NEARLY 60 percent of the groundwater at sites monitored throughout China is of poor or extremely poor quality, with excessive amounts of pollutants, according to an annual report by the Ministry of Land and Resources.
Tests at 4,778 sites showed an increase in polluted sites over last year from 57.4 percent to 59.6 percent, the report said.
Excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers on farmland, unfettered industrialization and poor disposal of urban waste have all been blamed for the deterioration in underground water quality.
