The two agricultural practices that can lead to algal blooms are:
1. **Animal waste accumulated in livestock production**
2. **Application of nutrients to crops**
Both practices can introduce excess nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, into water bodies, promoting the growth of algae and potentially leading to harmful algal blooms.
