The duck-rice forming system is increasingly spread up throughout Korea since 1992. It is discussed the rice field, rice quality, weed and pest management in the duck-rice weeding system compared to conventional farming system. Moreover the optimizing duck population, system management and fertilizer application rate were reported. Energy input and output by duck-rice farming system were carefully compared with those of low input sustainable paddy field and conventional farming paddy field. To find out the environmentally sound function of duck-rice system, the total nitrogen in paddy soil and paddy water, and nitrogen cycle in paddy rice cultivation system were analysed. finally the input and output were calculated, and ecological characteristic were determined in terms of nitrogen balance, labor input, animal input, renewable energy input, turnover of soil organic matter, energy loss, non-renewable indirect and direct energy input. It was concluded duck-rice weeding system could be recommended in terms of net only environmentally sound, but also farmer's income. But there are still some research needs for successful adaption of duck-rice farming to investigate to determine the optimal population of duck in rice paddy field unit, release time of duckling, duck management after release, and strategy for duck marketing and duck processing.

Water and soil properties in paddy fields subjected to organic and conventional farming were characterized over the rice cycle in South Korea. To achieve the goals of this study, we sampled and analyzed soil and water from 24 organic paddy plots and 11 conventional paddy plots in March, May, August, and October 2016. The results were analyzed using statistical analyses, including analysis of variance (ANOVA), cluster analysis, and principal component analysis. The ANOVA results showed that water content (WC), electrical conductivity (EC), organic matter (OM), and available phosphorus ($P_2O_5$) in soil varied significantly (p < 0.01) depending on the farming method. Higher OM, EC, and $P_2O_5$ of soil were observed in the conventional paddies than in the organic paddies. All soil properties, except pH and ammonium, depended on seasonal variation. Cluster analysis revealed that soil properties in May were distinctly separated from those in other seasons mainly due to basal fertilization. The principal component analysis distinguished the soil properties in different seasons, but such a distinction was not observed between the soil properties in organic and conventional paddies. Low contents of WC, OM, and total N were observed in March. High concentrations of nitrate and total P were observed in May, but these were low in August and October. The soils from October were also characterized by high concentrations of EC and $P_2O_5$. These results indicate that the sampling time for soil and water can significantly influence the evaluation of soil properties with different farming methods.

We investigated concentrations and loads of nutrients in the paddy plots with conventional and environmental paddy plots in Chungbuk. Different fertilizers for basa dressing were applied to two paddy plots. There were not significantly different concentrations between two experimental paddy plots because almost same amount of fertilizers were applied to two plots. For drainage water during rainy days mean T-N concentration was lower, but mean T-P concentration was almost identical compared with respective values in flooded water.

The edible paddy straw mushroom Volvariella volvacea (Bull. ex F.) Singer has high nutritional and medicinal values. They are grown on a wide variety of agricultural by-products using different several methods. The result of this present study showed that type of bed and cultivation condition (outdoor/indoor) had effects on the yield of paddy straw mushrooms grown on the spent oyster mushroom sawdust. The treatment of circular compact bed under indoor cultivation condition (CYIC) had the best yield and biological efficiency (B.E.) with 2,119.2 g/bed and 14.5%, respectively, followed by the treatment of conventional bed under outdoor cultivation condition (COOC) with the yield and B.E. of 1,935.5 g/bed and 13.2%, respectively, but the lowest yield and B.E. were observed in the treatment of conventional bed under indoor cultivation condition (COIC) with 1,226.1 g/bed and 8.4%, respectively. Paddy straw mushrooms cultivated on spent oyster mushroom sawdust should be proper in both outdoor and indoor conditions by conventional and circular compact methods as well. However, in indoor conditions, paddy straw mushrooms should be grown in a circular compact bed to ensure the temperature of the bed is suitable for the mushroom growth.

유기농업이 생물 다양성에 미치는 효과가 제한적이라는 일부 회의적인 시각이 있긴 하지만, 유기농업은 토양의 물리적 및 생태학적 특성과 생물 다양성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 받아들여지고 있다. 본 연구는 충청북도 괴산지역에서 유기농업과 관행농업을 시행하는 논과 밭을 대상으로 경작 기간 중 채집된 무척추동물의 종을 분류 동정하여 농법의 차이에 따른 생물 다양성의 변화를 비교 분석하였다. 조사 기간인 2016년 6월부터 10월까지 채집된 총 249종의 무척추동물 중에서, 유기농업을 시행하는 지역의 논과 밭에서는 각각 104종과 108종이 관찰된 반면, 관행농업을 시행하는 논과 밭에서는 각각 84종과 77종이 관찰되어, 산술적으로 관행농업 지역에 비해 유기농업 지역의 종 다양성이 약 20% 높은 것으로 비교되었다. 특히 유기농업의 시행에 따라 곤충류와 거미류의 분류군에서 긍정적인 종 다양성 변화가 관찰되었다. 한편, 유기농업 논에서는 노린재목, 파리목, 벌목, 거미목 등의 분류군이, 그리고 유기농업 밭에서는 노린재목, 딱정벌레목, 거미목 등이 관행농업 지역의 논과 밭에 비해 생물 다양성이 증가하는 것으로 분석되어, 유기농업 시행에 따른 생물 지표종의 선정을 위해서는 향후 이들 분류군에 대한 정밀한 조사가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was intended to develop the system automatically controlling travel direction of combine by means of sensing paddy rows. The control system was composed of three detecting levers having different length, micro-switch, microcomputer and electro-hydraulic control system. Sensor and control system developed was tested to estimate optimum design values and its actual performance as installed in combine. The computer simulation and performance test at simulated and actual field were conducted to test for possibility of practical use. The results of the study arc summarized. as follows: 1. The travel traces of combine hiving the conventional sensor with 2 levers and the new sensor detecting the slope of paddy rows were compared through computer simulation. Turning frequency of combine having new sensor was fewer than that of conventional sensor, but the rate of turning for the combine with new sensor was much greater than that of conventional sensor. 2. As sensor was established behind the tip of divider, the sensor itself well followed paddy rows but the tip of divider did not, resulting in divider being deviated from paddy rows. It was analyzed that the sensor should be attached closer to the tip of divider to have a better performance of the control system. 3. The greater the length of sensor lever for given location of sensor attachment and combine forward speed, the higher sensitivity of turning in control system. Moreover, increasing combine speed resulted in a worse performance of control system following paddy rows. Consequently, it was necessary that an optimum length of sensor attachment and for the range of combine operational speed. 4. Field test of combine installed with the sensor and electro-hydraulic system developed in this study showed that it may be operated smoothly and well behaved to paddy rows to 4th gear of combine speed which was 59cm/s. Consequently. it was concluded that the combine with the guidance control system developed in this study may be successfully used for paddy combining.

To develop a monitoring method for soil microbial communities in rice paddy fields, we used terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) to compare soil bacterial community structure in rice paddy fields experiencing different management practices: organic practices, conventional practices without a winter barley rotation, and conventional practices with a winter barley rotation. Restriction fragment length profiles from soils farmed using organic practices showed very different patterns from those from conventional practices with and without barley rotation. In principal component analyses, restriction fragment profiles in organic practice samples were clearly separated from those in conventional practice samples, while principal component analysis did not show a clear separation for soils farmed using conventional practices with and without barley rotation. The cluster analysis showed that the bacterial species compositions of soils under organic practices were significantly different from those under conventional practices at the 95% level, but soils under conventional practice with and without barley rotation did not significantly differ. Although the loadings from principal component analyses and the Ribosomal DNA Project II databases suggested candidate species important for soils under organic farming practices, it was very difficult to get detailed bacterial species information from terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism. Rank-abundance diagrams and diversity indices showed that restriction fragment peaks under organic farming showed high Pielou's Evenness Index and the reciprocal of Simpson Index suggesting high bacterial diversity in organically farmed soils.

본 연구는 토양의 탄소저장 능력과 관련하여 유기 및 관행 재배에 따른 차이를 비교분석하고, 이를 바탕으로 예측된 토양탄소 저장량에 대한 경제적 가치를 평가하고자 2018년 3월부터 5월 사이에 수행하였다. 전국 6개 지역에서 107개의 유기 및 관행 벼 재배토양을 분석한 결과 부여-I 지역을 제외하고, 나머지 5개 지역(부여-II, 김해, 산청-I, II, 순천)은 유기토양의 탄소 함량이 관행토양 탄소함량보다 높게 나타났다. 이를 바탕으로 토양탄소 저장량을 분석한 결과, 유기토양(36.1 MgC ha^-1)이 관행토양(29.4 MgC ha^-1)보다 약 23 % 많은 토양탄소를 저장한 것으로 나타났다. KOSIS (KOrea Statistical Information Service)의 탄소배출권 가격으로 추정한 유기 및 관행 재배의 단위 면적당 토양탄소 저장량에 대한 경제적 가치는 유기토양 758,100원 ha^-1과 관행토양 617,400원 ha^-1으로 나타났고, 우리나라 전체 논토양의 탄소저장량 가치는 5,281억 원이며, 이 중 친환경논토양의 가치는 367억 원, 관행논토양의 가치는 4,914억 원으로 추정되었다. 우리나라 전체 논토양의 5.7 %인 친환경논토양의 면적을 확대하는 것이 전체 논토양의 탄소저장량 가치를 향상시키는데 효과적이라 판단된다.

유기농 벼 재배에 유리한 지역을 찾고자 재배지역을 산간, 일반농촌 및 도시근교로 달리하여 재배하였을 때 병해충 및 잡초발생량, 벼의 생육과 쌀의 품질을 조사하였다. 재배지역에 상관없이 유기와 관행재배 모든 처리구에서 잎집무늬마름병, 도열병, 혹명나방 및 벼멸구가 발생되었다. 유기재배의 지역별 멸구류 발생 밀도는 20주당 4.4~10 마리이었지만, 관행재배에서는 10.1~19.5 마리로 유기재배보다 높았다. 유기와 관행재배 벼논에서 우점적으로 발생한 잡초는 1년생 잡초인 물달개비 (Monochoria vaginalis)와 여뀌바늘 (Ludwigia prostrata), 다년생 잡초인 알방동사니 (Cyperus difformis)이었다. 지역별로 가장 많은 잡초발생 지역은 도시근교로 유기와 관행재배에서 발생한 잡초의 밀도는 각각 $m^2$ 당 121, 79.2본 이었으며 잡초의 건물중은 각각 $m^2$ 당 50.5, 11.4 g 이었다. 벼 재배지역별 수량은 산간지역이 $2.96Mg\;ha^{-1}$으로 낮았으며 수량이 높은 처리구는 일반농촌과 도시근교의 관행 재배로서 각각 4.56, $4.31Mg\;ha^{-1}$ 이었다. Toyo 식미치는 벼 재배지역별 유의성은 없었으나 영농방법에 의한 유의성은 있는 것으로 나타났다. 산간과 도시근교의 유기농 재배에서의 식미치는 관행재배보다 높았다. 벼 재배지역별 완전립의 비율은 유기재배와 관행재배에서 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 불완전립 비율 또한 재배지역에 따른 유의성은 나타나지 않았고, 불완전립의 비율은 27.2~33.1%이었으며, 이중에서 가장 큰 비율을 차지하는 것은 미숙립과 피해립이었다.
