Albania continues the reforms and developed good institutional and regulatory capacities for managing environmental issues. The roles of the public and private sectors need to be considered according the pollution intensity (solid pollution, the potential collapse of water, water contamination from agricultural or industrial pollutants, energy inefficiency, and threats to natural resources. Groundwater contamination by nitrate-nitrogen and eutrophication of surface waters by phosphorus originating from land application of fertilizers and animal manure are well documented in some most populated areas like, Durres, suburb of Tirana, Lushnja, Fier etc. One of the important reasons of soil and water pollution in Albania is the agricultural techniques and animal manures. Soil and water are compounding parts of it are before the risks of pollution presenting problems for the change of environmental equilibrium. Nevertheless the agricultural is always in front of difficulties from the influence of agronomic techniques and the animal rests. Excessive animal manure and fertilizer inputs do cause various environmental problems, related to the accumulation and elevated leaching, runoff of nutrients (N and P) and heavy metal to ground water and surface water. This is particularly true in areas where animal production has been geographically concentrated. Interest in phytase for non ruminant animals takes place in regions, where soil and groundwater pollution due to animal wastes is a serious problem and phosphorus is a major concern.
