Abstract

Animal pollination is an important ecosystem service provided mostly by diverse insect groups such as bees and hover flies. Maintaining agricultural productivity and securing the nutritional balance are closely tied to human wellbeing. This study aimed to estimate the pollination dependent food production in Korean agricultural system. Crop production data were obtained from Korean statistical information service (KOSIS) data of 2015. By implementing pollination dependency, crop production and market price, contribution of insect pollination to crop production increase were estimated from total 71 crops including 12 cereals, 19 fruits, 18 field vegetables, 13 greenhouse vegetables and 9 specialty crops. Mean pollination dependency of all crops were 29.2% and it was higher on fruits, specialty crops and greenhouse vegetables as well, but low (7.5%) in cereal crops. Pollination dependent (PD) production was estimated as 17.8% of total agricultural crop production with the economic value of 6,850 (6,508-7,193) billion won. Especially, PD production of greenhouse vegetables accounted 49.2% followed by fruits of 42.9%. Even specialty crop also showed higher PD production (35.9%). It was obvious that pollination is the vital service for agricultural production as well as nutritional security in Korea. Further protection and enhancing the pollination service were discussed with integrated pollinator-pest management (IPPM) strategies.

동물 화분매개는 대부분 벌과 파리 등의 곤충에 의해서 이루어지는 매우 중요한 생태계 서비스 중 하나이다. 농업생산성의 유지와 영양분의 안정적 공급은 인류 복지의 근간이 된다. 이 연구는 한국 농업에서 화분매개가 식량 생산 증진에 미치는 기능을 평가하였다. 2015년 농업총조사, 농촌진흥청 농업 소득자료집, 기타 시장가격 자료 등의 농작물 재배와 생산액에 대한 자료에 화분매개 의존도를 반영하였다. 12개의 식량작물, 19개 과수, 18개 노지 채소와 13개 시설 채소 그리고 9개의 특용작물 등 71개 작물을 대상으로 한 분석에서, 전체 작물의 화분매개 의존도는 평균 29.2%이었으며, 식량작물이 가장 낮은 7.5%로 나타났다. 화분매개 의존량은 전체 농작물의 17.8%이었으며 그 경제적 가치는 6조 8.5천억원(65.1-71.9천억원)으로 추정되었다. 화분매개 의존 생산량은 시설 과채류에서 49.2%로 가장 높았고 과수가 42%, 특용작물이 35.9%를 차지하였다. 본 연구를 통해 곤충 화분매개는 한국 농업 생산에서 핵심적 과정이며 식량-영양안보적 관점에서 보호증진해야 하는 과정임이 분명해졌다. 농업에서 화분매개자를 보호하고 화분매개서비스를 강화할 수 있는 관리 전략으로 병해충-화분매개 통합관리(IPPM)개념과 추진 전략에 대하여 추가적으로 논의하였다.
