This study was conducted to develop a pull-type sprayer which performs the safe spraying with improved ergonomic postures while pesticide spraying of roses in floricultural facilities. The performance of the ergonomically designed sprayer was analyzed with a comparison of a conventional spray method. The pull-type sprayer, consisting of power pump, hose and nozzle parts was designed to manually pull and spray to upward and horizontal directions. From the analysis of postures with the RULA method, the labor load to arm and wrist using the pull-type sprayer was less than that with conventional power sprayer, so that the intensity of labor reduces. Working capacity with pull-type sprayer was two-fold greater than the conventional power sprayer. After performing pesticide spraying with the pull-type sprayer, the operating cost was reduced to \585,000/yr, which is 79% less than that of cost (\2,197,500/yr) for using conventional power sprayer.

Anticipated water scarcity in the first half of this century is one of the most concerned international issues. However, even though the issue has an international impact and world wide monitoring is critical, there are limited number of global estimates at present. In this study, annual water availability was derived from annual runoff estimated by land surface models using Total Runoff Integrating Pathways (TRIP) with 0.5 degree by 0.5 degree longitude/latitude resolution globally. Global distribution of water withdrawal for each sector in the same horizontal spatial resolution was estimated based on country-base statistics of municipal water use, industrial water use, and agricultural intake, using global geographical information system with global distributions of population and irrigated crop land area. The total population under water stress estimated for 1995 corresponded very well with former estimates, however, the number is highly depend on how to assume the ratio how much water from outside of the region can be used for water resources within the region. It suggests the importance of regional studies evaluating the possibility of water intake as well as the validity of the investment for water resources withdrawal facilities.

시가지의 확장과 개발 등으로 인한 도시에서의 강우-유출현상은 자연하천유역에 비하여 더욱 복잡한 양상을 가지며, 실제 유역의 변화로 인하여 모형의 적용이 매우 어려운 편이다. 본 연구에서는 SW 모형과 전문가 시스템을 적용하여 도시화 유역에서의 유출 특성을 파악하였다. 연구 유역으로는 대전광역시에서 노은지역을 선정하였으며, 실제 유역 및 시설자료, 강우, 유출자료와 다양한 강우강도식을 사용하였다. 매개변수의 추정 과정을 위하여 전문가시스템을 사용하였으며, 본 결과들을 통하여 설계 강우의 시간 분포 및 도시화에 따른 도시 유역의 반응 경향을 해석할 수 있었다.

Genetically modified (GM) crops are not permitted to be cultivated in Korea, but can only be imported as food or feed purposes. The import of GM crops has sharply increased in recent years, thus raising concerns with regard to the unintentional escape of these crops during transport and manufacturing as well as the subsequent contamination of local, non-GM plants. Hence, monitoring of GM crops was studied in or outside of grain receiving ports as well as from feed-processing plants in Korea during July 2008. We observed spilled maize grains and established plants primarily in storage facilities that are exposed around the harbors and near transportation routes of the feed-processing areas. Based on the PCR analyses, a total of 17 GM maize plants and 11 seeds were found among the samples. In most cases, the established maize plants found in this study were at the vegetative stage and thus failed to reach the reproductive stage. This study concludes that, in order to prevent a genetic admixture in the local environment for GM crops or seeds, frequent monitoring work and proper action should be taken.

ICT의 발전에 따라 농업 분야에서는 재배시설의 첨단화를 위해 스마트팜 관련 연구가 꾸준히 진행되고 있다. 하지만 현재의 스마트팜은 특정 작물이 아닌 여러 분야에 활용이 가능한 범용 시스템이 대부분을 이루고 있다. 본 논문에서는 버섯재배에 특화된 무균 생육환경 조성이 가능한 환경제어 장치 및 통합제어시스템을 제안하고, 구성되는 시스템의 설계, 제작 및 프로그램을 구현해 재배환경에 대한 시험을 진행하였다. 이를 통해 정밀한 생육환경 유지가 필요한 작물에 최적화된 스마트팜 구축이 가능하다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of manure additives mixed with probiotics and zeolite on harmful gas production generated by pig slurry. A total of 180 crossbred pigs ([Yorkshire × Land race] × Duroc, live weight 70±3.21 kg) were allotted to a completely randomized design with 3 treatments and 3 replications (20 heads per replicate). The treatments consisted of 0% (control), 0.05% (T1), or 1% (T2) of manure additives mixed with probiotics and zeolite. Manure additives were added weekly to pig slurry pits (2 m × 4.5 m × 1.2 m) on a volumetric basis. For ammonia measured at both 10 cm and 90 cm above the pig slurry pit, a statistical significance (p<0.05) was found in probiotics and zeolite-treated manure additives at weeks 1 - 3, except for week 0. In addition, hydrogen sulfide levels measured at 10 cm above the pig slurry pit were not affected by the manure additive at weeks 0 and 1, but showed a significant statistical difference at weeks 2 and 3 (p<0.05). Therefore, supplementing pig slurry with 0.05% and 0.1% manure additives mixed with probiotics and zeolite was found to be effective in reducing environmental pollution in pig facilities.

This study investigated consumers' perception of fruits and vegetables grown in smart farms to stimulate the sale of agricultural products grown in smart farms. To this end, a survey was conducted on 1,050 consumers. The main results are as follows. First, 58.6% of respondents knew about smart farms, and they perceived fruits and vegetables grown in smart farms as more valuable than those grown in conventional facilities. In the detailed values, values of safety and environmental damage reduction were perceived to be of greatest value among five values. Second, as a result of investigating the importance of smart farm cultivation information in comparison with price, the most respondents emphasized both smart farm cultivation information and price information, and smart farm cultivation information was compared with price information. Cases were investigated to be more important with slight differences. Third, 41.4% of respondents had the price premium payment intention for fruit and vegetables grown in smart farms. Fourth, as a result of analyzing variables affecting the premium intention, the higher the health value among five values was recognized and the more important the smart farm cultivation information was, the higher the premium payment intention was.

The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of commercialization of Korean traditional foods for the tourists. In order to develop suitable foods for the tourists, it is needed to identify the various traditional foods, its cooking process, and component parts. The author surveyed various traditional foods in Gyeonggi provinces through field visits and considered the followings: Significance of the foods in local areas and background of taking the foods, production of the foods for the tourists and foreigners, standard cooking process and mass production systems, best quality of foods and management for good qualities, period of circulation of foods, balanced nutritional elements, foods for the well-being concepts, scientific and reasonable inheritance mechanism for the foods, and concept of originality of the foods. For further development of traditional foods for the tourists, the followings should be considered: High quality of foodstuffs, advanced processing technology, marketing network, enforcement of publicity, supporting research institute on traditional foods, and automatic operation of processing facilities. As the result of this study, the following traditional foods in Gyeonggi provinces are recommended for the tourists: kongrungchang-gookbap, Moorutsook-goum, Gamja-boongsaengei, Sookboojaengei-sirudduk, Maemil-chongdduk, Gamja-ongshimi, Oksusu-ongshimi, Maemil-makguksoo, and Kotdung-chigi.

This study was attempted to analyze the causal relationship on the factors influencing the inactivation of urban-rural exchanges. 33 previous studies related to urban-rural exchange in Korea were investigated, and 27 factors were derived in 4 sectors (resources and facilities, contents and programs, human resources and management, legal system and support) by deriving, rearranging, and classifying various influencing factors suggested in previous studies. Based on the derived influencing factors, an expert survey was conducted, and the causal relationship between factors was structured through the DEMATEL method. As a result of the analysis, 'human resources and management' was the factors with the highest prominence and 'legal system and support' was analyzed as factors with a very strong dispatcher character, and other factors were analyzed as having a receiver character. This study is meaningful in that it provided basic information for establishing related policies by structurally analyzing and presenting the necessary influencing factors when implementing an efficient urban-rural exchange project despite several limitations.
