  1. Plants need phosphates, but too much of anything is harmful.

    Too much phosphates in runoff from fields that have been fertilized causes overgrowth of plants in waterways-eutrophication.  With this the underlayers do not get sunlight so die and then use the O2 in the water to deteriorate and kill the fish and other wildlife in the stream.

    Too much fertilizer will burn plants
