In this study, discharge of the pollutants from the rice paddies during cultivation and its pattern were investigated. The pH in the returned and rainfall water from ten different paddies was between 6.9 and 7.4, which is not associated with the cultivation time and farming style of individual paddy. TN and TP concentrations were highest in the beginning of first top dressing (fertilization), which indicates that proper top dressing and returned water management is crucial to reduce their discharge loads. In particular, TN concentration was more or less constant until tillering stage. This is thought to be due to the runoff of soil-adsorbed nitrogen and compost. Average SS concentration in the returned and rainfall water was 28 mg/L, and organics was predominantly soluble form, and highest COD 25 mg/L during transplanting, lowest 11.3 mg/L and average 11.3 mg/L. Density of TC (total coliform bacteria) was from 1000/100 mL to 114,000/100 mL and FC (fecal coliform) was 5 to 16% of TC density.

No-till direct seeding cultivation of rice has major advantages such as saving of labor and cost by eliminating tillage, preparation of seed bed and trans-planting procedure compared to the conventional transplanting cultivation. A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of straw treatment and nitrogen levels on the rice growth in no-till direct-seeding cultivation. Rice straw, vetch straw, and the mixture of both of the straws were mulched on the surface of soil before seeding while 4 levels of nitrogen fertilizer, 0, 7, 9, and 11 kkg/10a respectively, were applied at 3 split times, 3-weeks after sowing, 5-weeks after sowing and the panicle initiation stage. Mulching of vetch straw significantly reduced seedling establishment of rice which may be attributed to low oxidation-reduction potential of soil by vetch mulching treatment. Vetch straw increased the concentration of soil ammonium leading to an extension of the greenish leaf to panicle initiation stage. Agronomic nitrogen use efficiency (AD $E_{N}$) in heavy-mixed straw mulching plots was lower than other treatments. Grain yield and AU $E_{N}$ in the vetch treatment were less affected by fertilized N levels. Conclusively, it is suggested that heavy straw mulching was not efficient for rice seedling establishment and nitrogen usage.e.

For the increase of protein content in the straw without detrimental effect on grain yield by top dressing with various nitrogen amount IR667 (Suwon 214) and Jinheung were grown under field condition and the value as feed was investigated by chemical analysis on the harvested straw. 1. In straw IR667 was higher in crude protein, crude fiber and ash, and lower in total carbohydrate than Jinheung, and crude fat content was not much different. 2. The contents of crude protein and total carbohydrate increased with nitrogen level but crude fiber, crude fat and ash decreased, and those phenomena were clear in IR667. 3. The content of phosphorus in straw decreased with increasing nitrogen level more clearly in Jinheung. 4. Protein content was greatly increased in brown rice and calcium content tended to decrease with the increase of nitrogen application amount. 5. Country mean of crude protein in straw was 4.06% much lower than that of mixed wild grasses and forages (6.71) but crude protein could be increased above that of wild sources, moreover with grain yield increase by the improvement of nitrogen fertilizer application.

This study was conducted to compare the meat qualities of loin (m. longissimus dorsi) and top round (m. semimembranosus) from Hanwoo and Holstein veal. Ten Hanwoo and Holstein calves were randomly selected from a local cattle farm and raised. They were slaughtered when they were 8 mon old and weighed. Weight and percentage in primal cuts and slaughter performance of Hanwoo and Holstein veal calves are obtained. Immediately after weighting, slices of loin and top round muscles were sampled. After vacuum packaging, the samples were subjected to proximate composition, physicochemical and microbiological analyses. Dressing weight and percentage were heavier and greater (p<0.05) in the Holstein than in the Hanwoo. Water contents of the top round muscle was higher in the Holstein than in the Hanwoo (p<0.05). Water-holding capacity, protein content and CIE L* (lightness) of both muscles were higher in the Holstein than in the Hanwoo veal, whereas fat content, pH, cooking loss, a* (redness), and b* (yellowness) were higher in the Hanwoo than in the Holstein veal (p<0.05). Thiobarbituric acid and volatile basic nitrogen values of both the muscles were lower in the Hanwoo than in the Holstein veal during the first 10 d of storage (p<0.05).

This study was carried out to elucidate the proper split application method of nitrogen fertilizer for early dry seeding culture of rice in Honam plain area from 1997 to 1998 in Korea. Dongjinbyeo was selected as rice variety for this experiment. The rate of $160kg\;ha^{-1}$ of nitrogen was split as 40-30-30% of total nitrogen at three different application time combination ; T1) basal-5th leaf-panicle formation(PF) stage, T2) 3rd leaf-5th leaf-PF, and T3) 3rd leaf-7th leaf-PF. The content of $NH_4-N$ in soil at 5th leaf stage was higher in top dressing plots(T2, T3) compared with basal application(T1), at 7th leaf stage it was most in top dressed at 3rd leaf and 5th leaf stage, but there was no difference at heading stage. Amount of nitrogen uptake and nitrogen use efficiency was higher in the order of T3, T2 and T1(basal application). Spikelet number per unit area was more in the order of T3, T2 and T1, but rate of ripened grain and 1,000 grain weight were not significantly different among three nitrogen split application methods. Milled rice yields were higher in top dressed plots compared with basal nitrogen application plots. From the results of this experiment, reasonable nitrogen split application method for early dry seeding culture of rice could be 40-30-30% of total nitrogen at 3rd leaf, 7th leaf and panicle formation stage.

1. In pot exreriments, the leaf blades of rice plants grown on Akiochi soil were weakened and the leaves dropped noticeably. This phenomenon could be prevented with application of silicate materials such as potassium silicate, Wallastonite and silicate slag (normally used silicate fertilizer in Korea). 2. Grain yield was increased by application of all the silicate materials. The effect of wollastonite was not lower than the effect of silicate slag. 3. Basal application of wollastonite gives a higher effect on the grain yield than top dressing. With higher wollastonite application, the nitrogen effect on the grain yield increases. This increase in nitrogen effect becomes more pronounced when the nitrogen level is higher. 4. Silica content in the plant waas increased by application of silicate materials to the soil. The increase in silica content in the plant was most noticeable with wollastonite. Basal application of wollastonite proved to be more effective than top dressing. Iron and nitrogen content in the plant decreased by application of the silicate materials. 5. The application of the silicate materials to Akiochi soil increases the resistance of rice to leaf blast, neck blast and Helminthosporium leaf spot. Among the silicate materials, wollastonite was most effective. 6. Damage by leaf blast increased proportionally with the nitrogen level, but decreased clearly with increase in wollastonite level. This phenomon was most pronounced for late transplanting time. 7. Damage by Helminthosporium leaf spot was also proportionally reduced by wollastonite application.

To investigate the changes of $NH_4-N$ in soil, nitrogen uptake by rice plant, nitrogen use efficiency and rice yield by the application of Latex Coated Urea(LCU) on direct seeding rice, rice was planted on paddy field, Jeonbuk series at the Honam area, from 1996 to 1997. Nitrogen in LCU applied as basal dressing in whole layer was dissolved almost untill non-productive stage. Thus, nitrogen deficiency symptom appeared and N in shoot was 1.75% showing 28.1 of SPAD value at heading stage. However percentage recovery of fertilizer N was higher in LCU than with urea application. Top dressing of urea at panicle initiation stage in addition to basal dressing of LCU, increased rice yield by 9%. Conventional split application of urea on the surface decreased the percentage recovery of fertilizer N to 56.9% of whole layer application plot.

The objectives of this study were conducted to determine the effects of two chemical amendments on volatile fatty acids (VFA) and nitrogen contents in poultry litter after broiler chicks were raised in poultry houses for 6 weeks. Two different additives were applied as a top dressing to the litter at a rate of $AlCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ (200 g)+$CaCO_3$ (50 g) or Alum (200 g)+$CaCO_3$ (50 g)/kg of rice bran; untreated litter served as controls. Application of $AlCl_3+CaCO_3$ and Alum+$CaCO_3$ reduced total VFA contents by 67% and 51% at 6 weeks, respectively, compard to the control groups. The decrease in litter pH with two chemical treatments results in decreased proportion of VFA and increased nitrogen contents of the litter. These results indicate that treating $AlCl_3+CaCO_3$ and Alum+$CaCO_3$ to poultry litter offers the potential for reducing an environmental impact.

Mineral contents of sail in two-year-old ginseng plantation. of the top-dressings for ginseng and of the green grasses (Chung-Cho) were analyzed in order to clarify budget of inorganic nutrients of ginseng Plant. The amount of mineral nutrients contained in soil of two-year-old ginseng plantation had 56 times of nitrogen, 1.2 times of phosphorus and 20 times of potassium as compared with the requisition of two to sin-year-old ginseng plants per $\textrm{m}^2$. In consideration of the lack of phosphorus, it is recommendable to use bone mill as top dressing, which contains higher content of Phosphorus than ether top-dressings.
