Abstract:
There is a growing need to address groundwater quality on a global scale, particularly in countries that heavily rely on urbanisation and industrialization. This has led to an increased focus on dedicated research efforts. This study aims to examine the impact of urbanisation, industrialization, and irrigation activities on groundwater quality in Rengel District, Tuban Regency, Indonesia. Additionally, the research explores the moderating influence of government support in the context of urbanization, industrialization, irrigation activities, and groundwater quality in Indonesia. Primary data were gathered through surveys conducted with officials from the Ministry of National Development Planning in Indonesia, and the reliability of the data and interrelationships among variables were assessed using SPSS-AMOS. The results suggest that there is a link between urbanisation and irrigation activities and groundwater quality in Indonesia. On the other hand, industrialization seems to have a negative impact on groundwater quality. Furthermore, the study highlights the important role of government support in influencing the connections between urbanisation, industrialization, irrigation activities, and groundwater quality in Indonesia.
