Changes of chemical component and losses of chemical fertilizer by infiltration water from 0.5ha of paddy field in Chinan area of Chonbuk province during the rice cultivation were investigated. The infiltration water samples were collected in a ceramic porous cup which was a buried at the 30, 50, 70, 90㎝ of soil depth. pH of infiltration water ranged $6.64{\sim}7.90$ and EC showed $324{\sim}647{\mu}$S/cm. The content of total-N, $NH_4-N$ and $NO_3-N$ were $0.58{\sim}14.59$, $0.05{\sim}4.25$, and $0.15{\sim}7.71mg/L$ respectively. The content of total-P and ortho-P were $0.009{\sim}0.077mg/L$ and $0{\sim}0.029mg/L$ The content of $Ca^{++}$, $Mg^{++}$, $Na^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ showed $0.88{\sim}4.78$, $0.22{\sim}1.04$, $0.17{\sim}0.98$, and $0.84{\sim}3.19㎎/L$. These all at the first transplanting are higher than that of other periods. The content of $SO_4^{2-}$ showed $3.92{\sim}18.72mg/L$ and decreased with a soil depth. However $Cl^-$ of infiltration water ranged $9.03{\sim}19.97mg/L$ and no difference with a soil depth. When infiltrated $2,416.5m^{3}$ of an infiltration water from 0.5ha of paddy field during the rice cultivation, losses of chemical components were 20.34㎏/㏊ of total-N, 3.54㎏/㏊ of $NH_4-N$, 10.44㎏/㏊ of $NO_3-N$, 0.16㎏/㏊ of total-P and 0.028㎏/㏊ of ortho-P. Also $Ca^{++}$, $Mg^{++}$, $Na^+$, $K^+$, $SO_4^{2-}$ and $Cl^-$ were lost 10.24, 2.84, 2.84, 7.22, 50.04 and 62.20㎏/㏊ respectively. There were lost by infiltration water 9.35% of nitrogen, 0.59% of phosphorous and 22.79% of potassium in applied chemical fertilizer.
