2010; Lin et al, 2011; Lerch et al, 2017; Muñoz-Carpena et al, 2018).…”
