This study was carried out to elucidate the causes of farmer's disease and greenhouse disease in the rural area of Kyungnam province during 1996. 2,171 (69.1%) of the 3,140 adults above 20 years old who had lived in the selected 20 villages in Uiryong County of Kyungnam Province were selected in order to over both residents who live in the green house distracts and conventional rural area. The results were as follows: 1. Among the subjects, the male was 42.2% and female was 57.6%. The average age for the male was 52.3, 55.6 for the female. 2. The proportion of the farmers in the subjects was 81.5%. Among these 78.0% were engaged in the greenhouse farming. 3. Among the eight symptoms of Nofusho(japanese farmer's comples), lumbago was the most frequently complained and followed by shoulder stiffness and parenthesis of hand or foot. 4. The total score of farmer's disease was evidently higher in the female and the older the score was clearly bigger. 5. The prevalence of Nofusho(Japanese farmer's comples)was 26.8% and 43.15% was for the suspected Nofusho. In the male, the prevalence of Nofusho was 13.6% and 40.9% for the suspected Nofusho and in the female 36.5% and 44.7% were shown, comparatively. 6. According to the multiple classification analysis, sex, age, and occupation were selected as significant variables to explain the total score of Nofusho. 7. The correlations between the total score of Nofusho and the number of sick day, working years, and age were significant, comparatively. 8. According to the multiple classification analysis corolling interaction between independent variables, age was the only variable which was significant in the male and age, pesticide work in the female. 9. The score of greenhouse disease was highest in the group who engaged in greenhouse farming and conventional farming(2.76 for male, 3.77 for female) followed by the group who engaged only in greening house farming(2.66 for male, 3.49 for female) and by the group who engaged only in conventional farming(2.27 for male, 3.05 for female) 10. According to the multiple classification analysis with the total score of greenhouse disease as dependent variable, corolling interaction between independent variables, age and pesticide work were revealed as significant variables in the male, while, pesticide work and farming type were significant in the female. According to the above results, the following could be suggested. Because lumbago, shoulder stiffness, paresthesia of hand and foot were the most frequently complained symptoms in the respondent, the development of farming tool to reduce the body burden and periodical physical exercise and rest is highly recommended. It is revealed that both in the farmer' disease and greenhouse disease the score was higher in the female than in the male. So the reasonables measures is recommended to reduce the working hours of the female. Pesticide work was revealed as the significant variable in the female in farmer's disease and both in the male and the female in greenhouse disease. So the development of the safe method of pesticide spraying including safety education should be introduced. Particularly the female should be excluded in pesticide spraying.

Damping-off symptoms were frequently observed on young plants of coastal hogfennel (Peucedanum japonicum) grown in a farmer's vinyl greenhouse located in Goseong, Gangwon Province, Korea during a disease survey in June 2019. Incidence of the diseased plants was 50-70% in the vinyl greenhouse investigated during the disease survey. Eight isolates of Rhizoctonia sp. were obtained from the diseased plants. All the isolates were identified as Rhizoctonia solani AG-4 based on the morphological characteristics and anastomosis test. Three isolates of R. solani AG-4 were tested for pathogenicity on coastal hogfennel by artificial inoculation. All the tested isolates induced damping-off symptoms on the inoculated plants. The symptoms were similar to those observed in the farmer's vinyl greenhouse investigated. This is the first report of R. solani AG-4 causing damping-off in coastal hogfennel.

Damping-off symptoms were frequently observed in young deltoid synurus (Synurus deltoides) plants grown in a farmer's vinyl greenhouse located in Hwacheon, Gangwon Province, Korea, during a disease survey in July 2019. The incidence of diseased plants in the vinyl greenhouse investigated was 5-30%. Five isolates of Rhizoctonia sp. were obtained from the diseased plants and identified as Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 (IB), based on morphological and cultural characteristics and anastomosis test results. Three isolates of R. solani AG-1 (IB) were tested for pathogenicity on deltoid synurus using artificial inoculation. All the tested isolates induced damping-off symptoms in the inoculated plants. The symptoms were similar to those observed in plants from the farmer's vinyl greenhouse. To our best knowledge, this is the first report of R. solani AG-1 (IB) causing damping-off in deltoid synurus.

충청남도 청양군의 2개면 14개리에 거주하는 비닐하우스 재배자 177명과 일반 농민 213명을 대상으로 1998년 2월 24일부터 3월 15일까지 피로도, 주관적 건강상태, 농부증과 이의 위험요인을 파악하기 위하여 설문조사를 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 피로도는 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 성별로는 여자가 남자보다(p<0.01), 교육수준이 낮을수록(p<0.01), 8시간 미만의 수면시간 (p<0.05), 비흡연자, 비음주자에서 피로도가 높았고, 연령, 식생활습관, 체질량지수는 관계가 없었다. 작업환경은 비닐하우스 재배자에서 총농사기간(r=0.159, p<0.05), 일반 농민은 총경작면적(r=-0.143, p<0.05)과 농작업동반가족수(r=-0.136, p<05)에서 약한 상관관계를 보였다. 2. 주관적 건강상태는 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 성별로는 여자가 남자보다(p<0.01), 교육수준이 낮을수록 (p<0.01), 8시간 미만의 수면시간(p<0.05), 비흡연자에서 주관적 건강상태가 좋지 않았으며, 연령, 음주, 식생활습관, 체질량지수, 작업환경은 관련성이 없었다. 3. '농부증 있음'은 비닐하우스 재배자 49.2%, 일반 농민 52.1%로 비슷하였으며, 성별로 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민 모두 여자에서 57.0%, 58.8%로 남자 37.1%, 40.3%보다 높았다(p<0.01). 교육수준은 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 무학 58.1%, 초등학교 50.0%, 중졸 이상 36.1%로 학력이 낮을수록 높았고(p<0.01), 일반 농민도 각각 56.3%, 51.0%, 33.3%로 같은 경향이었다(p<0.01). 흡연과 음주여부는 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 비흡연군과 비음주군에서 높았으나, 일반 농민에서는 차이가 없었고, 체질량지수도 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 세장형 57.1%, 비만형 63.9%로 정상형 42.5%보다 높았으나(p<0.05), 일반 농민은 차이가 없었다. 4. 농부증의 위험요인에 대한 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석에서 성별, 수면시간이 중요한 요인이었으며, 남자를 기준하였을 때 여자의 교차비는 2.53(p<0.01), 수면시간 8시간 미만을 기준하였을 때 8시간 이상은 0.74로(p<0.01), 여자에서 발생위험이 높았고, 수면시간이 8시간 이상일수록 발생위험은 낮아졌다. 5. 비닐하우스 재배지와 일반 농민에서 많이 호소하는 주관적 신체증상은 '등이 결리거나 허리가 아파서 일하기가 어렵다.' '팔과 다리가 몹시 쑤시고 아픈 일이 있다', '손발이 저리거나 찌릿찌릿 하다'. '팔과 다리에 통증이 있어서 불편하다' '손의 힘이 전에 비해 약해졌다'에서 과반수 이상이 있다고 응답하였으며, 비닐하우스 재배자에서 일반 농민보다 많은 증상은 '피부의 일부분이 검게 변하였다'. '습진이나 무좀 등이 피부질환이 있다', '치질로 고생한 일이 있다'였다. 6. 대응분석 결과 비닐하우스 재배자는 피부계 질환이 높게 관찰되었으며, 남자는 소화기계 장애나 기타 질환, 여성에서는 내분비질환, 근육계통의 질환이 많은 것으로 나타났고, 농부증도 일반 농민과 여자에서 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 피로도, 주관적 건강상태, 농부증도 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 주로 농사와 노동일을 병행하는 여성에서 많고, 연령이 증가함에 따라 유병률도 증가하는 경향을 감안하면 추후 농촌의 노령환된 여성들에 대한 중점적인 관리가 필요하다. 또한 작업환경의 차이에 의하여 비닐하우스 재배자에서만 나타나는 미약하지만 특징적인 증상이 있으므로 이에 대한 지속적인 조사와 관리의 필요성이 있다.

Recent trends in agricultural globalization have brought on a crisis to our already impoverished Korean farmers. This study was proposed to assist in comparing the health and dietary characteristics of farmer families that have chronic disease patients to farmer families that do not have chronic disease patients. For the study, 1870 families were selected from 9 rural Korean provinces. Trained evaluators interviewed farmer housewives to collect demographic, health behavior, and dietary relative information about family members. Statistical analyses were performed using SAS (ver 8.2). Chi-square tests and General Linear Models were also used. In general, patient family members were older than non-patient family members. For patient families, the mean age was 70.4 for husbands and 64.3 for wives. For non-patient families, the mean age was 64.2 for husbands and 57.3 for wives. Therefore we analyzed the data after we stratified the subjects based on the wife's age of 65. Patient families snacked less and 'dined out' less than non-patient families. However, they consumed cookies more frequently, and milk and fruits less frequently, when compared to non-patient families. There were no significant differences in nutrient supplementation, and/or instant food intake frequencies between patient families and non-patient families. Sixty-two percent of patient family members complained about health problems such arthritis, lumbago, numbness, shoulder pain, dizziness, and others, whereas 52olo of non-patient family members complained about Farmers' syndrome. Husband cigarette smoking was not significantly different among groups. However, the smoking patterns of the wives was significantly higher in patient families. Alcohol consumption was also higher in patient families. In summary, it was determined that rural patient families had poorer dietary behavior and poorer health in general, when compared to non-patient families, and accordingly, diverse community-level health and nutritional support are suggested to solve the farmers' health problems and to improve their quality of life.

BACKGROUND: White stain symptom caused by Acremonium acutatum and Trichothecium roseum, is one of the most important diseases on the grape. This disease occurs national-wide in Korea and causes irreversible damage on grape, at harvest season. This study was conducted to develop environment-friendly control method against white stain symptom. METHODS AND RESULTS: Environment-friendly materials were tested for control activity against A. acutatum and T. roseum in vitro and in vivo. The effect of environment-friendly materials against white stain symptom on grape in farmer's greenhouse was examined. The materials, NaDCC and sulphur, were sprayed three times on the leaves and fruit of grape at the two sites of farmer's field, Anseong and Hwaseong of Gyeounggi. To evaluate control effect of NaDCC and sulphur against white stain symptom, the disease severity was investigated after the two materials were sprayed from the disease onset three times at the 7-day intervals. NaDCC showed efficacy of 59.71% for Kyoho and 72.26% for Campbell-Early, and sulphur showed 78.31% for Koyho and 66.19% for Campbell-Early. CONCLUSION: We were selected sulphur and Sodium-Dichloroisocyannurate(NaDCC) based on the results of experiments in vitro. In field test, sulphur and NaDCC showed suppressive effect in the white stain symptom of grape. These results suggested that NaDCC and sulphur selected can be used as control agents for controlling white stain symptom on grape.
