  • An acoustic ranging system was applied for reckoning the location of an agricultural vehicle in the field. The system has a number of fixed stations and a mobile station such as an agricultural vehicle. The mobile station comprises a radio frequency modulator-demodulator (RF MODEM), a buzzer, and a personal computer. The fixed station comprises an (RF MODEM), a microphone, an amplifier for the microphone, and a personal computer with a soundboard. The mobile station transmits a 7-bit ASCII code and, activates the buzzer simultaneously. The propagation delay time at the fixed station is caused by the difference ...

  • A flow injection type biosensor was tested to confirm the performance of a batch and a continuous type flow injection unit. Reproducibility and consistence of the biosensor were investigated to determine the effect of pulsations and air bubbles, and the applicability of on-line monitoring. The air bubbles affected the performance of the sensor irrespective of the location, and also the pulsations of the pump influenced the performance of the sensor. The applicability of on-line motoring was accepted as the result of the repeated and long-term measurements.

  • Transportation and logistics of agricultural products have been one of the major interests of many researches. Most of researches have been limited to presuming these as a first dimensional process or considering only economic value of agricultural products at each stage of logistics. However, the particular characteristics of agricultural products, such as quality change during transportation or extensively scattered origins, require examining these problems as a whole system. Network model has been adopted to represent nodes, which stand for spatial location of demand and supply of agricultural products, and communication between these nodes. Based on network theory and advanced marketing potential function, an optimal routes selection model is developed. The model employed network simplex method for routes optimization. The application of the model focused on transportation network organization to reflect different market prices for different locations and resulted in optimum routes and profit improvement of the applied agricultural product.

  • In this study, the break of the rotary blade which is occured from a stress concentration of the inside of blade by the outside impulsive load, is analyzed to 3-dimension used by the Freezing Photoelastic Method. These results are as follows. 1. The bending and compression stress are the greatest at the location of blade case. 2. The section area of 3cm-location from the blade case is the smallest, therefore, there are breaked 58% of all at this location and are proofed to the most danger section 3. The section area which by stress concentration of 3cm-location from blade case is caused by the production of blade, and it was higher danger of break than another location's. 4. In the location of 6cm and 9cm from the blade case, the bending stress has received a little and the section area has larger than another's, so it is not almost possible that the break at that location 5. In order to prevent of break, the external part which has contacted soil have to made tender for receiving a little stress and the internal part which received a large stress have to strengthen.

  • In this study, examined influence of consolidation effect that had affected by location of pump inlet that was set collection well for drainage of pore water discharged by embankment on soft ground through the field test. The results of this study are summarized as follows; 1 Initial consolidation curve value were larger than theoritic value, the cause of these phenomena were thought influence of secondary consolidation and three dimensional strain of soft clay. 2. The settlement value of Hosino method was larger than that of Hyperbolic method, but settlement value of Hyperbolic method was accurate more than that of Hosino method in the prediction of settlement. 3. When pump inlet in collection well came down from GL+O.3m to GL-1.5m, settlement value increased about 10cm and when the ground water level was made insitu after pumping had completed , settlement was expanded about 7~8cm. So it is found that location change of pump inlet bad an influence on settlement remarkably. 4. If location of pump inlet in collection well for large scale estate or wide road site is lowered than original ground level, the settlement will be accelerated effectively, and at this stage automatic pump must be used in pumping.

  • This paper aims to review how pre-processing facility of agricultural products can be established and operated. First of all, industry and its enterprises of pre-processing agricultural products are analyzed from the national perspective. Especially, five well-known pre-processing business units operated by producers' organizations are introduced including Ansung Machoom Agricultural Cooperative. Changwon City in Gyeongnam Province was chosen for a case study. Demand for local agricultural products by school feeding and other institutional food service in Changwon area is estimated and it is compared with the supply of agricultural products produced in the region. Questionnaire survey was done for school nutritionists and the main results are summarized. In the final stage, basic ideas for pre-processing facility of agricultural products in Changwon area are proposed considering the previous analyses. These ideas include size of the facility, participants and scope of the business, and location. Virtual profitability analysis is also conducted for the facility. Some suggestions for the proposed facility to be more successful in the future are suggested at the conclusion.

  • Four different backcrossing methods were designed and 23 near isogenic lines (NILs) of 22 linkage groups were obtained using Hb as recurrent parent, the mutant gene lines which held markers as donor parents. Eleven of them had been mated with the recurrent parent for 10 times, and the others for 7∼8 times. The NILs of other 6 linkage groups are under way and had been backcrossed to the recurrent for 3∼4 times. These NILs will act important roles in the construction of molecular linkage map and gene location and positional cloning.

  • It is not feasible for agricultural facility managers to estimate how severe damages are and what are causes of them when agricultural hydraulic facilities get damaged for some reasons. Moreover, it is nearly impossible for agricultural facility managers to take immediate actions to repair and reinforce the damaged structures. Thus, there have been needs for well-established systems to help agricultural facility managers understand its severity and causes, and take proper actions to reduce speed of deterioration and to repair/reinforce them. Thus repairing and reinforcing systems of agricultural hydraulic structures based on agricultural facility management policies, developed in this study, can be efficiently used in field works to determine top priority location and the budget of repairing and reinforcing projects if detailed information of damages in concrete structures and damage types are well compiled and classified with standardized image data complemented.

  • This article describes the process involved in usability testing a agricultural information Web site. In addition to determining the goals and requirements for the agricultural information Web site, a user and task analysis was conducted for defining the its user base and the types of tasks which users might be performing at the site. Usability testing methods with close observation and in-depth interviews provided fresh insights about how users are interacting with the agricultural information Web interface as they approach various information seeking tasks. This study uncovered problems related to unclear terminology, improper interface, location for navigational links, need for context sensitive help, built-in redundancy, and clear and consistent navigation.
