중규모 벼농가에서의 벼건조 및 저장을 위하여, 한국형 개량곳간(크기: $1.8{\times}2.4m$, 높이 : 3.2m, 규모 : 2-4 M/T)을 개발하였다. 송풍기(0.5마력) 및 공기유도닥트를 부착하여 건조 및 aeration이 가능하도록 하였으며, 저장중 양곡손실을 최소한 줄이기 위해 방서용철망, 환풍창 및 구판들을 설치하였다. 그리고 양곡의 입출고가 용이하도록 내리닫이쪽문을 설치하였다. 개발된 개량곳간을 이용하여 1981년, 1982년, 1983년 가을에 각각 수확한 물벼를 수확즉시 건조하였을 때, 기후조건, 수확시기, 수확시의 수분함량, 풍량, 송풍시간, 곳간내에서의 벼의 높이 등에 따라서 차이는 있으나 상온 통풍에 의하여 벼를 잘 건조할 수 있었다. 그리고 건조조건에 따라서 건조양상은 달랐으나 180~352시간의 건조시간이 소요되었으며, 연속 상온통풍에 의하여 건조된 벼의 품질은 비교적 양호하였다.

Currently, mechanization and automation have been introduced into rice harvest and drying process due to the shortage of man power. After rice cultivars, Chucheong and Milyang #23 were cutted with manual method (H1) or harvested with combine (H2), the threshed grain were dried in natural sun-drying (D1), in natural air in-bin system (D2), or in contineous hot-air drier (D3). We have evaluated grain losses, operation hour, and grain quality on each harvest and drying methods. Shattering loss during harvesting with combine was not dirfered significant from that of manual method, but threshing loss was 1.2% higher in combine harvest than in manual. Operation hours required for combine harvest was 3.5 times faster than for manual, even without head threshing. There was a significant difference bel ween cultivars in harvesting loss, which Milyang #23, a Tongil rice had two times more grain loss than Chucheong, a Japonica rice. Drying hours required to reduce to 14% grain moisture content were ten days for H1D1, 5-9 days for H2 D1, 2-3 days for H2D2, and only 15 hours for H2D3, respectively. In grain quality, complete grain ratio after dehulling was decreased about four percent in H2D3 compared to H1D1. while it was lower in Milyang #23 than in Chucheong, Hot-air drier increased occurence of cracked and broken grain. Combine harvest increased significantly these incomplete grain ratio of :Milyang #23, but not Chucheong.

This study was aimed at predicting the yield of paprika (Capsicum annuum L.) through analyzing the growth characteristics, yield pattern and greenhouse environment. In the greenhouse of the Gyeongnam area (667 m above sea level), the red paprika 'Cupra' and the yellow paprika 'Fiesta' were grown from July 5, 2016 to July 15, 2017. The planting density was $3.66plants/m^2$ and attracted 2 stems. During the cultivation period, the average external radiation of the glasshouse was $14.36MJ/m^2/day$ and the internal average temperature was controlled as $20.1^{\circ}C$. After 42 weeks of planting, the growth rate of 'Cupra' was 7.3 cm/week and that of 'Fiesta' was 6.9 cm/week. The first fruit setting of 'Cupra' appeared at 1.0th node and 'Fiesta' at 2.7th node. The first harvest of 'Fiesta' was 11 weeks after planting and 'Fiesta' was 14 weeks. Comparing the yield per 10 a until the end of the cultivation in July, 'Fiesta' was 19,307 kg, which was 2.4% higher than that of 'Cupra'. And the fruit weight ratio of over 200 g of 'Cupra' was 27.7% which was 7.7% higher than that of 'Fiesta'. The average required days to harvest after fruit setting of 'Cupra' was 72.6 days and 'Fiesta' was 63.8 days. According to the relationship between the average required days to harvest and the cumulative radiation (during from fruit setting to harvest), the more radiation increases the less required days to harvest increases after February. In terms of yield, 'Cupra' increased in yield as the cumulative radiation increased, while 'Fiesta' showed an irregular pattern. Cumulative radiation from fruit setting to harvest was negatively correlated with required days to harvest after February in both cultivars. But in relation to yield, there were difference between 'Cupra' and 'Fiesta'.

To determine the optimum harvesting methods for high yield and quality, harvesting time were tested from 30 to 45 days after heading with five days intervals, using combine, binder and knap-sack type reaper (KSTR) in harvesting machines. Under the consideration of moisture contents of grain, operating time, grain loss, harvesting cost and quality, the optimum time of barley harvesting for mechanization was 35 to 40 days after heading. Combine and binder were recommended as the suitable machines for barley harvest in the operating efficiency and harvesting cost.

This experiment was conducted to find out the optimum date for Combine harvesting of barley in the double cropping paddy field. By the consideration of moisture contents of grain, grain loss, rate of unhulled grain, and discoloring of external plant parts, the optimum date for harvesting was observed to be about 41 days after heading under natural condition. On the other hand, when desiccant was applied on the 34 days after heading, it could be shortened natural harvesting time for 3 days without any yield loss and grain qualities, too.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of precooling in the prolongation of freshness of Tsugaru apple. Tsugaru apple was precooled to 1$^{\circ}C$ by the pressure cooler and stored at 1$^{\circ}C$ and 25$^{\circ}C$. Precooling time was required about 5 to 6 hours for Tsugaru apple that filled in the plastic container and faster than that in the carton. The respiration rate was decreased with the reduction of the product temperature by precooling. Tsugaru apple could store about 9 days and 35 days at room temperature and 1$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Angelica gigas, Astragalus membranaceus and Ligusticum chuanxiong have been grown for a long time in Korea as medicinal crops with underground parts. Its harvesting method has been depended entirely on manual labor. Therefore, harvesting involved much work. This study was to determine an effective mechanized harvesting method for underground parts of some medicinal crops by several machines. Labor time was decreased by 61 percent in Angelica gigas and by 70 percent in Astragalus membranaceus by the use of poclain harvester, however, in Ligusticum chuanxiong was decreased 68 percent by multi - root harvester compared with conventional system (manual harvest). The poclain harvester was suitable for harvesting in Angelica gigas and Astragalus membranaceus plots, but multi - root harvester was not satisfactory. Multi - root harvester appeared to be appropriate harvester for Ligusticum chuanxing.

우리나라 고추 재배는 ha당 총 노동투하시간 2,436 hr 중 수확작업시간은 954 hr으로 총 노동투하시간의 39.2%를 점유하고 있어 수확작업의 생력화를 위해 고추수확작업의 기계화가 절실히 필요하다. 고추 수확의 기계화를 위해 국내 T사에서 자주식 고추 수확기를 개발 중에 있다. 현재 고추를 기계로 채취하게 되면 많은 양의 줄기달린 고추가 유입되므로 수확 후 분리하는 작업에 있어 많은 인력과 시간이 소요되는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 드럼 회전 타입의 2차 탈실부 요인시험 장치를 제작하여 드럼의 회전속도, 드럼과 급치 사이 간격에 대해 요인시험을 수행함으로써 자주식 고추수확기 2차 탈실부의 적정 작업조건을 파악함에 목적을 두었다. 탈실부 요인시험 장치는 급치가 부착된 3개의 드럼 형태의 탈실부와 이송벨트로 구성된다. 공시재료인 고추는 광주광역시 남구 승촌동 소재의 개인농가에서 Plastic 온실로 재배된 '천상' 품종을 사용하였다. 본 요인시험은 드럼의 회전속도(40, 70, 100, 130 rpm)와 드럼과 급치 사이 간격(2, 5, 10 mm)으로 요인을 설정하여 시험을 수행하였다. 시험은 각 요인 당 3반복으로 실시하였으며, 투입되는 시료는 줄기달린 고추를 3가지의 형태로 구분하여 제작하였다. 각 요인에 따라 고추의 탈실률, 손상률에 대해 통계프로그램인 SAS를 이용하여 분석하였다. 드럼의 회전속도에 따른 요인시험결과, 손상 대비 탈실률로 비교했을 때 회전속도 40 rpm에서 탈실률 47.69%, 손상률 8.33%로 성능이 가장 낮았으며, 회전속도 70 rpm에서 탈실률 63.89%, 손상률 12.96%로 성능이 가장 높았다. 드럼과 급치 사이의 간격에 따른 요인시험결과, 간격이 클수록 탈실률 및 손상률이 줄어드는 경향을 보였으며, 5 mm일 때 성능이 가장 높았다. 반복이 있는 이원배치법을 이용하여 분석한 결과, 고추 탈실률과 손상률은 드럼의 회전속도와 드럼과 급치 사이 간격 모두에서 유의차가 발생한다고 나타났다. 요인시험 결과를 종합적으로 고려해 보았을 때, 드럼 회전속도 70 rpm, 드럼과 급치 사이 간격 5 mm에서 가장 높은 성능을 보였다. 고추 탈실률이 낮고, 손상률이 높아 탈실장치로서의 기능에 어려움이 있을 것으로 보이므로 추후 급치 타입의 변경 등 탈실장치의 보완 및 개선이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Low-temperature in-bin paddy drying has been examined to study the limitations of this drying method under Korean weather conditions, the initial moisture content of the paddy, the bulk depth and the airflow rate. The results are reported and discussed with regard to drying time, energy requirements and costs, uniformity in the moisture content of the dried kernels and, finally, the quality of the paddy. The tests carried out during the paddy-drying period in 1981 and 1982 have shown that under Korean weather conditions paddy can be dried to safe storage conditions by continuous aeration with ambient air. Depending upon the initial moisture content of the kernels(19.2%-25.5% w.b.), the bulk depth(1.1-3.5m) and the airflow $(3.0-6.9m^3\;air/m^3\;paddy/min)$ the paddy could be dried within 5 to 17 days. The energy requirements and energy costs are shown to be considerably lower than for conventional high-temperature drying. No significant changes in the quality in terms of milling yield, cracking ratio, acid value and germination were observed.

산업의 발전과 더불어 농업인구는 해마다 감소하고 있으며 농업 연령층은 고령화 현상이 나타나고 있다. 전체 농가인구와 호당 농업인구가 줄어들고 있는데 반해 호당 경지면적은 매년 증가하고 있다. 노동력은 농업생산비의 가장 큰 비중을 차지하고 있고, 농가의 연령층 또한 고령화가 되어가고 있음을 고려해 본다면 농업의 기계화ㆍ자동화의 필요는 절대적이다. 수확은 재배 과정 가운데 노동력, 시간 및 비용이 가장 많이 소요되는 작업이다. 본 연구는 수확용 매니퓰레이터의 개발을 위한 기구학적 분석을 하는 것이다. 구체적인 연구 목적은 매니퓰레이터의 정방향 기구학 및 역방향 분석을 통해 방정식을 구한 후 장치를 작동시켜 반복오차를 측정한 후 이 값을 이론값과 비교하여 검증하도록 하였다.
