The aim of this paper was to study the effect of five different waste combinations (C/N 15, C/N 20, C/N 25, C/N 30, and control) of sewage sludge coupled with sawdust and cattle manure in a pilot scale rotary drum reactor, during 20 days of the composting process. Our results showed that C/N 30 possesses a higher temperature regime with higher % reduction in moisture content, total organic carbon, soluble biochemical oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand; and higher % gain in total nitrogen and phosphorus at the end of the composting period implying the total amount of biodegradable organic material is stabilized. In addition, $CO_2$ evolution and oxygen uptake rate decreased during the process, reflecting the stable behavior of the final compost. A Solvita maturity index of 8 indicated that the compost was stable and ready for usage as a soil conditioner. The results indicated that composting can be an alternate technology for the management of sewage sludge disposal.

화학비료 처리구가 한우퇴비 처리구보다 출웅기는 2일, 출사기는 4일정도 빨랐다. 초장은 생육초기에는 화학비료 처리구가 가장 길었으나 생육후기(정식 55일차)에는 한우퇴비 처리구가 화학비료 처리구보다 초장이 길었다. 이는 화학비료 처리구가 한우퇴비 처리구보다 출사기가 빨라 화학비료 처리구의 생장기간이 한우퇴비 처리구보다 짧았기 때문에 나타난 현상으로 보인다. 수확 후 이삭길이는 한우퇴비 시용 처리구에서 가장 길었으며, 이삭 직경, 이삭무게, 백립중의 경우에는 화학비료 처리구와 한우퇴비 시용 처리구가 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 종합적으로 한우퇴비 시용 시 이삭길이의 경우에는 한우퇴비 시용하는 것이 더 길었으며, 이삭무게와 백립중은 화학비료 시용 시와 큰 차이를 보이지 않아 한우퇴비가 화학비료를 대체할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

We investigated the structure of bacterial communities present in livestock manure-based composting processes and evaluated the bacterial succession during the composting processes. Compost samples were derived separately from swine manure, dairy manure and sewage sludge. The structure of the bacterial community was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) using universal eubacterial primers. The genus Bacillus and related genera were mainly detected following the thermophilic composting phase of swine and dairy manure composts, and the members of the phylum Bacteroidetes were mainly detected in the cattle manure waste-based and sewage sludge compost. We recovered and sequenced limited number of the bands; however, the PCR-DGGE analysis showed that predominant diversities during the composting processes were markedly changed. Although PCR-DGGE analysis revealed the presence of different phyla in the early stages of composting, the members of the phylum Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were observed to be one of the predominant phyla after the thermophilic phase.

Livestock manure solid fuel has been studied as a promising domestic energy resource for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in agricultural fields. To successfully commercialize this technology, the environmental facilities require optimization in accordance with domestic environmental standards. In the present study, a computational analysis model of a livestock manure solid fuel boiler system was developed using Aspen Plus^® to investigate nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions and NOx conversion efficiency using urea-based selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR). All data were compared across different livestock species and simulated at various operating temperatures. The simulation showed that NOx emissions were the highest from chicken manure and the lowest from swine manure. However, when converted to an oxygen concentration of 12%, NOx emissions were the highest from cattle manure. Dominant factors influencing NOx emissions through a range of temperatures were analyzed, and the optimal operating temperature range (875-950℃) was derived.

본 연구는 상수원 보호구역 내의 젖소 사육농가에서 발생하는 과잉의 분뇨를 지렁이 먹이로 사용하여 환경친화적 처리방법을 모색하기 위하여 수행하였다. 그 일환으로 지렁이 양식사를 고안하였으며 이 양식시설을 이용하여 지렁이가 우분을 가장 잘 먹을 수 있는 환경을 조사하였다. 또한 이러한 방법에 의해 증식된 지렁이를 닭 먹이로 활용하기 위한 가능성을 탐색하였으며, 지렁이 배설물(분변토)의 특성에 관하여 연구를 수행한 결과, \circled1 지렁이양식 하우스의 겨울철 사육상 기온은 밤과 낮의 기온 차이가 거의 없이 영상의 기온을 유지하였고,여름철에는 낮과 밤 모두 25-28$^{\circ}C$사이로 유지되었다. \circled2 지렁이 양식상의 피복 방법에 따른 우분 소비량은 무피복보다는 밀착피복이 많았고, 간격피복이 파장 많았다. \circled3 우분은 배설후 경과일수가 적고 순수한 우분일 때 섭식량이 많았다. 양식상에서 지렁이의 탈출수는 우분의 경과일수와 상관없이 밀착피복에서 가장 많았고, 간격피복에서는 우분의 경과 일수가 많을수록 탈출수가 많이 나타났다. \circled5 지렁이 치사는 밀착피복에서만 나타났다. \circled6 지렁이의 우분처리 능력은 우분과 분변토의 건물중량 기준으로 51%가 감량되었고, 무기염류는 우분에 대하여 N: 41%, P$_2$ $O_{5}$: 50%, $K_2$O: 60%가 각각 절대량이 감소되었다. \circled7 생체 지렁이를 닭의 사료로 첨가하려면 닭의 체중 600g 이상에서는 가능하나, 450 g 미만인 경우는 닭이 죽는 경우가 있었다. 따라서 상수원 보호구역 내치 소규모 젖소 사육농가에서 발생하는 과잉의 분뇨를 지령이 양식하우스를 설치하여 먹이로 활용하여 처리할 수 있다고 판단된다. 또한 처리 후 동시에 우분을 그 양의 반이상이 감량되면서 퇴비(분변토)로 전환되는 비법이 있을 뿐만 아니라 부영양화 물질을 줄여 수길 오염을 경감하는 효과를 기대 할 수 있을 것이다.

The steady increase in livestock industry has greatly required the stable production of food and forage crops. As an alternative, rice-forage cropping system has been attempted in several southern areas. The present study was performed to understand whether an application of cattle-manure compost affects soil chemical properties and crop productivity in rice-forage cropping system, rice ${\rightarrow}$ summer oat ${\rightarrow}$ rye, in Jangheong county, south Jeolla province from 2013 to 2014. Treatments was composed of control (no compost), CM1 (compost application before rice transplanting), and CM2 (two-times compost application, before rice transplanting and after rice harvest), and inorganic fertilizers (N, P, and K) were equally dressed in all plots. Yields of rice were not significantly different between treatments, however, oat production was 1.25-fold higher in CM1 and CM2. Nutrient uptake amounts of rye were higher in CM2 than CM1 and control. Total nitrogen in soil was maintained stable level during crop cultivation. And soil organic matter contents in all treatments were increased by crop residue. Available P_2O_5$ and exchangeable K were increased by cattle manure application. Therefore, it suggested that the amount of nutrient by forage crop residue should be considered in rice-forage multiple cultivation.

In order to advise how to solve the problems and suggest on the mechanization of beef farm, the facilities and equipment for feeding and supplying water to the animals and transporting manure, and farm machineries of sixty-seven beef cattle farms in western Chungnam Province were surveyed. The results are as follows; 1. The proportions of number of heads per farm for above 70, 50∼70, 30∼50, 10∼30 and below 10 heads were 26, 18, 29, 13 and 13, respectively. The farms with the annual income more than 30 million won are consisted of 67.6% of the farms surveyed which showed to be higher than national average. 2. Only 19% of farms had automatic feeding system. Water was supplied by water cup(45%), opening and shutting water tab(27.6%) and bucket. 3. Cattle manure was transported by manpower (46%) by loader (34%) and by gravitational flow (14%). Most of manure(97%) was composted after treatment of drying or piling up outside. 4. More instruction and education were required because of the insufficient routine checking and fixing for farming machines, and unsystematic education for learning skills. 5. 65% of farms felt unsatisfied about after service(A/S) for their machinery. The main reason why the farmers were not satisfied was that it took too much time to be repaired. 6. When the farms purchased facilities, equipment and machinery, they did not analyze economic value of them and keep a diary. To make effective use of machines, the most available model for purchasing and managing of machines must be developed and applied to various scales of management.

The present study describes an investigation on an epidemic of Tuberculosis (TB) which has been occurred among dairy cattle farms in Jeongeup, Jeollabuk-do since 2007. The investigation was performed in three ways as follows: 1. Collecting information about bovine TB outbreaks using investigation reports, an on-the-spot and tracing-back investigations; 2. Analyzing the outbreak pattern; 3. Establishing hypothesis and performing statistical analysis on potential risk factors. In the early 2000s, TB outbreaks were sporadically reported in beef cattle, and only a small number ($1{\sim}2$) of reactors was confirmed in each of outbreak farms. The number of TB outbreaks has been suddenly increased from 2007, mainly in dairy cattle farms. And these outbreaks were temporarily clustered during the period, from March 2007 to April 2009 (relative risk, RR = 13.7, p < 0.001). And two spatial clusters of which radiuses were 0.3 km (RR = 6.9, p < 0.001) and 0.9 km (RR = 3.6, p < 0.01). The analysis to find risk factors was performed on 99 dairy farms (21 outbreaks), which are located in the most seriously affected village during 2007-2009. Middleman (odds ratio, OR = 47.4, p < 0.05) and raw milk collecting system (OR = 6.9, p < 0.05) were recognized as with the highest association. Considering the fact that all the outbreak farms except one had their own manure composting tank, it might be that the manure containing pathogen was leaked from tank and transmitted to other farms by fomites such as middleman or raw milk collecting system.

This study was conducted to determine the amount of manure production from Holstein dairy cattle raised in bedded pack barn and the appropriate bedding material removal time. Total six heads of dairy cows (about 715 kg weight) were raised in three pens (two heads per pen) for 62 days. Average daily production of manure containing sawdust bedding was 21.2 kg per head and that of manure excluding bedding was 18.7 kg. Moisture content of bedding materials were significantly increased up to 86% of water holding capacity (WHC) of sawdust during the first 30 days. It kept very stable level after 30 to 50 days. Theoretically, 30 days after adding fresh bedding seems to be proper removal time only based on WHC. On the other hand, from a practical perspective, maximum 50 days after adding new bedding would be fine by comprehensively considering various factors such as bedding material purchasing cost, feeding environment and manure treatment.
