The concept of best management practices (BMP) originating from the USA has already been introduced with the aim to reduce the application of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and water and soil loss. However, a comprehensive evaluation of rural wastewater and nutrient reutilization to benefit the rural communities and the environment has not been attempted. To fill this gap, this review paper explores the major contributors of RNPS water pollution in Hubei Province, assesses the status of watercourses and discusses the prevalent ecological engineering techniques including vegetated filter strips (VFS), ecological ditches (ED), constructed wetlands (CW), and biogas plants (BP) with respect to aspects such as water purification, energy generation, and nutrient reduction and recirculation. Findings indicate that RNPS water pollution continuously increased for the past 10years. Chemical fertilizers, poultry and livestock breeding, aquaculture, and rural living are the major sources of elevated chemical oxygen demand, ammonia-nitrogen, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus loads discharged to receiving watercourses. Finally, ecological engineering technologies such as VFS, ED, CW, and BP are proposed for villages and communities to combat RNPS water pollution. BMP are a promising approach to create a sustainable agricultural system, improve the rural energy consumption structure and living conditions, decrease wastewater discharges, and reduce chemical fertilizer application rate.
