This study was designed to find out consumers' behavior towards eco-friendly processed foods and to investigate the relationship between consumers' purchase intention of eco-friendly and organic processed foods, depending on the country of origin. Five hundred consumers were taken from all over the country for an empirical analysis. The results indicate that consumers' satisfaction with a certificate system of eco-friendly products is relatively high. In addition, it is found that consumers give more credit to the safety of domestic organic foods than imported organic foods. The study implies that consumers perceiving the importance of the country of origin are more likely to buy domestic organic foods. Furthermore, the importance of the country of origin and age have a positive relationship with the purchase intention of domestic organic foods.

In this paper, the traceability system for rice which is based on RFID technology is introduced. The traceability system plays an important role in the quality management for rice and rice-related food since this system can provide the information of all food chain (production, treatment, distribution and sales etc.) and more quickly identify the cause of the rice and rice-related accident. The main result of the this paper is the basic structure for the traceability system based on RFID technology. To show the implementation case based on this basic structure, the effectiveness of the traceability system is verified. In addition, the prerequisites condition for effective implementation is proposed.

Fresh-cut agricultural products provide convenience to consumers. However, quality changes or microbial growth can easily occur due to physical changes such as cutting and peeling etc. during processing. Therefore, efforts have been made to develop a functional packaging for extension of shelf life of fresh-cut agricultural products, food etc., and researches on prolongation of storage period have been actively developed. The shelf life is extended by antimicrobial, far infrared rays, air permeability, anti-fogging, weak current, ethylene gas adsorption or decomposition, gas composition changes such as MA (Modified Atmosphere) or CA (Controlled Atmosphere). The method of extending the shelf life by various complex factors. This paper based on the published literature to extend the shelf life of fresh-cut agricultural products, food etc., The paper has summarized the storage period extension packing method, packaging material for shelf life extension and comprehensive evaluation method.

Recently, there has been much research and many attempts to enhance converged information technology services using new technology such as ubiquitous sensor networks (USN) in medical, environmental, industrial, and logistic areas. There has also been much research and various attempts to apply this new technology to agricultural areas. However, applications to the agricultural areas should be considered differently against the same areas such as medical, environmental, industrial, and logistics. Therefore, this paper suggests that an agricultural cultivating management and traceability system. This system is a unified system that supports the processes sowing seeds through selling agricultural products to consumers. Farmers can be provided with an effective calendar for cultivation and weather information in real time as well as the monitoring of the growth of farm products on the farm in real time using this system. Farmers can also control all equipment installed on the farm directly or remotely and the equipment can be controlled automatically when the measured values such as temperature and humidity deviate from the decent criteria which are set by farmers or this system. Additionally, the reliability for and the better quality of the agricultural products can be improved because farmers can use this unified system to cover all processes from sowing seeds to selling to consumers.

Through processors, wholesale markets, intermediate sellers, and retailers, agricultural products have been distributed in a multi-level customary manner for a long time as they are easy to deteriorate and no not have a standardized system of size and quality. However, with the advancement of Internet networks and logistic services during the 2000s that facilitated the development of offline markets, and the rise of the non-contact purchase preference in direct response to COVID-19, previous offline consumers flowed into the online market to purchase agricultural goods. In other words, the volume of online agricultural transactions exploded since the pandemic. Against this social backdrop, this study focused on the difference in distribution costs as a result of converting from conventional offline distribution channels to online channels, and analyzed the reduced distribution costs through a case study of garlic sales on the online platform "H" shopping mall. The analysis found that considerable economic effects occurred, some of the effects being an approximate 39% decrease in distribution cost when comparing direct online transactions of the online shopping mall with other more traditional means, a reduced distribution cost rate of approximately 28%p, and increased profit for farmers.

This study proposes a deep learning algorithm to predict crop yield using GIS (Geographic Information System) to extract soil properties from Soilgrids and soil suitability class maps. The proposed model modified the structure of a published CNN-RNN (Convolutional Neural Network-Recurrent Neural Network) based crop yield prediction model suitable for the domestic crop environment. The existing model has two characteristics. The first is that it replaces the original yield with the average yield of the year, and the second is that it trains the data of the predicted year. The new model uses the original field value to ensure accuracy, and the network structure has been improved so that it can train only with data prior to the year to be predicted. The proposed model predicted the yield per unit area of autumn cabbage for kimchi by region based on weather, soil, soil suitability classes, and yield data from 1980 to 2020. As a result of computing and predicting data for each of the four years from 2018 to 2021, the error amount for the test data set was about 10%, enabling accurate yield prediction, especially in regions with a large proportion of total yield. In addition, both the proposed model and the existing model show that the error gradually decreases as the number of years of training data increases, resulting in improved general-purpose performance as the number of training data increases.

우리나라 농산물 중 최고의 브랜드 가치를 지닌 고려인삼은 최근 국내 외 소비자들의 관심 증가와 홍삼에 대한 인기에 힘입어 국내시장 규모가 1조원대로 성장, 소비자들이 가장 선호하는 건강 기능성 식품으로 자리잡고 있다. 그러나 수삼은 수확 후에 흙이 묻은 채로 바구니 등에 담아 소비시장에서 유통돼 수삼의 선도유지 측면에서 과학적이지 못하다는 평가를 받아왔다. 이런 상황 아래 농촌진흥청 인삼약초가공팀이 "국내 수삼 시장에서의 과학적인 유통"을 이룬다는 기치 아래, 수확 후 선도유지를 통한 소비자 신뢰도 제고 및 기호도를 충족시키고자 수삼 유통시 신선하게 오래 보관이 가능한 '수삼 전용 숨쉬는 포장재'를 개발했다. 농촌진흥청 국립원예특작과학원 인삼특작부 박철웅 부장에게 수삼 전용 숨쉬는 포장재 개발 배경과 특징에 대해 들어보았다.

과학기술의 패러다임은 생명체가 진화하듯 변신한다. 지난 시간을 돌이켜보아 오늘의 모습과 비교해 보면 변화의 폭을 실감할 수 있다. Samuel C. Prescott 박사(Singh, 1997)에 의해 표현된 식품공학(food engineering)이란 용어가 소개된 시기는 1939년경이었다. 초기 식품공학은 농공학에서 농산물의 수확후 작업과 관련하여 식품제조와 식품가공장치에 관한 내용이 주로 다루어졌으며, 이 시기의 특징을 보여주는 대표적인 저서의 예가 Milton E. Parker가 1952년에 저술한 "Elements of Food Engineering"이다. 1950년대와 1960년대에는 화공학의 단위 조작이 도입되어 현재까지 식품공학의 주요 기법으로사용되고 있는바, 건조, 살균, 냉동, 압출 둥의 공정에서 현저한 성과를 보였다(Karel, 1997).(중략)
