This study was carried out to evaluate the soil dehydrogenase activity and microbial biomass C with soil type and land use in cropland of JeJu region. Soil chemical properties, dehydrogenase activity, and microbial biomass C were analyzed after sampling from upland (50 sites), orchard (50 sites), paddy (30 sites), horticultural facility (30 sites) in March. Average pH values was at 6.3 in upland soil, however soil chemical properties showed a large spatial variations in both orchard and horticultural facility soil. The Zn and Cu contents increased by the continuous application of pig manure compost in some citrus orchard soil. Soil dehydrogenase activity and microbial biomass C were higher in non-volcanic ash than in volcanic ash soil regardless of land use type. Soil dehydrogenase activity was two to four times higher in upland than in the others. It was at 38.7 ug TPF $24^{h-1}g^{-1}$ in non-volcanic ash of upland soil. Microbial biomass C content was very high in horticultural facility soil and it showed at 216.8 $mg\;kg^{-1}$ in non-volcanic ash. Soil dehydrogenase activity showed a positive correlation with organic matter ($r^2$=0.59), Zn ($r^2$=0.65), and Cu ($r^2$=0.66) in non-volcanic ash horticultural facility soil. There was a negative correlation ($r^2$=0.57) between soil organic matter and dehydrogenase activity in volcanic ash upland soil.

Glomalin has important roles in soil aggregation in agricultural lands including controlled horticultural lands. The objective of this study was to measure total glomalin content of soils treated conventional farming system (CFS), conventional farming system without pesticides (CFSWP), and organic farming system (OFS) for strawberry cultivation under greenhouse in Goseong-gun, Korea. The average concentration of total glomalin in the soils was significantly higher in the OFS ($2.00mg\;g^{-1}$) compared to the CFS ($1.68mg\;g^{-1}$). In addition, soil microbial biomass C content was 4.9 times higher in the OFS ($821mg\;kg^{-1}$) compared to the CFS ($169mg\;kg^{-1}$). Nitrogen uptake rate of strawberry was higher in the OFS (52.4%) than that in the CFS (13.0%). Furthermore, yield of strawberry in OFS ($51Mg\;ha^{-1}$) was significantly higher compared to CFS ($35Mg\;ha^{-1}$).

무토양재배에서의 효율적인 관수량 결정은 정확한 증산량에 근거한다. 작물의 생육과 환경과의 관계 분석을 위해서 실제의 재배시스템 전체를 대상으로 하여 증산량을 연속적으로 측정하는 것은 현실적으로 어려우며, 가능하더라도 대규모의 시설이 필요하다. 따라서 작물의 실제 증산량을 위해서 개체 측정 등의 대표치를 이용하는 방법이 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 증산량 측정을 위해서 정량펌프를 이용한 측정 시스템의 구축 및 이 방법을 이용하여 관수량 제어를 위한 환경과 증산량과의 관계를 분석하였다. (중략)

This study was conducted to estimate the effect of nitrogen reduction by applying ryegrass and to determine the relationship between yield and nitrate concentration of soil solution for cucumber cultivation in plastic film house. Nitrogen levels with recovery of ryegrass ($42.3Mg\;ha^{-1}$) was 0, 50, 75, 100 % of 199 kg N $ha^{-1}$ as N recommendation by determining soil EC value. Yield and nitrate concentration in soil solution was investigated during cucumber cultivation. Yields of N treatments applied ryegrass showed 64.3, 70.9, 70.3, and $76.5Mg\;ha^{-1}$, respectively, it could reduce about 25-50% of nitrogen application compared to yield ($68Mg\;ha^{-1}$) of NPK plot applied 199 kg N $ha^{-1}$. Nitrate concentration in soil solution was average 26.0, 30.1, 41.4, $58.5mg\;L^{-1}$ during cucumber cultivation and was related between yield and average nitrate concentration of soil solution following as; $Y=49.3+0.63X+0.0034X^2$ ($R^2=0.778^{**}$). However, it needs to conduct extra-experiment due to high variation of nitrate concentration during cultivation periods.

Double cropping system in a year in Kyoho grapes (Vitis labruscana L.) has currently been attempted in the plastic greenhouse. One of the problems in double cropping system is the promotion of bud break in summer season and shoot fertility. Effects of the control of soil moisture tension near the root zone and treatments of bud dormancy breaking agents on bud breaking in summer were examined to promote the bud break for the second fruiting. The lignification of shoots was induced in July or August by the control of soil moisture tension in root zone environment. The first shoot growth was almost the same as that in common plastic greenhouses. The highest bud break value appeared in the plot of cyanamide chemicals mixed with merit blue as over 75% bud break rate. The bud break rate in the discontinuing plot in irrigation showed significantly higher in bud break than that in the continuing plot in irrigation. Despite of the final high bud break rate, the time of bud break was irregular.

서울 근교의 화훼 농업은 단적으로 말해서 영세성(零細性)을 면치 못한 실정이다. 아직까지 자기 땅을 가지고 농사를 짓는 것이 아니라 대부분의 화훼 농가들은 차지농 형태의 경영으로 말미암아 시설을 제대로 갖추지 못한 간이 하우스에서 꽃을 재배하기 때문에 질이 높은 상품을 생산하지 못하고 저질의 값이 싼 상품을 생산할 뿐만 아니라 한 하우스에서도 재배온도 환경이 다른 것을 소위 만물상(萬物商)식의 많은 종류의 꽃을 재배하기 때문에 병충해의 발생이 많고 방제에도 상당히 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 모든 것을 개선하기 위하여 정부에서는 하우스 시설개선, 토양 소독기, 환경개선 자금을 저리로 융자하여 보다 근대화된 하우스에서 양질의 꽃을 생산할 수 있도록 지원하고 있다.

Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profiles were used to describe differences in soil microbial communities influenced by conventional farming system (CFS), conventional farming system without pesticides (CFSWP), and organic farming system (OFS) for strawberry cultivation in controlled horticultural land. In comparison to the CFS soils, the average soil microbial biomasses of in the OFS soils were approximately 1.2 times for total FAMEs ($195nmol\;g^{-1}$), 1.4 times for total bacteria ($58nmol\;g^{-1}$), 1.5 times for Gram-negative bacteria ($27.3nmol\;g^{-1}$), 1.2 times for Gram-positive bacteria ($26.1nmol\;g^{-1}$), and 1.5 times for actinomycetes ($2.8nmol\;g^{-1}$). The microbial communities of total bacteria (p<0.05) and Gram-negative bacteria (p<0.05) in the OFS and CFSWP soils were significantly higher larger than those in the CFS soils. However, fungal structure was significantly greater in CFS than in OFS and CFSWP (p<0.05). In principal component analyses of soil microbial communities, our findings suggest that actinomycetes should be considered as potential factor responsible for the clear microbial community differentiation observed between OFS and CFS in controlled horticultural land.

Effects of different amounts of fertilizer and manure application on changes of chemical and biological properties of soil were studied in plastic film house. Application amount of fertilizer was determined on the basis of soil test, standard application rate, and conventional rate of farmers. Lettuce in the first and second seasons and spinach in the third season were cultivated. Crop yields were highest in the plot fertilized on the basis of soil test during the three crop seasons. In the third crop season, spinach yield was lower in conventional plot applied with larger amount of pig manure compost than any other treatment. Organic matter, available phosphorus, and exchangeable potassium were accumulated in soil of the conventional plot with successive cropping. There was no difference in the abundance of soil invertebrates among the treatments, but soil enzyme activity was highest in the conventional plot.

Chemical properties of the soils were surveyed in the field of vinyl houses concentrated in the area of Bunpyong-dong and Shinchon-dong of Cheongju, Chilgeum-dong of Chungju and Gageum-myeon of Jungweon-gun. Chungcheongbuk-do province. 1. Content of chemical component of the soil in the vinyl house was higher than in open field. In more than half of the vinyl house soils surveyed, electric conductivity was more than 4.0 mmhos/cm and available phosphate was more than 1,000ppm. 2. Contents of availble phosphate and exchangeable potassium were increased with years of cultivation and their content of accumulation in soil were in the order of Bunpyong-dong>Shinchon-dong>Gageum-myeon>Chilgeum-dong. While their mobility was comparatively low. 3. $NO_3$-N content was remarkably higher in vinyl house soil and the older in cultivation made $NO_3$-N content higher same as the case of available phosphate content. However easy leaching of $NO_3$-N through soil profile is expected due to the fact that $NO_3$-N content was rapidly decreased by removal of polyethylene film cover from the frame of house after harvest of crops. 4. It is a tendency that various chemical contents of vinyl house soils wer higher in 1992 than in 1988~1990, especially much higher from the area of Bunpyong-dong and Shinchon-dong of Cheongju. 5. Salt accumulation in vinyl house soil has been increased with continuing cultivation. Therefore amount of fertilizer application should be controlled in order to avoid salt toxicity, quality deterioration for crop and salt contamination of ground water.

Although phosphogypsum can have profound effects on both the physical and chemical properties of certain soils with supplying the essential elements, no widespread use of by-product phosphogypsum will be made unless such uses pose no threat to the public health and soil contaminations. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of phosphogypsum on the growth of oriental melon and soil properties in plastic film house. Phosphogypsum was treated at the rate of $70kg\;CaO\;10a^{-1}$ and the effects were compared with the treatment of Ca-Mg carbonate. In the treatment of phosphogypsum, early growth of oriental melon was significantly increased comparing to the growth in the Ca-Mg carbonate treatment. Total fruit yield was not different between the treatments of phosphogypsum and Ca-Mg carbonate, but marketable fruit yield was higher in the phosphogypsum treatment. Although Ca and S contents in oriental melon were increased in the phosphogypsum treatment, contents of toxic heavy metals including As, Cd, Cr, Cu, and Pb were not different between the two treatments. Also, soil pH and contents of extractable toxic metals in the soil were not significantly different between the two treatments after the experiment. These results suggest that phosphogypsum can be a valuable substitute for lime materials in high pH soils of plastic film house.
