This research was conducted to develop a method to remove the effect of surface temperature of Shingo pears for sugar content measurement. Sugar content was measured by a near-infrared spectrum analysis technique. Reflected spectrum and sugar content of a pear were used for developing regression models. For the model development, reflected spectrums having wavelengths in the range of 654 to 1,052nm were used. To remove the effect of surface temperature, special sample preparation techniques and partial least square (PLS) regression models were proposed and tested. 71 Shingo pears stored in a cold storage, which had 2$^{\circ}C$ inside temperature, were taken out and left in a room temperature for a while. Temperature and reflected spectrum of each pear was measured. To increase the temperature distribution of samples, temperature and reflected spectrum of each pear was measured four times with one hour twenty minutes interval. During the experiment, temperature of pears increased up to 17 $^{\circ}C$. The total number of measured spectrum was 284. Three groups of spectrum data were formed according to temperature distribution. First group had surface temperature of 14$^{\circ}C$ and total number of 51. Second group consisted of the first and the fourth experiment data which contained the minimum and the maximum temperatures. Third group consisted of 155 data with normal temperature-distribution. The rest data set were used for model evaluation. Results shelved that PLS model I, which was developed by using the first data group, was inadequate for measuring sugar content of pears which had different surface temperatures from 14$^{\circ}C$. After temperature compensation, sugar content predictions became close to the measured values. Since using many data which had wide range of surface temperatures, PLS model II and III were able to predict sugar content of pears without additional temperature compensation. PLS model IV, which included the surface temperatures as an independent variable. showed slightly improved performance(R$^2$=0.73). Performance of the model could be enhanced by using samples with more wide range of temperatures and sugar contents.

Mechanization such as machine harvesting, precleaning, drying and cleaning for rapeseed harvested with high moisture content should be accomplished for biodiesel production. In addition, machine drying and cleaning is inevitable in the mechanization of work, just because rice should be transplanted right after harvesting rapeseed in Korea. Particularly, early harvested rapeseed with the combine have high moisture content and undesirable materials such as stalks and stones which make drying-process difficult and lower the efficiency of drying. Therefore, this study was conducted to develop precleaner and cleaner which could remove foreign substances from harvested rapeseeds. The precleaner consists of throw-in hopper, conveyor, feeding hopper, two precleaning sieves and discharging sections. Precleaning capacity was 1,505 kg/hr in shaking frequency of 370 cpm (cycles per minute) and tilt angles of between $5^{\circ}$ and $7^{\circ}$. The efficiency of precleaning was between 90.9% and 91.5%. The cleaner consists of feeding, shaking, blowing, cleaning and discharging sections. Cleaning performance was 435.4kg/hr in the number of rocking motions of 475 cpm and tilt angle of $10^{\circ}$. The ratios of cleaning, foreign substances and loss were 96.5%, 3.5% and 0.2%, respectively.

The existing fruit sorter has the method of tilting tray and extracting fruits by the action of solenoid or springs. In peaches, the most sort processing is supported by man because the sorter make fatal damage to peaches. In order to sustain commodity and quality of peach non-destructive, non-contact and real time based sorter was needed. This study was performed to develop peach sorter using near-infrared spectroscopy in real time and nondestructively. The prototype was developed to decrease internal and external damage of peach caused by the sorter, which had a way of extracting tray with it. To decrease positioning error of measuring sugar contents in peaches, fiber optic with two direction diverged was developed and attached to the prototype. The program for sorting and operating the prototype was developed using visual basic 6.0 language to measure several quality index such as chlorophyll, some defect, sugar contents. The all sorting result was saved to return farmers for being index of good quality production. Using the prototype, program and MLR(multiple linear regression) model, it was possible to estimate sugar content of peaches with the determination coefficient of 0.71 and SEC of 0.42bx using 16 wavelengths. The developed MLR model had determination coefficient of 0.69, and SEP of 0.49bx, it was better result than single point measurement of 1999's. The peach sweetness grading system based on NIR reflectance method, which consists of photodiode-array sensor, quartz-halogen lamp and fiber optic diverged two bundles for transmitting the light and detecting the reflected light, was developed and evaluated. It was possible to predict the soluble solid contents of peaches in real time and nondestructively using the system which had the accuracy of 91 percentage and the capacity of 7,200 peaches per an hour for grading 2 classes by sugar contents. Draining is one of important factors for production peaches having good qualities. The reason why one farm's product belows others could be estimated for bad draining, over-much nitrogen fertilizer, soil characteristics, etc. After this, the report saved by the peach grading system will have to be good materials to farmers for production high quality peaches. They could share the result or compare with others and diagnose their cultural practice.

The cultivation area for domestic cabbage increased by 26.3% from 10,968 ha in 2019 to 13,854 ha in 2020, and among leafy vegetables, the cabbage cultivation area was 62%, and production was 78.9%. Demand for field crop production of cabbage, which has a relatively high-income level compared to rice farming, is increasing, and mechanization of the field operation is urgently needed due to the insufficient development of related farming machinery. In this study, a prototype fabrication and performance test of a tractor-attached cabbage collector was carried out. The transport section was divided into two parts, one for the feeding and transportation and the other for the screening and packaging to selectively collect cabbages in bulk bags or boxes. The length of the primary collecting conveyor was designed to meet the field conditions of the Korean cabbage cultivation standards so that six cultivation rows could be worked simultaneously. Power was controlled by a hydraulic transmission line of the tractor and was easily mounted onto the 3-point hitch links behind the tractor. When the performance was evaluated, the transfer rate, loss rate, damage rate, and work performance were 100, 0, 1.2%, and 1.9 h·10 a^-1. Final improvement and commercialization of the prototype would considerably contribute to the mechanization of harvesting cabbage, the main ingredient of Kimchi.

국내 논 작업의 기계화율은 약 90% 이상 되었지만, 밭 작업의 기계화율은 약 60%이며, 수확작업의 기계화율은 10%내외로 밭 작업의 기계화율의 제고가 필요한 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구는 트랙터 부착 수확작업기 개발을 위한 기초연구로써 마늘, 양파 등 땅속작물수확기의 견인작업에 따른 트랙터 차축의 부하 신호를 측정하고 주행속도에 따른 차축 소요 동력을 분석하였다. 밭 작업용 트랙터 차축의 소요 동력을 측정하기 위하여 휠 센서와 데이터 수집 시스템을 설치하였으며, 두 개의 작업속도에서 견인작업을 수행하며 소요 동력을 계측하였다. 계측한 데이터는 일원 분산분석을 수행하여 트랙터 주행 속도가 차축 소요 동력에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 소요 동력 분석 결과, 트랙터 부착 작업기의 작업속도가 증가할수록 트랙터의 소요 동력이 증가됨을 알 수 있었으며, 트랙터 동력전달시스템의 최적설계를 위해서는 다양한 수확작업에 따른 소요동력 분석이 필요함을 알 수 있다.
