  • The need for recreation and green-tourism seems to be enhanced greatly according to increasing income and leisure. The rural area and village should be developed and improved with a new direction as basic areas for the green-tourism. This study developed a new methodology to be able to find suitable areas for recreation and green-tourism using GIS and RS. The eight criteria for suitability evaluation of recreation area extracted by GIS and RS techniques from computerized map layers and satellite images have their weighting values, which are quantified by AHP method. The new finding methodology was applied to a study area, the Ansung city in Kyunggi province. The results showed that the suitable area with high score for the recreation and green-tourism were analyzed spatially near by ancient culture and water resources.

  • This study investigated the quality characteristics of $Jajang$ noodles with added spinach (20%, 30% and 50% based on water). Significant increases ($p$<0.05) were found in cooked weight, water absorption of cooked noodles, turbidity of soup, while soup volume did not changed in proportion to the addition of spinach. Decrease of L and a values and an increase of b values were shown with the increase of spinach concentration. For textural properties, hardness was the lowest in 50% spinach noodles and the highest in 20% spinach noodles. The cohesiveness and springiness values of 20% and 30% spinach noodles were superior to those of the control, but a rise in spinach concentration (50%) lead to a reduction these values. In a sensory evaluation, the most acceptable sample was the 30% spinach noodle sample. These results suggest an addition of 30% spinach is suitable for spinach $Jajang$ noodle processing.

  • The purpose of this research is to strengthen rural community empowerment by creating a tourism farm as a plan to reduce relative poverty and to improve the quality of life by creating jobs and increasing the income of local residents in underdeveloped countries. To do so, literature review, stakeholder interviews, on-site investigations, focus-group interviews, a project meeting for residents and a questionnaire survey were performed and analyzed and the results were as follows. First, Uganda has the potential to increase agricultural production based on its warm climate, fertile land and abundant natural resources. The quality of life of local residents is expected to be improved by realizing high-added values through the convergence of the conventional existing agricultural industry and other industries if the agricultural technology is properly transferred based on abundant labor force and low labor expenses. Opportunities for the success of the project can be spread to other rural villages across the country. Second, since local residents are now cultivating sugar cane, cassava, matoke, banana, coffee and so on as a farm owner, tourism agriculture with high-added values can be promoted by vitalizing communities based on farming technology to be transferred and a cooperative farm. It is also necessary to implement a rural community empowerment project to do so. Third, the university that is the cooperative partner of the project is positively considering to train experts by establishing a community development department, and, if necessary, a technical training center to educate the general public, which is expected to create synergic effects through the convergence of education, agriculture and tourism.
