Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major pathogens causing bovine mastitis and foodborne diseases associated with dairy products. To determine the genetic relationships between human and bovine or bovine isolates of S. aureus, various molecular methods have been used. Previously we developed an rpoB sequence typing (RSTing) method for molecular differentiation of S. aureus isolates and identification of RpoB-related antibiotic resistance. In this study, we performed spa typing and RSTing with 84 isolates from mastitic cows (22 farms, 72 cows, and 84 udders) and developed a molecular prophage typing (mPPTing) method for molecular epidemiological analysis of bovine mastitis. To compare the results, human isolates from patients (n = 14) and GenBank (n = 166) were used for real and in silico RSTing and mPPTing, respectively. Based on the results, RST10-2 and RST4-1 were the most common rpoB sequence types (RSTs) in cows and humans, respectively, and most isolates from cows and humans clearly differed. Antibiotic resistance-related RSTs were not detected in the cow isolates. A single dominant prophage type and gradual evolution through prophage acquisition were apparent in most of the tested farms. Thus, RSTing and mPPTing are informative, simple, and economic methods for molecular epidemiological analysis of S. aureus infections.

Heavy snow damage can be prevented in advance with an appropriate security system. To develop the security system, we developed a model that predicts snow depth after a few hours when the snow depth is observed, and utilized it to calculate a failure probability with various types of greenhouses and observed snow depth data. We compared the Markov chain model and Bayesian long short-term memory models with varying input data. Markov chain model showed the worst performance, and the models that used only past snow depth data outperformed the models that used other weather data with snow depth (temperature, humidity, wind speed). Also, the models that utilized 1-hour past data outperformed the models that utilized 3-hour data and 6-hour data. Finally, the Bayesian LSTM model that uses 1-hour snow depth data was selected to predict snow depth. We compared the selected model and the shifting method, which uses present data as future data without prediction, and the model outperformed the shifting method when predicting data after 11-24 hours.

본 연구는 영농규모화에 대한 전개과정과 충남지역 쌀 생산기반을 검토하고 쌀 산업의 미래지향적 방향의 한 축을 이어갈 쌀 전업농의 영농규모화를 통한 그 대안을 모색하는데 있다. 이 목적을 완성하기 위해 조사된 내용을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 충남지역이 쌀 생산은 전국에서 가장 높으며 재배면적에서도 제2위를 차지하고 있다. 이는 그만큼 쌀에 대한 국제적 정세변화는 충남의 쌀 생산농가에게 지대한 영향을 미칠 수 있는 개연성을 높여준다. 쌀 생산의 핵심이 되는 전업농가 수는 도내 전체농가의 7.7%를 차지하고 있고, 이들의 평균 경작면적은 2.9ha 이다. 이 면적은 규모화사업을 위해 지원된 자금이 크게 주효한 결과라고 해석된다. 2. 1980년대 후반부터 2002년까지 추진된 충남지역 영농규모화사업은 충남지역에 쌀 전업농가의 경영규모를 19,484ha까지 증가시켰다. 또한 1995년부터 2002년까지 매매사업이 이루어진 농가 수는 6,431농가에 1,6517ha가 매매되었으며, 장기임대차사업은 같은 기간동안 7,059농가에 면적은 6,970ha에 이르렀다. 다만 농지교환분합사업은 210ha에 1,864농가가 참여하였는데 이처럼 농지교환.분합사업이 활발하지 못한 것은 은퇴자들이 영농에 넓은 면적을 요망하지 않아 구태여 규모화사업에 응하지 않더라도 생활에 지장이 없기 때문이다. 또한 교환과 분합작업에 따른 복잡성 등, 일반 사회적 여건도 농지의 교환분합사업에 부정적인 방향으로 작용했던 것으로 추정된다. 3. 영농규모화사업을 촉진하기 위해서 제안된 방안들은 다음과 같다. (1) 재촌탈농자 및 고령 은퇴자를 위한 전직 프로그램 및 사회보장프로그램을 수립하고 농지매매 촉진을 위한 각종 인센티브제를 도입하여야 할 것이다. (2) 효율적인 쌀 생산시스템을 확립하기 위하여 단위면적당 생산량을 증대시키고 생산비를 낮추는 제 방안이 강구되어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 쌀 생산기술과 경영적 능력을 갖춘 생산조직이 육성되어야 하며 시설의 적정배치 및 정보화가 완비되어야 한다. 그리고 영농시스템 구축에 바탕을 둔 지역종합의 다양한 구조개선도 병행하지 않으면 안 될 것이다. (3) 경영규모를 확대, 개선하기 위해서는 개별경영규모를 확대하거나 집단규모를 활용한 방안이 강구될 수 있을 것이다. 이상을 종합하면 충남의 영농규모화사업은 성공적으로 수행되어 왔다고 할 수 있으나, 궁극적으로 이 사업이 소기의 목적을 달성하기 위해서는 부수되는 제반 문제점을 적절히 해결해 가지 않으면 안 된다. 그리고 쌀 전업농에 대한 적절한 지원 및 탈농자 및 은퇴자에 대한 종합대책수립은 충남의 영농규모화사업을 완수하는데 반드시 선결되어야할 사항이다.

Due to changes in the agricultural market environment and both overseas and domestic farming conditions, uncertainties in agricultural production and management are becoming greater. Hence, there is a stronger need for farmers to choose crops in the optimal condition. This research aims to introduce the result and process of developing a decision support system for selecting crops, aimed to assist farmers in selecting the optimal crops most suitable in the given situation. There are basically three main factors to consider in the decision-making process for farmers when selecting a crop to introduce to their lands. First of all, one must consider how much profit crop A will produce when it is cultivated. Secondly, one must consider which crop to cultivate in order to earn a certain amount of profit. Thirdly, one must consider what is the best way to maximize Farm A's business profit. For instance, a farm may have land as its resource, and one must research which location, type of crop, level of technology, and so forth, to maximize profit.This research creates a database of the profitability of a total of 180 crop types by analyzing Rural Development Administration's survey of agricultural products income of 115 crop types, small land profitability index survey of 53 crop types, and Statistics Korea's survey of production costs of 12 crop types. Furthermore, this research presents the result and developmental process of a web-based crop introduction decision support system that provides overseas cases of new crop introduction support programs, as well as databases of outstanding business success cases of each crop type researched by agricultural institutions.

The aim of this paper was to analyze the determinants of farm household income in the Gyeongbuk province. Data from 5,254 villages in the Gyeongbuk province were used. The main results are as follows. First, the percentage of self-supporting villages for fishing villages was 10.8%, which was higher than the average of 6.4%; however, the percentage of self-supporting villages for mountain villages was only 2.7 percent. Second, the level of income was estimated to positively correlate with the ratio of the roof improvement rate, a sisterhood relationship, farming households, and the number of people under the age of 14. Finally, the results show that variables such as age, farming percentage, roof improvement ratio, and a sisterhood relationship were significant. When the percentage for the roof improvement ratio was higher, the ratio for a sisterhood relationship with another city was higher, and when the proportion of farmers was higher, the average income of the village was higher. Based on the results from the above analysis, the following policy implications are suggested. First, the income levels of rural villages in the 1970s are related to the Saemaul project in Korea. In other words, the Saemaul project contributed to improving the farming household income by direct and indirect methods. Second, it can be seen that it is important to develop policies that take into account different village types within rural areas.

Two types of baby corn silk detachment systems called fixing and moving baby corn and based on applying frictional force on the silk were developed and evaluated. In the fixing mode the baby corn was fixed on a pin and a hollow frictional cylinder was moved concentrically and vertically along the baby corn towards the branch end. In the moving mode the baby corn was forced vertically towards the tip to pass through the same silk detachment cylinder. Traveling speeds of the detachment cylinder and the baby corn were 44.5 and 166.9 mm/s. In the fixing mode at silk moisture content of 91 % (w.b) silk detachment efficiencies at low and high speeds were 99.1 and 99.2%. The silk detachment efficiencies in the moving mode at low and high speeds were 96.6 and 98.5%. Damaged baby corn at low speed was less than at high speed in both modes. Minimum damage was nil in the fixing mode at low speed and the maximum was 47.5% in the moving mode at high speed. The damaged was due to ovaries r moval at the base near the joint between the baby corn and the branch.

This study is aimed to define and classify GREEN TOURISM (GT) resources as the basis for rural sustainable development, and to analyze the current conditions of GT and applicable resources in Korea. For these purposes, a field survey about 24 rural villages in Japan and Korea is applied, accompanied by a questionnaire survey of 30 specialists, as well as a literature review. The results of this study are summarized as follows. The concept of GT has 3 important points: interchange between rural and urban residents, staying in villages, and residents' participation. GT resource are divided into 4 types: Agricultural, Ecological, Historical and Living resources in a space and activity program. In addition, the GT resources in Japan are more quantitatively abundant than in Korea, but Korean agricultural and ecological resources were more abundant relatively. According to the several methods above, 18 space and 14 activity programs were classified. Lastly, this study analyzed the applicable 32 Korean resources using the specialists' questionnaire survey. Among the space resources, ecological landscape, farm produce, farm-land, water, and historical landscape have higher applicability, but the applicability of sports, event, commemoration, and divine space are lower. Among the activity programs, farm produce, animal, plant, food&beverage, and living appliance have higher applicability.

남양주의 실제 상추재배 농가를 대상으로 전과정평가를 적용하여 bottom-up 방식의 사례분석을 수행하였다. 사례분석을 위하여 현장을 방문하여 청취 조사를 하였고, 대상 농가는 유기농가 2곳, 무농약 인증 농가 1곳, 관행농가 2곳이었다. 현장자료 수집과 산정에서 데이터 값의 오차범위가 넓어지는 것을 고려하여 추가의 냉난방이 없는 가을 1 작기를 기준으로 평가하였고, 민감도 분석과 시나리오 분석을 추가하였다. 전과정 목록분석과 영향평가는 'PASS(4.1.3)' 소프트웨어를 사용하였다. GTG 목록작성 결과 상추 1 kg 생산하는데 투입되는 물질 중 비료와 에너지 투입이 가장 높은 비중을 차지하였고, 농약이 가장 작은 값을 나타냈다. 특히 육묘단계가 없었던 농가 1을 제외한 모든 농가에서 전기의 투입량이 가장 높게 나타났다. 상추 1 kg 생산하는데 영농작업으로 말미암아 포장에서 직접 배출되는 $CO_2$, $CH_4$, $N_2O$는 각각 6.79E-03 (농가 1), 8.10E-03 (농가 2), 1.82E-02 (농가 3), 7.51E-02 (농가 4), 1.61E-02 (농가 5) kg $kg^{-1}$ lettuce이었다. 전과정 목록분석 결과 시설 상추 1 kg 생산하는데 발생하는 온실가스 발생량은 $CO_2$가 배출량 대부분을 차지하였고, 그 다음이 $N_2O$, $CH_4$ 순으로 나타났다. 농가별 $CO_2$ 배출량은 각각 2.92E-01 (농가 1), 3.76E-01 (농가 2), 4.11E-01 (농가 3), 9.40E-01 (농가 4), $5.37E-01kg\;CO_2\;kg^{-1}\;lettuce$ (농가 5)이었다. 공정별 온실가스 발생량을 분석한 결과, $CO_2$는 에너지생산 과정에서 발생하는 양이 가장 많았다. 관행농은 에너지생산에 의한 배출 비중이 유기농보다 적었고 대신 복비 생산에 의한 $CO_2$ 배출 비중이 그 차이만큼 늘었다. 또한, 무기질 비료 투입이 많아질수록 아산화질소 발생에서 상추재배 공정이 차지하는 비중이 높게 나타났는데 농가 1, 2는 87%, 농가 3은 64%를 나타냈다. 시설 상추 생산체계의 탄소성적 값은 농가별로 각각 3.40E-01 (농가 1), 4.31E-01 (농가 2), 5.32E-01 (농가 3), 1.08E+00 (농가 4), 6.14E-01 (농가 5) kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ lettuce였다. 민감도 분석 결과 유기질 비료 민감도가 무기질 비료 민감도 보다 높았고, 이 중 유박의 민감도가 가장 높았고, 복합비료의 민감도가 가장 낮았다. 또한, 온실가스 변화량 중 아산화질소 발생량이 가장 민감하게 변화하였다. 전기 사용량 변화에 따른 민감도 분석은 이산화탄소의 민감도가 가장 높았고, 다음이 메탄이었고, 아산화질소는 민감도가 0에 가까웠다. 따라서 시설재배 상추생산에서 탄소배출량 감소를 위하여 질소비료 종류와 시비방법 및 시설내 전기사용에 대한 합리적 영농법에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 상추 재배에서 여름 작기에 대한 탄소 성적 시나리오 분석결과 생산량이 봄이나 가을에 비하여 약 1/2~1/3정도 작았고, 이에 따라 탄소성적도 30~40배 높은 값을 보였다.
