Effects of oyster shell powder as a liming material were investigated in an apple orchard. Soil texture of the apple orchard was silty clay loam (Upyeong series with 7% of slope) and topsoil pH was 5.6. Treatments of 1,590 kg oyster shell powder $ha^{-1}$ and calcium-magnesium carbonate as much as oyster shell powder were included in the experiment. With treatments of oyster shell powder and calcium-magnesium carbonate, the length, number and diameter of new branches and the diameter of main, secondary and side branches increased in comparison with control. With oyster shell powder application, soil pH increased from 5.6 to 6.8 at the harvest. In addition, it increased exchangeable Ca from 2.6 to $4.2cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$. But it didn't make any difference in chlorophyll, sugar and malic acid contents. The apple weight per fruit of oyster shell powder application was 9 g more than that of control. Apple yield was highest ($37,000kg\;ha^{-1}$) in the oyster shell powder treatment, and the yield increase was significantly different at 5% level LSD. We concluded that the oyster shell powder can be an alternative of lime and effective to restore soil nutrient balance in apple orchard soil.

본 연구에서는 해안도시(부산광역시 수영구) 지역의 토지이용도와 미기상인자를 고려하여 증발산량을 산정하였으며, 증발산량 변동에 대한 미기상인자의 영향성을 구명하였다. 수영구 지역의 토지이용도와 미기상인자는 2001년 12월부터 2011년 11월에 관측된 일별 자료를 사용하였다. 토지이용도는 불투수(건물, 도로 등) 및 산림(임야), 초지(논밭, 공원 등), 수계(하천, 호수 등) 지역으로 분류하였으며, 4개 지역 특성을 고려한 최적의 추정식을 적용하여 증발산량을 산정하였다. 수영구 지역의 전체 증발산량은 4개 지역에서 산정된 증발산량에 토지이용 비율을 곱하여 구하였다. 연간 증발산량 변동은 1월부터 7월까지 증가하다가 8월부터 12월까지 감소하는 형태를 보였다. 수영구 지역에서 증발산량은 강수량의 약 13.3% 정도이었으며, 이는 연구지역의 72%에 해당하는 불투수 지역에서 배수로를 통한 물의 유출이 강우 발생 후 짧은 시간 동안 다량 발생하였기에 지속적인 증발산이 가능한 잠재수량의 저유량이 적었기 때문이다. 증발산량과 미기상인자 간의 상관분석을 수행하였으며, 증발산량과 이슬점 온도의 상관계수가 0.63으로 가장 높았다. 증발산량에 대한 기온 및 강수량, 순복사 인자의 상관계수는 0.5 이상으로 양의 상관성을, 기압 및 일조시간은 0.5 이상의 음의 상관성을 보였다. 증발산량에 대한 상관계수가 0.5 이상인 미기상인자(이슬점온도와 기온, 순복사, 기압, 강수량)에 대한 회귀 분석을 수행하였다. 이슬점온도와 기온, 순복사, 기압에 대한 증발산량 회귀함수 그래프는 강수의 유무에 따라 2가지 경향을 보였다. 이슬점온도에 따른 증발산량 회귀함수는 강수 발생 시에는 $ET=0.004x+0.7$, 무강수 시에는 $ET=0.25{\times}e^{0.04x}$로 추정되었으며, 결정계수는 각각 0.48과 0.96 정도로서 무강수 시에 높게 나타났다. 기온에 따른 증발산량 회귀함수는 강수 발생 시에는 $ET=0.004x+0.53$, 무강수 시에는 $ET=0.13{\times}e^{0.06x}$로 추정되었으며, 결정계수는 각각 0.39와 0.89 정도로서 무강수 시에 높게 나타났다. 순복사에 따른 증발산량 회귀함수는 강수 발생 시에는 $ET=0.79x+0.49$, 무강수 시에는 $ET=0.22x+0.03$로 추정되었으며, 결정계수는 각각 0.34와 0.89 정도로서 무강수 시에 높게 나타났다. 기압에 따른 증발산량 회귀함수는 강수 발생 시에는 $ET=-0.04x+37.91$, 무강수 시에는 $ET=5.18{\times}10^{22}{\times}e^{-0.05x}$로 추정되었으며, 결정계수는 각각 0.25와 0.45 정도로 나타났다. 강수량에 따른 증발산량 회귀함수는 $ET=0.23lnx+0.90$으로 추정되었으며, 결정계수 0.61정도 나타났다.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of the fertilization levels and oversowing treatment on liveweight gain of glazing cattle, changs of botanical composition, and dry matter(DM) yield in tall fescue dominant mixed pasture during the grazing period. The treatments were T$_1$(low fertilizing; 120-100-100 kg/ha), T$_2$(medium fertilizing; 280-200-200 kg/ha) and T$_3$(medium fertilizing+oversowing). The botanical composition of tail festuce was increased in T$_1$ and that of tall fescue, orchardgrass and pernnial ryegrass in T$_3$ was 30.5%, 23.8% and 24.1%, respectively. The total forage DM yield was the highest in T$_3$, and the average stocking rate (animal unit; AU) per day during the grazing period in T$_1$, T$_2$ and T$_3$ was 2.4 AU. 3.0 Au and 3.3 AU, respectively. The total grazing days (animal unit day; AUD) in T$_3$(664 AUD) was higher than that of T$_1$, and T$_2$. There is no significant difference in average daily liveweight gain per head among the treatments but daily liveweight gain per ha in T$_3$ was higher than that of T$_1$, and T$_2$. The total liveweight gain per ha during the grazing period in T$_1$, T$_2$ and T$_3$ was 601kg. 762kg and 877kg, respectively. The herbage consumption per day per 100kg LW was similer among the treatments but crude protein, P, K and Ca contents in herbage were increased with medium fertilization levels(T$_2$) and with oversowing(T$_3$).

Field studies were conducted from the years 2009 to 2012 in order to determine the cultivation limit as well as to evaluate the characteristics and forage production of warm season grass in Korea. Two bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] cultivars, two bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge) cultivars and a Kleingrass [Panicum coloratum L.] cultivar were compared for forage production and quality in the mid-southern regions of Korea. The experimental design was a randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. The number of days to seedling emergence for bremudagrass and bahiagrass was observed as approximately 12 days and 28 days after seeding, respectively. In Kwangju, the heading dates of bahiagrass and kleingrass were 21 August and 10 July, respectively,. Warm season grass did not winter in the mid-regions (Kimjea, Cheonan) of Korea. All of the Bermudagrass cultivars had higher dry matter (DM) than bahiagrass at the first harvest. The dry matter yield of kleingrass was usually greater than the other entries at all study sites. Peak forage DM production of bermudagrass and bahiagrass cultivars occurred in June and July, respectively. The contents of crude protein (CP) and total digestibility nutrient (TDN) for bermudagrass cultivars were usually greater than the other entries at all study sites. Further, acid detergent fiber (ADF) and in vitro DM digestibility (IVDMD) were similar across all cultivars.

After carrying out on-the-spot observation targeting each farmhouse of large-scale environment-friendly agricultural district (LEAD), Suncheon, Sancheong, Jangheung, Yeongam, Hamyang, Okcheon, and Jeongseon in 2015, only one LEAD, a farmhouse in Jangheung had used sustainable compost coming out under their own non-antibiotic livestock. The soil pH and EC at a depth of 0-20 cm in the seven LEADs were ranged between 5.3-6.6 and $0.4-1.2dS\;m^{-1}$, respectively, with 0.03- 0.27% for T-N concentration, $22-322mg\;kg^{-1}$ for P, and $0.05-0.29mg\;kg^{-1}$, which were, in particular, low a farmhouse in Jeongseon. When intensively surveying on each farmhouse of Suncheon, Jangheung, and Okcheon for a growing period, seasonal soil pH was maintained above 6.0 and high in a farmhouse in Okcheon, with similar soil EC observed among the three LEADs. Seasonal soil T-N was 0.1% higher on the farmhouse in Suncheon than other two LEADs, with higher seasonal soil P observed on the farmhouse in Okcheon and higher soil K in the Jangheung. T-N concentration in rice (Oryza sativa L.) crops was the highest in Jangheung, and concentrations of T-N, P, and K decreased in a season. Plant height and number of tillers per hill were the highest on the farmhouse in Okcheon, where was similar or low plant diameter and SPAD levels compared to other two LEADs. Dry weight (DW) before harvest was ranged between 52-63 g, and DW, rough rice yield (kg), brown rice/rough rice (%), brown rice yield (kg), head rice (%), and broken rice (%) were not significantly different among the three LEADs. Total annual gross production ha-1 was the highest on the farmhouse in Okcheon (16,230,000 won) planting with high class of variety, 'Milky queen' at early maturation, which was expected to be increased on an agricultural income. However, high amount of fertilizer was applied for growing the following crops on the farmhouse in Okcheon, affecting the highest balance of T-N, P, and K more than $200kg\;ha^{-1}$.
