The higher fertilizer application level and frequency of additional fertilizer increase the higher the growing characters of plant height, No. of leaves, No. of stem per plant, and No. of ears per main stem, etc., appeared. The yield characters of No. of grains per plant, percentage of threshing, weight of 1 $\ell$, weight of 100 grains and seed yield per 10a appeared high both in used N 14kg, 40% as the basic dressing, 30% as the 1st top dressing, 20% as the 2nd top dressing and 10% as the 3rd top dressing, and in used N 18kg as the total amount of basic dressing. Dispersion analysis showed the difference of significant level according to the interactions, among fertilizer application levels, among fertilizational methods, and between fertilizer application and fertilizational method.

In order to obtain information necessary for attaining maximum yield of rice by increasing nitrogen efficiency, effects of top dressing of nitrogen fertilizer at the later part of growing season were investigated and results obtained are summurized as follows: 1. The increased application of nitrogen fertilizer was very effective in increasing leaf areas and net assimilation rate of rice plants. The spikelets number per hill was also increased due to heavy nitrogen fertilizer. 2. The concentrated top dressing at the later part of plant growth apparently increased the crop growth rate at the reproduction stage and ripening stage of rice, respectively. The nitrogen efficiency was greatly improved by the concentrated top nitrogen dressing through the increase of effective tiller number and the improvement of production organ to non productive organ ratio. 3. The concentrated top nitrogen dressing at the later growing season was considered to be one of the most effective methods of fertilizer applications as well as cultivation of fertilizer resistant varieties for the high yield of rice and improving soil fertility.

This experiment was carried out in order to study the effect of organic fertilizer on the growth of Korean lawngrass (Zoysia matrella L. Merr.) and the change of soil chemical characteristics. The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1. Organic fertilizer was appropriate for base-dressing in the sod establishment of Korean lawngrass(Z. matrella L. Merr.) 2. Chlorophyll contents in mixed application plot of complex fertilizer(21-17-17) and organic fertilizer were more abundant than that in single application plot of organic fertilizer. 3. Application of organic fertilizer promotes the contents of available phosphorous in soil. 4. Dry weights of base-dressing and top-dressing plot had more weight about 40%, 12% than that of control plot, respectively. So base-dressing was more effective than top-dressing in the application of organic fertilizer.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of nitrogen top-dressing and Jangyeopkong was planted under two different seeding time (single cropping-May 15, after barley cropping-June 18), four levels of nitrogen top-dressing (0, 3, 6, 9 kg/10a) and two times of nitrogen top-dressing (Hilling time, Flowering Time). The results obtained are summarized as follow: 1. The days to flowering and maturity were delayed a day longer in hilling times than flowering times of nitrogen top-dressing. 2. The number of nodes of main stem and length of internodes didn't show significance among treatments. But, the number of nodes of branches was much higher when the soybean was planted on May 15, and were higher hilling time than flowering time as the amount of nitrogen top-dressing increased. Especially, the number of nodes of branches was high when 6kg of nitrogen was applied during hilling time. 3. The fresh and dry weight of stem and leaves at 10, 25 and 40 days after flowering were increased by increasing the amount of nitrogen top-dressing. More apparent effect of nitrogen was attained high significant when nitrogen was applied at the time of hilling rather than flowering time. 4. The number and fresh weight of nodule, and dry weight were apparently decreased after barley and were decreased according to the increasing the amount of nitrogen top dressing. The degrees of decreasing was more apparent in the hilling time than in the flowering time. 5. The number of pods per plant, and number and weight of grain per plant were higher when the soybean was planted on May 15, the amount of top dressing increased and hilling time rather than flowering time. Especially, yield component were highest when 6kg of nitrogen was applied during hilling time. Also, the grain yield per 10a showed high significance among treatment, and were high when 6kg of nitrogen was applied during hilling time.

Perilla is an excellent oil crop for linolenic acid production but still needs more research to improve grain yield and chemical properties. We tried to estimate the possibility for improving grain yield and its quality by applying nitrogen top dressing(4kg per 10a) at 5 days after flowering stage of perilla, using a cultivar Yujin. This study investigated the growth characteristics and seed quality. Nitrogen top dressing on the flowering stage has little affected on such traits as length, node number and diameter of main stem, and branch, cluster and capsules numbers per plant. But compared with standard cultivation as a control, top dressing showed more leaf chlorophyll content by 85%, higher 1000-grain-weight by 31%, and one day extension of maturing period; consequently, grain outyielded by 60% with 123kg per 10a. Seed chemical components also showed 33.3% protein and 48% oil contents that were 11.5% and 6.2% higher than those of control, respectively. Also by top dressing, saturated fatty acid (palmitic and stearic acid) decreased and linoleic acid among unsaturated fatty acids increased. It is concluded that nitrogen topdressing at late flowering stage promotes grain yield and quality of perilla.

In order to confirm the effect of potash top dressing and to observe the effect of N, K compound fertilizers, 17-0-17, 17-0-14, and 15-0-20, specially prepared for top dressing to rice, a field experiment with rice (Oryza Sativa L., Akibare) was conducted in a poorly drained paddy field in comparison with potassium chloride. The results obtained are as follows, 1. The effect of potash top dressing to rice was so remarkable that the yield from the plots of split application of muliate potassium or compound fertilizer was significantly higher than that from the plot received no potash at all. In contrast, the plots received all the amount of potash as one dose at transplanting time showed no significant increase in yield compared with that of potash plot. 2, The effect of N, K compound fertilizer, granulated to about the size of a small bean appeared to be so slow that it gave little increase of yield when it was appiled as a top dressing at the primodial stage, but it gave an increase of yield when it was top dressed at effective tillering stage. 3, Granular N, K compound fertilizer to be top dressed at primodial stage might be prepared in small size so that the fertilizer readily go into solution when it was applied, otherwise the fertilizer should be applied eariler than the primodial stage.

Recently, wheat consumption has been increasing in Korea, requiring increased production. Nitrogen fertilization is a critical determinant in crop yield; therefore, it is necessary to optimize the nitrogen fertilization regime with current trends that emphasize the minimum impact of nitrogen fertilizer on the environment. In this study, both nondestructive spectral analysis using a hyperspectral camera and growth analysis were performed to determine the optimal N top-dressing rates after heading. The nitrogen application regimes consisted of three conditions according to the secondary top-dressing rate: N_4:3:0 (0 kg 10 a^-1), N_4:3:3 (2.73 kg 10 a^-1), and N_4:3:6 (5.46 kg 10 a^-1). Subsequently, growth and physiological investigations were performed at the jointing, heading, and ripening stages of wheat, and spectral investigations were conducted. On April 29, as the nitrogen fertilization rate was increased to N_4:3:3 and N_4:3:6, plant height and grain yield increased by 4% and 8%, and 8% and 52%, respectively, compared to those under N_4:3:0. Leaf area index and SPAD value also increased by 13% and 24%, and 32% and 43%, respectively. The R (red), G (green), and B (blue) of leaf color were lowered by 15, 11, and 4 in N_4:3:3 and 44, 34, and 18 in N_4:3:6, respectively, as compared to the control. Grain yield was the highest at high top-dressing (N_4:3:6), however, there was no difference between no top-dressing (N_4:3:0) and intermediat top-dressing (N_4:3:3). The reflectance analyzed using a hyperspectral camera showed a difference in the near-infrared (NIR) region on March 19, and on April 29, there was a difference both in the visible light region greater than 550 nm and the NIR region. Vegetation indices differed according to fertilization regime, except for the greenness index (GI). The results of this study showed that not only growth and physiological analysis but also spectral indices can be used to optimize the nitrogen top-dressing rate.

Two methods of nitrogen application at the 4th leaf stage were evaluated in direct-seeding rice cultivation on dry paddy soil: one was the top dressing of nitrogen on dry paddy condition before irrigation (TNDP) for labor saving, and the other was the top dressing of nitrogen on dry paddy with mechanical rotavation of the inter-row space (TNDPIR) for increasing the efficiency of nitrogen. To evaluate these two application methods, leaf chlorophyll contents, growth characteristics and yields were compared with two conventional methods, basal application (BA) and top dressing on flooded paddy condition at the 4th leaf stage (TNFP). The SPAD value of rice in TNDP was similar with that in TNFP throughout the whole growth stage of rice. Also, there were no differences in rice growth and yield between the two methods. However, in TNDPIR, the SPAD value was the highest during tillering stage among the four application methods, and the tiller number, LAI at heading stage and the panicle number were higher than the two conventional methods.

The experiment were carried out to determine the rate of regrowth, the changes of carbohydrates contained in the samples right after cutting, plant part for storage of carbohydtates and top-dressing time of ladino clover and orchardgrass. Plants were grown in the simple growth chamber as well as in the fields. The temperature, light intensity and light period were controlled to be 15-20$^{\circ}$, 4,250 Lux, and 15 hours in the simple growth chamber. The results obtained are as follows ; 1. The period of recovery to initial stands after cutting was about 3 weeks in ladino clover and 4-5 weeks in orchard grass in terms of dry matter and carbohydrates. 2. The content of total water-soluble carbohydrates of plant parts was the hightest in stolon of ladino clover and in sheath of orchardgrass, and the lowest in roots of ladino clover and orchardgrass. 3. Cutting resulted in a temporary decrease of total water-soluble carbohydrates in the shoots. Similar trends were observed when the plants were left intact with top-dressing. 4. The top-dressing applied simultalliousely with the cutting was more effective to stimu1ate regrowth than that applied after cutting, however, both of the simultaneous and after cutting application were still better than application prior to cutting.
