Abstract

In several places, agriculture area is the main contributor of Nitrogen and Phosphate existence in water. This research conducted in Bompon Watershed which has agriculture area 90% of the total area. This study aims to measure the amount of Nitrogen and Phosphate losses during May 2018 – May 2019. The calculation of Nitrogen loss is conducted through field sampling, and load calculation. In the period without measurement, daily load were estimated by interpolation between L and Q relation. The result of this research shows that the most dominant amount of nutrient pollution in Bompon watershed are Nitrate and Phosphate with the number reach 6.5 kh NO3-N/day or 1,084 kg NO3-N/month and 103 kg P/day or 883 kg P/month.
