Abstract

Paddy fields are apparently nonpoint source pollution and influence water environment. In order to improve water quality in rivers or lakes, to low nutrient load from paddy fields are required. To establish comprehensive plan to control agricultural non-point source pollution, it is imperative to get a quantitative evaluation on pollutants and pollution load from paddy fields. A field monitoring study was carried out to investigate the water balance and losses of nutrients from fields in Sumjin river basin. The size of paddy fields was 115 ha and the fields were irrigated from a pumping station. The observed total nitrogen loads from paddy fields were larger than those of the unit loads determined by Ministry of Environment data (MOE). It is because the nitrogen fertilization level at the studied field was higher than the recommended rate and the high irrigation and subsequent drainage amount. On the contrary, total phosphorus loads were less than those addressed by MOE since phosphorus fertilization level was lower than that of standard level. Therefore, it was found that fertilization, irrigation, and drainage management are key factors to determine nutrient losses from paddy fields. When the runoff losses of nutrients were compared to applied chemical fertilizer, it was found that 42 to 60% of nitrogen lost via runoff while runoff losses of phosphorus account for 1.3 to 7.6% of the total applied amount during the entire year.

본 연구는 1999년 5월부터 2002년까지 광역 논에서 영농기간 동안 비점원오염의 유출부하량을 산정하기 위하여 수행되었다. 시험유역은 전북 남원시 금지면 금풍지구에 위치한 115 ha(논 면적 95 ha)의 양수장 관개 논에서 수문 및 수질 모니터링을 실시하였다. 시험유역의 물수지를 산정한 결과, 연도별 유입량은 1999년 2,410 mm, 2000년 2,486 mm, 2001년 2,938 mm, 2002년 2,880 mm로 4개년 평균 유입량은 2,680 mm로 조사되었으며, 유출량은 1999년 2,416 mm, 2000년 2,533 mm, 2001년 3,070 mm, 2002년 2,983 mm로 4개년 평균 유출량은 2,750 mm로 조사되었다. 물수지에 있어 유출량이 유입량보다 크게 나타났는데, 이는 양수장에서 관개를 실시하지 않을 경우 지하수 관개를 실시하는 논들이 있어 이들 지하수 관개량의 미측정에 의해 물수지의 차이가 있는 것으로 판단된다. T-N과 T-P를 대상으로 4개년동안 물질수지를 조사한 결과, 영농기간 영양물질의 평균 유입량은 화학비료에 의해 T-N $124.8kg\;ha^{-1}$, T-P $15.8kg\;ha^{-1}$, 강우에 의해 T-N $26.9kg\;ha^{-1}$, T-P $0.35kg\;ha^{-1}$, 관개수에 의해 T-N $50.4kg\;ha^{-1}$, T-P $0.48kg\;ha^{-1}$가 유입된 것으로 조사되었다. 영농기간 동안 유출수에 의한 영양물질의 유출량은 T-N의 경우 $53.4{\sim}68.3kg\;ha^{-1}$, T-P의 경우는 $1.38{\sim}2.20kg\;ha^{-1}$로 나타났다. 논에서 적절한 물관리를 통해 유출수를 최소화하면 영양물질 손실의 경감, 농업용수 사용의 경감을 통한 수자원 확보, 그리고 하천의 수질보전에 기여할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 비점원오염에 관한 연구는 다양한 영농조건에 대해 장기적이고 꾸준한 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
