To examine the effect of packaging method on strawberry, tomato, and plum quality, the rate of weight loss, Hunter a value, decay rate, anthocyanin contents, and microbial (total bacterial counts, mold and yeast, and pseudomonas) changes were determined during storage. Strawberry was packaged with low density polyethylene (LDPE). Tomato and plum were packaged with high density polyethylene film (HDPE). Strawberries, tomatoes, and plums were then stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$, respectively. LDPE package was the most effective on the decrease of decay rate of strawberry and the rate of weight loss for packaged strawberry was lower than that of the non-packaged. HDPE package was the most effective on the rate of weight loss during storage of tomatoes and plums regardless of storage temperature. Hunter a value increased during storage. Anthocyanin contents of plums increased overall with increasing storage time, and plums stored without package were changed more than those with package. Microbial changes of strawberry, tomato, and plum stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$ were monitored during storage. Packaging method did not affect the microbial change, yet temperature did affect the microbial change significantly. These results indicate that storage of these commodities at 4$^{\circ}C$ should be recommended in terms ,of microbial safety as well as quality and shelf-life.

Blossom blight in strawberry was first observed in a green house in Nonsan, Damyang, and Geochang areas of Korea, between early January to April of 2012. Disease symptoms started as a grey fungus formed on the stigma, which led to the blossom blight and eventually to black rot and necrosis of the entire flower. We isolated the fungi purely from the infected pistils and maintained them on potato dextrose agar (PDA) slants. To test Koch's postulates, we inoculated the fungi and found that all of the isolates caused disease symptoms in the flower of strawberry cultivars (Seolhyang, Maehyang, and Kumhyang). The isolates on PDA had a velvet-like appearance, and their color ranged between olivaceous-brown and smoky-grey to olive and almost black. The intercalary conidia of the isolates were elliptical to limoniform, with sizes ranging from $5.0{\sim}10.5{\times}2.5{\sim}3.0{\mu}m$ to $4.0{\sim}7.5{\times}2.0{\sim}3.0{\mu}m$, respectively. The secondary ramoconidia of these isolates were 0- or 1-septate, with sizes ranging betweem $10.0{\sim}15.0{\times}2.5{\sim}3.7{\mu}m$ and $8.7{\sim}11.2{\times}2.5{\sim}3.2{\mu}m$, respectively. A combined sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer regions, partial actin (ACT), and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF) genes revealed that the strawberry isolates belonged to two groups of authentic strains, Cladosporium cladosporioides and C. tenuissimum. Based on these results, we identified the pathogens causing blossom blight in strawberries in Korea as being C. cladosporioides and C. tenuissimum.

We examined the incidence of powdery mildew in strawberry cv. Seolhyang plants, and performed a comparative analysis on the temperature, photosynthesis rate, and nutrient content of healthy and powdery mildew-infected plants. Powdery mildew first infected the fruit of the strawberries in mid-January, and the disease severity increased in both fruits and leaves during the late harvest season. The rate of photosynthesis and leaf temperatures of healthy plants were higher than those of powdery mildew-infected leaves and significantly decreased with an increase in the disease severity. The healthy and powdery mildew-infected plants in the soil analysis were not significantly different in chemical compositions. The leaves of the healthy plants contained lower potassium and higher manganese and chlorophyll concentrations than the powdery mildew-infected plants. In particular, manganese was significantly higher in healthy leaves than in infected leaves. Therefore, the concentrations of potassium, manganese and chlorophyll in strawberry leaves may be an important factor for disease suppression.

Plant biomass is a huge carbon-complex that has potential as a nutrient. Therefore we extracted and separated useful materials for plant growth from tea leaf and stem. The pre-treatment process including high temperature ($200^{\circ}C$) and pressure (20-40 kgf/$cm^2$) was treated for several minutes and extracted at $120^{\circ}C$ for 30-60 minutes. After that the chemical compositions and ingredients were analyzed from that plant-nutrient. As a result of mineral contents, calcium and magnesium concentrations are higher than other minerals. Also the result of carbohydrates analyses has shown that the sugar oligomer consists of xylose(95.3%) and glucose(4.7%), and the sugar monomer consists in the order of xylose (52.7%) > manose (22.8%) > arabinose (10.8%) > galactose (10.2%) > glucose (3.5%). Before applied to field, in vitro plant growth system and formulation were examined. To evaluate the effect of the nutrients, both strawberry green-house and persimmon fields were used in this test. The treated persimmons were heavier than controls scored at 13-22%. In addition, the storage-period was extended in the treated strawberries. Interestingly in the treated strawberry, the contents of polyphenols were increased (38-57%). These results suggest that the plant-nutrient can afford to help for plant growth and storage, and it can be substituted for other commercial nutrients. In conclusion, this plant-nutrient may help to extend eco-friendly or organic farming in Hadong-gun area.

To examine the effect of storage condition on the quality and microbiological change of strawberry “Minyubong”, the rate of weight loss, decay rate, pH and titratable acidity, and microbial (total bacterial count, mold and yeast) changes were determined during storage. Strawberry fruits were packaged with low-density polyethylene (LDPE). Strawberries were then stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$, respectively. LDPE package was effective on the decrease of decay rate of strawberry as well as the rate of weight loss, compared with the non-packaged. Microbial changes of strawberry stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$ were monitored during storage. Packaging affected the microbial change, resulting in retarding the growth of total bacteria as well as mold and yeast, compared with the non-packaged, regardless of storage temperature. These results indicate that storage of strawberry fruits wrapped with LDPE at 4'C should be recommended in terms of quality as well as its shelf-life.

Smart Farm, which combines agriculture and ICT convergence technology, is at a lower stage than other industries in Korea, but it is also one of the most active research and development fields. Smart Farm aims to improve the efficiency of each step by collecting, processing and analyzing various information of agriculture sector through convergence between agriculture and ICT technology. In this study, we studied the image processing method that can distinguish strawberry which can be harvested at harvest time by color for smart farm composition of strawberry which is a horticultural crop. Strawberry harvesting requires a lot of labor in the process of growing strawberries. In this study, we aim to collect information necessary for labor saving in strawberry harvester. As a precedent study, we plan to implement a form in which the color temperature changes according to the light direction and brightness value through OpenCV color detection using Python. In the future, it is planned to study strawberry color value suitable for harvest by applying compensation value to color temperature change.

Purpose: This study intends to provide decision-making information to improve efficiency by analyzing the management efficiency of smart greenhouse business entities and identifying factors that affect the efficiency based on input and output. Methods: The subjects of analysis were business entities for cultivating strawberries in smart greenhouses in Jeolla region (northern and southern Jeolla provinces), and the analysis focused on the management performance of the 2019-2020 crop period (year). Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) was applied as an analysis method for efficiency analysis, Quantile Regression(QR) analysis was applied as a factor affecting the efficiency. Results: The reason for the efficiency gap between business entities was that there were many business entities that did not minimize the input cost at the current level of output, and the area where the variance among business entities was large was the fixed cost per 10a. In the results of the affecting factor analysis, it was found that the seed-seedlings cost, fertilizer cost, other material cost, and employment and labor cost had a negative (-) effect on the efficiency, and that the repair and maintenance cost had a positive (+) effect. Conclusion: Therefore, to achieve the efficiency of scale, it is necessary to reduce the input scale to an appropriate level. In the case of business entities with low efficiency by quartile, the seed-seedlings, fertilizer, and other material costs reduce expenditures, and repair maintenance costs can improve efficiency by increasing expenditures.

BACKGROUND: The healthy food trend has encouraged the consumption of natural products, including berries. This trend is expected to increase the strawberry consumption. There has been a concern about the exposure of pesticides approved for use on strawberry. In this study, the dissipation patterns of systemic and non-systemic pesticides were evaluated in strawberry under plastic-covered greenhouse conditions. METHODS AND RESULTS: Cyflumetofen and dimethomorph were applied on strawberry in the critical GAP (Good Agricultural Practices). Strawberries were harvested at 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days after final application of the pesticides. The analyses of the residual pesticides were performed by HPLC-DAD with C18 column. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) of cyflumetofen and dimethomorph were 0.04 and 0.02 mg/kg, respectively. The recovery of cyflumetofen and dimethomorph were 88.1 ~ 103.3% and 79.0 ~ 110.2% for the spiked two levels (LOQ and 10LOQ), respectively. The biological half-lives of cyflumetofen and dimethomorph werer 7.5 and 8.9 days, respectively. The dissipation rates in strawberry were calculated by the statistics method at a 95% confidence level. The distribution showed that pesticides with low log Pow were indicated by the decreased dissipation rate and pesticides with similar log Pow and low solubility also showed the decreased dissipation rate. CONCLUSION: The residues of cyflumetofen and dimethomorph in strawberry at time 0 after the final application were below the established MRL in Korea. The dissipation behavior of systemic and non-systemic pesticides in strawberry is affected by their log Pow and water solubility values.

In this paper, images are automatically acquired to control the initial disease of strawberries among facility cultivation crops, and disease analysis is performed using the EfficientNet model to inform farmers of disease status, and disease diagnosis service is proposed by experts. It is possible to obtain an image of the strawberry growth stage and quickly receive expert feedback after transmitting the disease diagnosis analysis results to farmers applications using the learned EfficientNet model. As a data set, farmers who are actually operating facility cultivation were recruited and images were acquired using the system, and the problem of lack of data was solved by using the draft image taken with a cell phone. Experimental results show that the accuracy of EfficientNet B0 to B7 is similar, so we adopt B0 with the fastest inference speed. For performance improvement, Fine-tuning was performed using a pre-trained model with ImageNet, and rapid performance improvement was confirmed from 100 Epoch. The proposed service is expected to increase production by quickly detecting initial diseases.
