To safeguard and sustainably manage Epe's vital groundwater resources, the following measures are recommended: 1. Agricultural Management: Farmers should be made aware of the magnesium hazard and encouraged to adopt appropriate soil management practices, such as the application of organic amendments, to mitigate potential soil permeability issues. Infrastructure Planning: For any new water supply or irrigation schemes, the use of corrosion-resistant pipes (e.g., PVC) is essential to prevent pipe degradation and water quality deterioration. 2. 3. Sustained Monitoring: A robust and continuous groundwater quality monitoring program is imperative to track any changes, especially the potential escalation of anthropogenic pollution from agricultural and domestic sources.

Groundwater quality is affected by various factors, including geological, climatic, and anthropogenic factors. The region's hydrogeochemical characteristics are complex and need to be understood to develop sustainable groundwater management strategies. There is a need for integrated approaches to address the challenges of groundwater management in the region.
