Abstract

Korea's facility horticulture has developed remarkably in a short period of time. However, in order to secure international competitiveness in response to unfavorable surrounding conditions such as high operating costs and market opening, it is necessary to diagnose the problems of facility horticulture and prepare countermeasures through analysis. The purpose of this study was to analyze the case of leading farmers by introducing information and communication technology (ICT) in hydroponic cultivation agriculture and horticulture, and to examine how agricultural technology utilizing smart farm and big data of facility horticulture contribute to farm productivity. Crop growth information gathering and analysis solutions were developed to analyze the productivity change factors calculated from hydroponics tomato farms and strawberry farms. The results of this study are as follows. The application range of the leaf temperature was verified to be variously utilized such as house ventilation in the facility, opening and closing of the insulation curtain, and determination of the initial watering point and the ending time point. Second, it is necessary to utilize water content information of crop growth. It was confirmed that the crop growth rate information can confirm whether the present state of crops is nutrition or reproduction, and can control the water content artificially according to photosynthesis ability. Third, utilize EC and pH information of crops. Depending on the crop, EC values should be different according to climatic conditions. It was confirmed that the current state of the crops can be confirmed by comparing EC and pH, which are measured from the supplied EC, pH and draining. Based on the results of this study, it can be confirmed that the productivity of smart farm can be affected by how to use the information of measurement growth.

한국의 시설원예는 짧은 기간에 주목할 만큼 발전하였지만, 높은 경영비와 시장개방 등 불리한 주변 여건에 대응하여 국제경쟁력을 확보하기 위해서는 시설원예의 문제점 진단과 분석을 통하여 대응책을 마련하여야 한다. 본 연구는 스마트 팜을 2세대 지능형 스마트 팜으로 발전시키기 위한 목적을 가지고 있다. 이를 위하여 선도사례와 실증사례 연구를 통해 작물 생육 정보의 활용 및 분석 능력이 생산성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 실증사례를 통하여 고찰한다. 정보통신기술(ICT)을 도입한 시설원예 스마트 팜과 빅데이터를 활용한 농업기술이 농가의 생산성에 어떤 기여를 하고 있는지에 대하여 선도농가의 사례를 분석하였다. 이와 함께 작물 생육 정보 수집 및 분석 솔루션을 개발하여 수경재배 토마토 농가에서 산출된 생산성 변화 요인을 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 첫째, 작물 생육 정보 엽온의 활용 필요성이다. 엽온의 활용 범위는 시설 내 하우스 환기, 보온 커튼의 열고 닫음, 최초 관수 시점과 종료 시점 결정 등 다양하게 활용할 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 둘째, 작물 생육 정보 함수율의 활용 필요성이다. 작물 생육 함수율 정보는 작물의 현재 상태가 영양 생장인지, 생식 생장인지를 확인 가능하게 하며, 광합성 능력에 따라 함수율을 인위적으로 조절할 수 있다는 것이 확인되었다. 셋째, 작물의 EC, pH 정보를 활용하는 것이다. 작물에 따라 기후조건에 따라 EC 값을 달리해야 한다. 공급되는 EC, pH와 배액에서 측정되는 EC, pH를 비교하여 현재 작물의 생육 상태를 확인할 수 있다는 것이 확인되었다. 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 스마트 팜의 측정 생육 정보를 어떻게 활용하는가에 따라 생산성에 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
