| Sumario: | Agriculture is considered the main source of diffuse pollution, being nitrogen and sediments its main environmental impacts. Therefore, an improvement of the current management practices of these areas is crucial. In that sense, this study is focused on the southernmost catchments of the Mar Menor, an area which is under threat due to diffuse export of nitrogen and sediments. Hence, this study evaluates the effectiveness of several best management practices based on Law 3/2020, de recuperación y protección del Mar Menor para el control de las descargas de nitrógeno y sedimentos a la laguna. Results showed that being totally compliant with Law 3/2020 significantly reduce the production of sediments to the lagoon, as well as the surface nitrogen export and nitrate leaching. |
