We have investigated cultural circumstance and given condition of king oyster mushroom(Pleurotus eryngii) growing farmer. We collected many pathogens from King oyster mushroom growing farmer and identified with chemicobiological test and microscope. Most of investigated farmers neglected their's growing room cleaning and washing, after harvesting At pin-heading induction time, humidity degree in growing room was kept of high level and Air ventilation volume was so little that fruit-body formation ratio was low. The collected pathogens were twenty eight strains and identified with Pseudomonas sp., Trichoderma sp. mostly. During the spawn running time and pin-heading induction time, contamination by Trichoderma sp. occurred mostly, but during the fruit-body growing time, contamination by Pseudomonas sp., Erwinia sp. etc, occurred.

시설원예의 급속한 증가와 더불어 시설재배에 있어서도 증수, 품질의 향상, 노동력 절감 둥의 관점에서 물관리의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 시설재배 작물의 물관리를 합리적으로 실시하기 위해서는 시설재배에 있어서의 증발산량의 파악이 불가피한데 이에 관한 연구예는 경지의 그것에 비하여 매우 적고, 일부 실측된 예가 있으나 시설환경이나 재배방식 등을 고려하여 정량적으로 파악된 예는 거의 찾아볼수 없으며, 따라서 그것을 구명하는 것은 시설재배 작물의 소비수량 산정에 중요한 자료가 될 수 있을 것이다.(중략)

일반적으로 식물의 공급방법은 채집과 재배로 나눌 수 있으며, 자원식물은 상용화를 위해는 안정적 공급이 선행되어야 하므로 재배를 선호하고 있다. 재배방식은 다시 노지재배, 시설재배, Indoor Farm(식물공장)으로 나눌 수 있으며, 우리나라는 시설재배 중 비닐하우스 활용이 활발한 나라로 평가된다. 노지재배에 비해서는 시설재배가 온/습도 관리에 대해 장점을 가지고 있으며, Indoor Farm(식물공장)은 광량, 광질 및 일조시간까지 전체 생육조건의 조절이 가능하지만 초기투자비용 및 운영비용 등으로 인해 경제성이 낮아 아직까지는 상용되고 있지 않다. 자원식물의 경우 부가가치가 높아지는 후방사업으로 발달할 수 있으나, 화장품, 기능식품 또는 의약품으로 개발하기 위해서는 일정한 품질을 확보하여야 한다. 자원식물 재배 시 특정 성분의 함량을 일정하게 유지하기 위해서는 온/습도, 광량, 광질 등 생육환경을 관리할 수 있는 시설재배가 노지재배에 비해 적합하다. 하지만, 일부 자원식물의 경우에는 위도, 일조량 등으로 인해 국내에서는 시설재배로도 적절한 생육조건을 제공할 수 없어서 상업화하지 못한 경우가 많았다. 이에, (주)넥스트온은 Indoor Farm(식물공장) 전문기업으로서, 기존 자원식물 중 국내에서 시설재배로는 적절한 품질 확보가 불가했던 자원식물 및 특수 생육환경에서만 자생하는 희귀 자원식물의 양산화에 노력하고 있다.

Strawberries are among the leading ready-to-eat agricultural products that have superior taste and nutrition. Thus, consumer concerns about the safety of eating strawberries are growing. To evaluate the contamination levels of strawberries according to their cultivation methods (nutriculture, pesticide-free culture and organic farming) and parts [fruit (flesh), stalk (pedunle) and leaf (calyx)], 1,020 parts of strawberry samples were collected at 12 farms in Nonsan-si and quantitatively or qualitatively examined for the indicators of food safety and food poisoning bacteria. The total aerobic bacteria count in the whole samples was 2.3~6.8 ${\log}_{10}$ CFU/g, and coliform bacteria were detected in 14.2% of the whole samples with a contamination level range of 2.1~4.5 log CFU/g. E. coli were detected in 0.9% of the whole samples with a contamination level range of 2.1~2.8 log CFU/g. The analysis of the bacterial levels according to the cultivation methods showed that the total aerobic bacteria and coliform counts were higher in the strawberries that were grown via organic farming than in those that were grown via nutriculture and pesticide-free culture. However, the E. coli counts of the strawberries that were grown via organic farming and via pesticide-free culture were similar and differed from that of the strawberries that were grown via nutriculture. The analysis of the contamination levels according to the parts of the strawberries showed that the total aerobic bacteria, coliform and E. coli counts of the fruits, stalks and leaves of the strawberries did not significantly differ. Staphylococcus aureus was detected in two organically grown strawberries, but Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes and E. coli O157:H7 were not detected in the whole samples. These results show that the bacterial contamination levels of the strawberries differed based on their cultivation methods. Thus, a suitable method of reducing the bacterial contamination levels of strawberries according to their farming methods is needed.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of closed cultivation and open cultivation method and substrate type on the nutrient ion change pattern and growth of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) 'Scirocco' according to the reuse of drainage in hydroponics. The sowing, transplanting, and application of the closed and open cultivation method were carried out on August 19 and September 16, and October 21, 2021, respectively. As a result of the analysis of nutrients in the drainage, Na⁺ and Cl^- are representative ions that crops do not absorb properly, and as the growth progresses, they are accumulated in the closed method. In addition, since the content of NH₄-N in the drainage is significantly lower than that of NO₃-N, it is thought that NH₄-N is preferentially absorbed rather than NO₃-N due to the ion selectivity of sweet pepper. The growth and fruit characteristics of sweet pepper did not differ significantly between treatments according to the drainage reuse and the type of substrate. In conclusion, if you take care of poor fruiting due to the weakening of power after the middle period in hydroponic cultivation of sweet pepper according to the cultivation method of closed and open, and the substrate type of coir and rock wool, the difference between treatments is not large, so the sweet pepper can be produced by selecting the cultivation methods and substrate types suitable for the conditions of grower. However, as interest in environmental pollution has recently increased, it is judged that there is no need to worry about a decrease in quantity or quality, even if a closed cultivation method is adopted under the assumption that pathogen infection due to drainage reuse is well managed. It is expected that if coir is applied instead of rock wool, which causes a problem of disposal, it will further contribute to the reduction of environmental pollution.

In this study, the morphology and antioxidant content of shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula edodes) cultivated in smart farms and general farms have been compared. With regard to morphology, mushrooms produced in the smart farm system exhibited a slightly thicker and wider pileus and thicker and longer stipe than those in the general farm system. The stipe in the mushrooms from moderate-sized farms was harder, because the low relative humidity of cultivation rooms could induce mushroom tissue to harden. With regard to the antioxidant content, the free radical scavenging activity was evaluated by the DPPH assay. Among the various treatments, hot water extracts of freeze-dried shiitake produced from smart farms exhibited the highest DPPH value of 37.8%. In contrast, the lowest activity of 12.2% was observed in a 70% fermented alcohol extract of shiitake that was dried by hot air. The polyphenol content was higher in hot water extracts than in 70% fermented alcohol extracts. Additionally, the polyphenol content was higher in the freeze-dried samples than in hot-air dried ones. The smart-farm system was preferred over the general cropping system for cultivating shiitake mushrooms, because the antioxidant activity and polyphenol content of mushrooms from the smart-farm system was better; the functionality of this system was more improved than that of the general cropping system, and it enables mushrooms to be cultivated more efficiently. The antioxidant content is represented as the $mean{\pm}SD$ of three replicates. Different letters indicate significant differences among samples, i.e., p<0.05.

The growth, yield and quality of Sedum sarmentosum between soil and hydroponic cultivation were compared to produce high-quality shoots in summer season. The plants were collected from four places in Korea and cultivated in a plastic film house with 50% shading. A 1:1:1 mixtures of sand, upland soil and substrate (N-P-K: 330-220-400 $mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$) was used for soil cultivation, and a nutrient film technique (NFT) with Yamazaki-lettuce nutrient solution used for hydroponics. After 30 days of cultivation, plant height ranged from 18.4 to 21.8 cm and showed no significant difference between soil and hydroponic cultivation. Number of shoot, leaf length, leaf width, number of leaf, fresh weight, and dry weight significantly increased in hydroponics compared to those in soil cultivation. Fresh and dry weights in hydroponics were greater in 'Gunsan' and 'Wando' collections than those in other collections. Stem diameter and compression-force significantly increased in soil cultivation rather than hydroponics with significant differences among collections. However there were no significant differences in shoot bitterness and vitamin C content between cultivation methods or among the collections. Most mineral contents except Fe in hydroponics were higher than those in soil cultivation. K, Na, Zn contents in hydroponics were over 2 times higher than those in soil cultivation.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of solution culture systems on growth and mini-tuber yields of hydroponlcally grown potato (Solanum tuberosun L. cv. Dejima). The growth of stem and foliage at 40 and 60 days after planting were better in aeroponics system than the other systems, and stem length and number of stems per plant at 90 days after planting were the greatest as of 65.4 cm, 7.3 in aeroponics and the lowest as of 49.5 cm, 3.2 in scoria media system. Stolon length was the longest as of 30.4 cm in aeroponics at 90 days after planting, and number of stolons was the greatest as of 10.5 in NFT. Number of mini-tubers per plant at 90 days after planting was 67.1, 62. 5, 20.1 and 18.0 in aeroponics, NFT, perlite and scoria media, respectively. The perlite media system made the fewest enlargement of lenticels of mini-tubers. The results indicate that aeroponic system can be used effectively for mini-tuber potato production.
