2005年，湖北省农村地区排放了6.18万t氨氮、23.93万t化学需氧量、18.73万t总氮和3.24万t总磷，农村地区面源污染的主要排放量已经超过了全省工业污染排放。全省每km2的国土需承担334 kg的氨氮、1 131 kg的化学需氧量、1 011 kg的总氮和175 kg的总磷面源污染负荷。湖北农村地区面源污染的主要特点为水产养殖污染比较严重、畜禽养殖污染过于分散、农村生活污染特别广泛。

In 2005, there were 61 800 t of NH3 N, 239 300 t of COD, 187 300 t of TN and 32 400 t of TP discharged from the rural area in Hubei Province, resulting in the discharged amount of major polluted materials from rural places being higher than that from industrial of the whole province. Therefore, each square kilometer of the land in Hubei Province has to bear pollution loading as high as 334 kg of NH3 H, 1 131 kg of COD, 1 011 kg of TN and 175 kg of TP. The features of non-point pollution in rural Hubei are characterized by heavy fishery pollution, dispersive animal cultivation pollution and extensive living pollution.
