This study is to be surveyed the rural environmental conditions such as housing, water works, sewerage, road and farm road, land utilization, natural conservation and sightseeing, public damage and disaster, and rural water requirement through the 50 villages (10995 home unit) The brief results summarized in this study are as follows. 1.Modernization of rural housing, toilet room and arrangement of dust materials are getting better than before l0yrs. 2.Water works are highly improved but sewerage problem is still in the serious problems. 3.Rood achievement is quite good but farm road is in still insufficiency 4.Utilization of land resources should be maximaized but land conservation is still insufficient condition and farm land is getting polluted. 5.Natural environmental conservation is much more improved but landscape is still insufficient. 6.Public damages such as water pollution, air pollution, and others are getting greater and greater but meteorological damage should be decreased. 7.Watershed condition is getting better and better but because of the large requiriment of the water use for the crops, agricultural water use should be needed much more than before l0yrs.

Rehabilitation and upgrading of the irrigation facilities are usually for the reservoirs, pumping stations, and other facilities in the paddy fields. Changes in food consumption patterns have taken place in Korea and there are growing foreign demands that we open our agricultural products market. In accordance with this situation, farmers are turning increasingly to growing vegetables which provide a high income cash crop. It is necessary to irrigate by pressure through pipe lines in farming facilities and mass production farming. Flood damage occurs as a result of heavy rainfall. The design criteria should be followed to minimize the risk of the flood damage in rehabilitation and upgrading.

This study was conducted in order to find out the basic data and informations for the accidents for repairing of agricultural machines. This study was summarized as fellows : 1. Among the total repair work, the ratio of repair accident was 68.9% and the accident ratio with power tiller, tractor, and combine was 84.8%. The accident occurred frequently in April to May and September to October because of frequent use of machines during this months. The accidents occurred often of ten to eleven and two to three afternoon in a day. 2. The 36.3% of the accident types was farming machines and the 60.4% of the accident occurred in yard of repair shop. The 34.4% of accident was caused by people, 26.2% by machines, 24.9% by environmental factors, and 14.5% by others. 3. In accident damage, human damage was 98.4% and economic damage was 43.6%. There was only 40.2% in having agricultural machinery insurance and 22.5% of research applicant answered that they would not have insurance in the future. 4. The 58.2% of the injured parts occurred in fingers, hands, wrists, or arms and the 74.4% of the damage types were bruise, prick or abrasion. The damaged parts of machinery were belt of power transmission device, chains, sharpened knives, narrow mechanism or cultivating knives for rotary. 5. The average days of medical treatment for casualty was 15.5 days and the average expense of medical treatment per person was 189,200 won. The days of temporary rest and the economic damage per person due to accident were 12.8 days and 469,300 won.

In order to study the disaster of typhoons which hit the Korean peninsula a period of 22 years from 1959 through 1980 was covered to collect necessary data with respect to attack of typhoons and their damage. Centering around the Korean peninsula, typhoons which attacked between 1959 and 1980 were grouped according to their treking routes and damage for detailed analyses. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The average annual damage of typhoons in the Korean peninsula was found to be 1.27 from June to September. The monthly distributions were found to be 53.6% in August, 28.6% in September and 14.2% in July. 2. About an half (56.4%) of the typhoons which hit the Korean peninsula passed through the western coast and 27.3% through the southern and 14.6% through the eastern. Typhoons of the we8tern coast were divided by their treking routes as 25.5% in CWE type (Jul., Aug., Sep.), 14.6% in WE type (Jul., Aug.), 16.3% in W type (Jul.). 3. The minimum SLP averaged 976.6mb and ordere:l by the treking routes as E$_1$$_1$ and CWE types are higher 20mb than S, E or WE types. 4. The Korean peninsula was damaged by all number of the typhoons in WE or S type, by a third at number of its in E or WE and WI type. 5. The annual probabilities of typhoon-disasters were 0.773 for once or more, 0. 409 for twice or more, and 0.091 for three times or more. Hearvy damage experienced in the Korean peninsula are found to have an annual. 6. Amount of the damage by the treking routes in ordered S>WE>CWE>E>W$_1$, and heavy storms experienced in the Xorean peninsula are found to have accompanied the WE and S types during the months of August and September. 7. The average annual damages were found to be 110 at the death-tall, 45, 000 at the sufferers and 10.5 billion at the property damage. 8. Seventy-sex percent of the all damage in the Korean peninsula distributed on the district from the 36th Parallel south and included Chie Ju island.
