| Abstract | An experiment was designed to find out if under normal agricultural practices nitrogen fertilizers may pollute water. Nitrogen fertilizers, in the form of nitrate or ammonium, were applied to field plots and sorgham and beets grown. Suction lysimeters were used to sample soil water at the one, four and nine foot depths and surface runoff was sampled. Nitrate, nitrite, and ammonium were determined in these samples.
