The new six herbicidal N-[(pyrimidin-2-yl)aminocarbonyl]-2-substituted-6-(1-hydroxy-2-fluoroethyl)benzenesulfonamide derivatives(S) were synthesized and rate constants for the hydrolysis of thier in the range of pH $1.0{\sim}10.0$ have been studied in 15%(v/v) aqueous acetonitrile solution at $45^{\circ}C$. From the basis of the results, pH-effect, solvent effect, ortho-substituent effect, thermodynamic parameters(${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ & ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$), pKa constant(4.80), rate equation, analysis of hydrolysis products(2-(1-hydroxy-2-fluoroethyl)benzenesulfonamide & 4,6-dimethoxyaminopyrimidine), it may be concluded that the general acid catalyzed hydrolysis through $A-S_E2$ mechanism and specific acid catalyzed hydrolysis through A-2 type(or $A_{AC}2$) mechanism proceeds via conjugate acid($SH^+$) and tetrahedral intermediate(I) below pH 8.0, whereas, above pH 9.0, the general base catalyzed hydrolysis by water molecules(B) through $(E_1)_{anion}$ mechanism proceeds via conjugate base(CB). In the range between $pH\;7.0{\sim}pH\;9.0$, these two reactions occur competitively.

In the study, the log pricing process by region and marketing agencies was surveyed in order to analyze the domestic timber marketing situation, and to propose improvements. The results obtained show that the market channel configuration for domestic timber is simple compared with that for the agricultural products. The log felling contractor is the lead agency in the stumpage market because of the lack of market information of most forest owners. However, the log assembler, who has ample funds, seized leadership in the market channel because most felling contractors, deal only with small timber quantities, and are usually short of funds. Also the variety of log scaling methods is a serious factor confusing domestic timber marketing. Therefore, the following steps are proposed; 1) the provision of market information to forest owners, 2) the institutional control of felling contractors, 3) the establishment of cooperative log collection centers, 4) the improvement of log quality.

New directions on rural policy have been discussed due to the domestic and international environmental changes such as the price degradation of agricultural products, maintenance of rural landscape, and so on. Development of amenity in rural areas has been come out as the one of new policy directions. Amenity defines as, in a very broad way, the public benefits accruing from the condition of a place, such as aesthetic beauty, clean air and water, or good street lighting. Amenity in rural area is referred as a resource with a potential possibility for development. Among them rural landscape is regarded as the one of major resources. In Jeju, particularly, stone wall retains the most esthetic landscape in rural regions. In addition, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism appointed stone wall as the one of important components in rural landscape and one of the 100 national historic symbols. Stone wall in Jeju has its intrinsic and real value and is widespread in rural regions. However, in spite of it's popularity, the landscape of stone wall has been degraded without any concerns and has been partly destroyed. Landscape of stonewall should be maintained and the depth of concerns and systematic management measures for protection should be discussed. In this sense, the purpose of this paper, first of all, is to examine the status of stone wall and to evaluate the landscape of stone wall in Jeju. GIS is used as an analysis tool. Several areas such as Hankyung, Namyeup, and so on in Jeju are selected as the case areas for this study.

Synthesis and Biological activity test are described for the (E)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate and (Z)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate, the sex pheromone of the Asiatic leafroller moth (Archippus breviplicanus Walsingham). 10-Bromodecan-1-ol THP ether was prepared from 10-bromodecan-1-ol. In liquid ammonia with THF and HMPA as cosolvents, sodium acetylide could be alkylated with 10-bromodecan-1-al THP ether to give 11-dodecyn-1-ol THP ether. 11-Dodecyn-1-ol THP ether was then treated with n-Buli in THF to give the lithium acetylide, which was alkylated with bromoethane to afford 11-tetradecyn-1-ol THP ether. 11-Tetradecyn-1-ol THP ether was then reduced over $Pd/BaSO_4$ and with Na in liquid $NH_3$ to give (Z)-11-tetradecen-1-ol THP ether and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-ol THP ether, respectively. (Z)-and (E)-11-Tetradecen-1-ol THP ether thus obtained were deprotected by refluxing in the presence of PPTS and ethanol. (Z)-and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-ol were acetylated with acetic anhydride to afford the final products, (Z)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate (1) and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate (2), respectively. The synthetic pheromone thus obtained was attractive to the males of the Asiatic leafroller moth in the field.

To raise the added value of the fruits of Cudrania tricuspidata, Cudrania tricuspidata vinegar was produced and examined for its fermentation conditions. Forty nine acetic acid bacteria with resistance against acetic acid, ethanol, and sulfide as high acetic acid producers were isolated from fermented foods and identified as Acetobacter indonesiensis, A. cerevisiae, A. orientalis, A. tropicalis, A. fabarum, A. pasteurianus, and A. syzygii based on the results of the analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences. Among them, two GRAS strains, A. pasteurianus SCMA5 and SCMA6, were finally selected for the production of acetic acid. Optimal vinegar productions were obtained from the medium containing 40% (v/v) fruit juice of Cudrania tricuspidata and 5% (v/v) ethanol at $25^{\circ}C$ for 72 hr. The sensory panel preferred the vinegar fermented with the SCMA06 to that with the SCM05 strain. The radical scavenger capacity of DPPH was 53% higher than that of the control in the vinegar fermented with the SCMA06 strain. The ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor activity as an index of the antidiabetic drug showed 91% inhibition, which is higher than that of acabose. This study will be helpful for the scale-up production of vinegar with the fruit of Cudrania tricuspidata.

In South Korea, paddy rice has been consumed over the entire region and it is the main source of income for farmers, thus mathematical model for the estimation of rice yield is required for such decision-making processes in agriculture. The objectives of our study are to: (1) develop rice yield estimation model using Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN), (2) choose hyper-parameters for the model which show the best performance and (3) investigate whether CNN model can effectively predict the rice yield by the comparison with the model using Artificial Neural Networks(ANN). Weather and MODIS(The MOderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) products from April to September in year 2000~2013 were used for the rice yield estimation models and cross-validation was implemented for the accuracy assessment. The CNN and ANN models showed Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) of 36.10kg/10a, 48.61kg/10a based on rice points, respectively and 31.30kg/10a, 39.31kg/10a based on 'Si-Gun-Gu' districts, respectively. The CNN models outperformed ANN models and its possibility of application for the field of rice yield estimation in South Korea was proved.

To establish basic techniques for protoplast fusion of Coriolus versicolor several factors affecting protoplast formation and regeneration were investigated. Protoplast isolation was at maximum with 2.5-day cultured mycelia of C. versicolor treated with the combination of two enzymes, Novozym 234 (10 mg/ml) and cellulase Onozuka R-10 (15 mg/ml), for 3-4.5 hours at $30^{\circ}C.$ As an osmotic stabilizer for stabilizing the protoplast, 0.6 M sucrose was the best for formation and regeneration of the protoplast from the mycelia of the fungus and the regeneration frequency was 3.48%. Protoplast fusion was made by a modified method of Peberdy using PEG (M.W. 4,000). The fusion frequency between two mutants of C. versicolor was 1.86% and the fusion products showed differences in growth rate and colony morphology.

Pulsed electric fields(PEF) technology is one of the latest nonthermal methods of food processing for obtaining safe and minimally processed foods. This technology can be effectively explored for obtaining safe food with minimum effect on nutritional, flavor, rheological and sensory qualities of food products. The process involves the application of high voltage(typically 20 ${\sim}$ 80 kv/cm) to foods placed between two electrodes. The mode of inactivation of microorganism; by PEP processing has been postulated in term; of electric breakdown and electroporation. The extent of destruction of microorganisms in PEF processing depends mainly on the electric field strength of the pulses and treatment time. For each cell types, a specific critical electric field strength and specific critical treatment time are required depending on the cell characteristics and the type and strength of the medium where they have been present. The effect also depends on the types of microorganisms and their phase of growth. A careful combination of processing parameters has to be selected for effective processing. The potential applications of PEF technology are numerous ranging from biotechnology to food preservation. With respect to food processing, it has already been established that, the technology is non-thermal in nature, economical and energy efficient, besides providing minimally processed foods. This article gives a brief overview of this technology for food processing applications.
