An important role in their sustainable development, is the retention and recycling of nutrients, especiallyN, P and their compounds. The nutrients in lotic and lentic ecosystems are either due to natural biochemical processesor by human impact of pollution or broadcast process and characterize the ecological status of water bodies and thuscan determine the quality of services provided. A special importance have agro-ecosystems, particularly multifunctionallivestock farms. Pathways by which pollutants (especially nutrients and pesticides, and other pollutants) to reach bodiesof water are different (surface drainage, percolation, etc.).To ensure sustainable development of water resources is necessary for agricultural development to take place in termsof minimizing waste streams and not affect the production and support of NC. %K natural capital / agro-ecosystems / nutrient retention / sustainable development of lotic ecosystems %U http://afst.valahia.ro/docs/issues/2010/issue%201/2010-2-1-Diaconu%20Tatiana.pdf
