최근 국내 멧돼지 문제는 농작물 피해 및 도심 출몰로 인하여 사회적으로 심각한 상황에 직면해 있다. 본 연구는 경남 거창군의 멧돼지에 의한 농작물 피해사례를 바탕으로 피해에 영향을 끼치는 환경 요인들에 대하여 파악하고자 2012년 5월부터 10월까지 수행 되었다. 농작물 피해 분석 결과 주로 8월과 9월 사이 피해가 가장 많이 발생하였고, 벼의 빈도가 가장 높았으며 피해 강도는 고구마가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 멧돼지의 농작물 선호성과 특정시기에 대한 가용성과 관련이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 또한 농작물 피해에 경사, 지형기복, 산림과의 거리, 수계로부터의 거리, 도로로부터의 거리, 주거지로부터의 거리의 요인들이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 피해 강도에 따른 환경요인의 차이는 나타지 않아 멧돼지는 한번 피해를 끼친 농경지를 지속적으로 방문하여 피해를 누적 시키는 것으로 파악된다. 따라서 멧돼지에 의한 농작물 피해를 저감시키기 위해서는 피해가 발생할 수 있는 곳에 멧돼지가 비선호하는 작물로 대체 재배하며 전기펜스 설치, 엽사와 포획틀을 이용한 멧돼지 개체수 조절이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

콩명나방(Maruca vitrata)은 열대ꞏ아열대성 해충으로 콩의 주요 해충으로 알려져 있으나 국내에서는 팥에서 피해가 큰 해충이다. 콩명나방의 유충에 콩과작물인 콩(대두, 소청자, 풍산나물콩), 팥(홍언), 동부(장채)와 인공사료를 각각 먹이로 제공하여 콩명나방의 발육상을 조사하였다. 조사결과 인공사료를 먹이로 제공한 콩명나방 유충의 용화율과 우화율이 가장 높았고 다음으로 팥과 풍산나물콩을 먹이로 제공했을 때 용화율과 우화율이 높았다. 장채의 경우 유충이 한 마리도 용화하지 못했다. 콩명나방 유충이 용화까지 걸리는 기간은 인공사료를 먹이로 제공했을 때 가장 짧았고 다음으로 팥과 풍산나물콩을 먹이로 제공했을 때 짧았다. 용의 무게 또한 인공사료를 먹이로 제공했을 때 가장 높았고 다음으로 팥과 풍산나물콩을 먹이로 제공했을 때 높았다. 실험결과 팥 이외에 콩과작물에서도 유충이 성충까지 우화할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of equation being used to estimate the total digestible nutrients (TDN) of whole crop rice silage (WCRS) in sheep. To compare the observed and estimated TDN contents [estimated TDN content=87.57-(0.737×ADF)], two varieties of WCRS from Nokyang (NS) and Samgwang (SS) as forage and food source, respectively, were used as a treatment. Nine female Corriedale sheep (average body weight: 49.2±6.3 kg) were used as the experimental animals. The ewes were fed according to their nutrient requirements at the maintenance level. To check the difference between the observed and estimated TDN contents, one sample non-parametric t-test was applied. The CP, NFE and CF contents of the NS were 43.6, 74.2 and 64.2%, respectively, and that of the SS were 46.2, 58.1 and 44.9%, respectively. The observed and estimated TDN contents of the NS were 63.5 and 61.5%, where there was no significant difference. The observed and estimated TDN contents of the SS were 48.9 and 59.0%, where there was significant difference (p<0.05) This research confirmed the validity of TDN estimation equation being used for estimation of TDN of WCRS as forage source, but further research is recommended on the equation for estimating TDN contents of WCRS as food source.

This study was conducted to investigate the feed value and silage quality according to storage period and film layers in whole crop oat silage. The crude protein content was increased in all silage during the storage periods compared to those before silage, under prolonged storage period slightly and the number of film layers of silage, six layer were higher than four layers, but no significant. NDF and ADF contents were also increased in all silage of storage duration compared to those before silage, but they was similar level between storage duration and number of film layers. TDN content was decreased of the storage duration. However, it was similar under the storage duration and the number of film layers. The pH value was decreased during prolonged storage period and six layers was lower than four layers depending on the film layers. In the organic acid contents, lactic acid and acetic acid were increased under the prolonged storage duration, and butyric acid was higher significantly(p<0.05), six layers of the film were showed higher lactic acid and lower butyric acid(p<0.05). Therefore, oat silage should be used within 6 months it was when treated with 4 layers, if considering the long-term storage, it is desirable to treat it with 6 layers or more.

본 연구에서는 온실의 구조설계용 작물하중을 산정하는데 필요한 기초자료를 제공하기 위하여 각국의 온실구조설계용 작물하중 기준들을 비교분석하고 여러 가지 온실작물들에 대하여 작물하중을 직접 측정하고 분석하였다. 설계 작물하중에 대한 각국의 기준들을 비교분석한 결과 나라들 마다 서로 많은 차이를 보여주고 있으며, 우리나라 기준들은 외국의 기준들을 그대로 인용하고 있는 것으로 나타나 우리나라 실정에 맞는 작물하중 기준이 제시될 필요가 있다고 판단된다. 최대 주당 작물하중이 토마토는 두 가지 온실에서 각각 3.3kgf·plant-1와 3.9kgf·plant-1로 나타났고, 오이는 0.75kgf·plant-1, 가지는 1.9kgf·plant-1, 딸기는 재배베드를 포함하여 2.1kgf·plant-1 으로 나타났다. 단위면적당 작물하중은 토마토가 평균 8.5kgf·m-2으로 나타났고, 오이와 가지는 각각 2.1kgf·m-2 과 2.4kgf·m-2으로 토마토의 하중보다 훨씬 낮게 나타났다. 우리나라 온실설계기준에 제시된 작물하중은 토마토와 오이의 경우 15kgf·m-2으로 본 연구에서 측정된 값보다 훨씬 높았다. 우리나라의 설계기준이 네덜란드의 기준을 그대로 인용한 것으로 판단되기 때문에 이러한 차이를 고려하여 우리나라의 작물하중 설계기준에 대한 재검토가 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다. 딸기의 작물하 중은 행잉베드를 포함한 중량이 21.0kgf·m-2로 네덜란드의 설계기준인 30kgf·m-2보다 훨씬 작았다.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimal harvesting time, feed value and fermentation quality of barley and wheat for the making of chopped whole crop silage substitute for formula feed. As a result, the moisture content of barley and wheat decreased with a late harvest, and barley progressed faster than wheat. The plant height was similar with harvesting time, and the number of spikes decreased with prolonged period after heading. The dry matter yield and TDN yield of barley harvested at 35 and 40 days after heading were significantly higher than those at 30 days after heading and wheat was significantly higher at 40 and 45 days than at 35 day after heading(P<0.05). Crude protein content of barley and wheat were increased with later harvesting time, and crude fiber, crude fat and crude ash were slightly decreased, but not statistically significant. NDF and ADF content of barley decreased with later harvesting time, and those showed similar level in wheat. TDN content of barely was slightly increased but there was no difference in wheat. Comparing the effects of fermentation on feed value of chopped whole crop silage, the approximate compositions were slightly increased after fermentation, but the difference was not significant. Fermentations resulted in increasing the pH value of barley silage with late harvesting time, but decreasing the lactic acid content(p<0.05). A pH value of wheat silage showed similar level in different harvest time, and lactic acid content was decreased. Considering the quantity and quality of fermentation, barley and wheat can be used for making chopped silage of whole crop silage when they were harvested at 35 days and 40~45 days after heading, respectively.

To evaluate performance of the experimental pick-up type pulse crop harvester for harvesting sprout bean, its pick-up and discharging grain loss ratios, grain quality such as whole grain ratio, damaged grain ratio, unthreshed grain, and foreign material ratio in grain tank, germination rate of threshed grain, and theoretical field capacity of the harvester were analyzed according to engine speeds of 2000, 2400 and 2800 rpm and harvesting speeds of 0.6, 1.0 and 1.4 m/s. It is considered that the harvester showed optimum performance at the engine speed of 2800 rpm and the harvesting speed of 1.0 m/s, and then average pick-up grain loss ratio of 2.7%, discharging grain loss ratio of 0.5%, whole grain ratio of 99.3%, damaged grain ratio of 0.2%, unthreshed grain ratio of 0.0%, foreign material ratio of 0.2%, and germination rate at 8 days after seeding of 72.8% were shown. It is considered that the harvester has lower grain loss and higher grain quality than the imported bean combines. And also as it could harvest 3 rows of cut and dried sprout bean crop width of which was about 2 m, its effective field capacity was estimated for about 50 a/h.

One of the dramatic changes we are faced with is ever fast growing population on the earth, which is anticipated to reach 10 billion by 2050, according to the report from UN. On the top of that, we need to address the issue of global warming, changes in consumption pattern and decrease in farmlands. These challenges ask us to achieve 60% increase in agricultural productivity to secure enough food to support the world population (Climate change and food security, FAO, 2016). The crop protection industry develops new products from various chemical families and different modes of action. The new products should have not only excellent biological activities, but also favorable toxicological profile to keep diversity in ecosystem and meet very strict regulatory requirements. Also should be active enough to control resistant pests, diseases and weeds. The crop protection products are very useful tool to secure stable food supply, if used in recommended way according to the product label.

This study investigated the chemical composition of Petasites japonicus (S. et Z.) Maxim essential oil. During the period 2011~2013, P. japonicus (S. et Z.) Maxim plant was investigated for composition of the essential oil. Chemical composition and characteristic compounds of the essential oils from the aerial parts of the plant according to the crop year studied. The essential oils consisted of sesquiterpene compounds, which were the most abundant components. Samples collected in 2011 were found to be richer in oxygenated sesquiterpenes, while samples collected in 2012 and 2013 were richer in diterpene alcohols and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, respectively. Ninety-two compounds were identified in the P. japonicus (S. et Z.) Maxim essential oil of 2011, and caryophyllene oxide (20.49%), β-caryophyllene (10.28%), β-bisabolene (6.80%), and alloaromadendrene (6.50%) were the major compounds. Seventy-four compounds were identified in the plant essential oil of 2012, and phytol (17.22%), α-farnesene (15.31%), α-caryophyllene (9.93%), and β-caryophyllene (6.12%) were the major compounds. Ninety-two compounds were identified in the plant essential oil of 2013, and α-farnesene (22.42%), α- caryophyllene (21.49%), pentadecane (15.35%), and germacrene (5.70%) were the major compounds. The content of most of the chemical constituents varied significantly with different harvesting time. The content of α-caryophyllene and caryophyllene oxide was increased significantly from 2011 to 2013. The content of α-caryophyllene and isocaryophyllene was decreased significantly from 2011 to 2013.

The objective of this study was to efficiently produce forage crop seed of spring oat (Avena sativa L., cultivar High Speed) in Gyeongbuk area. Forage crop oats (130 kg/ha) were sown with a randomized block design. They were sown in triplicates in 2015 and 2016 using basal fertilizer of 70 kg N, 74 kg P, and 39 kg K/ha. Agronomic traits and seed production of oats were investigated to determine the influence of seeding dates (February 28/29th, March 10th, and March 20th). Heading, flowering, and maturing dates of these oats sown on February 28/29th and March 10th were almost close to each other with 1-2 days of difference for all test plots. For oats sown on the last day (28/29) of Feb., plant heights (111.6-122.6 cm) were significantly longer than those sown in March each year. In addition, panicle number (416.7 per m2) and panicle length (17.3 cm) of oats sown on the last day of February were also significantly (p < 0.05) larger than those of oats sown in March in 2015 and 2016, respectively. Based on these results, it is recommended to sow these oats on the last day of February to have better agronomic traits in terms of plant height, stem length, panicle length, and panicle number per m2. Grain numbers (56.3 and 63.3) and kernel weights (1.72 and 2.00 g) per spike in plots of oats sown on the last day of February were also significantly (p < 0.05) larger than those of oats in other plots in 2016 and in the average of 2015~2016, respectively. The highest grain yield (6,243 kg/ha) was obtained when oats were sown on the last day of February. Feed value of harvested oats was good in terms of proximate compositions including fiber contents and TDN contents. In conclusion, sowing on the last day of February is the most effective way to increase seed production of spring oats in Gyeongbuk area of Korea.

This study was conducted to evaluate the possibility of expanding the usage of whole crop silage from beef cattle and dairy cow to hogs and chickens. For this purpose, a crushing device was developed to crush whole crop silage. The crushed silage was sealed, and analyzed for its feed value. The silage varieties used for the experiment included Saessal barley and Geumgang wheat. Whole crop barley and wheat were crushed in the crushing system as a whole without separating stems, leaves, grains, etc.. When the crushed whole crop silages (CWCS) were analyzed, full grain, grains above 10 mm in size, grains 5～10 mm in size, and grains below 5 mm in size accounted for, 20%, 4%, 27%, and 49 %, respectively. In order to facilitate the fermentation of CWCS, inoculated some fermenter into each CWCS sample (barley or wheat). As control, another set of sample was not inoculated. Crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), lignin, cellulose content, total digestible nutrient (TDN), and relative feed value (RFV) of fermenter-inoculated Saessal barley were 2.45 %, 1.61%, 8.95%, 16.94%, 9.52%, 1.01%, 8.51%, 81.38%, and 447.5%, respectively. The CP, EE, CF, NDF, ADF, lignin, cellulose content, TDN, and RFV in the other sample of Saessal barley without inoculation of fermenter were 2.57%, 1.62%, 9.61%, 18.25%, 10.13%, 1.10%, 9.04%, 80.90%, and 412.9%, respectively. The CP, EE, CF, NDF, ADF, lignin, cellulose content, TDN, and RFV of fermenter-inoculated Geumgang wheat sample were 2.43%, 1.27%, 10.99%, 19.49%, 11.23%, 1.46%, 9.77%, 80.03%, and 382.6%, respectively. The CP, EE, CF, NDF, ADF, lignin, cellulose content, TDN, RFV of the other set sample of Geumgang wheat sample without the inoculation of fermenter were 2.28%, 1.44%, 10.08%, 18.02%, 10.44%, 1.26%, 9.18%, 80.65%, and 416.9%, respectively. The TDN and RFV content in the fermenter-inoculated Saessal barley were 81.38% and 447.5%, respectively, while the one in the fermenter-inoculated Geumgang wheat were 80.03% and 382.6% respectively. When the feed value of whole crop barley and wheat silage without crushing process was compared to the feed value of whole crop barley and wheat silage made from crushing system, the latter appeared to be higher than the former. This could be due to the process of sealing the crushed silage which might have minimized air content between samples and shortened the golden period of fermentation. In conclusion, these results indicate that a crushing process might be needed to facilitate fermentation and improve the quality of silage when making whole crop silage.

To determine the effect of soil salinity and crop response according to drainage methods, a field experiment was conducted in reclaimed tidal flat land adjacent to Yeongsangang located at Sanyimyon Haenamgun Jeonnam province for three years from 2012 to 2014. Three drainage methods, subsurface drainage (SD), 30 cm open ditch drainage (OD30) and 60cm open ditch drainage (OD60) tested on silt loam soil. In SD and ND, soil salinity were lower than OD30 and OD60 but there was no significant soil EC to the depth of open ditch. SD had a little effect in lowering ground water table. Waterlogging intensity in SEW30 values during the growing season was the lowest in SD 297 compared with the OD30 855, ND 1,420 and OD60 1,553 cm-day. From the above results, subsurface drainage system control soil salinity and waterlogging. Also, the open ditch drainage had an effect on drainage improvement but there was no significant effect on desalinization. So drainage and soil reclamation were essentially needed to stable upland crop cultivation at the reclaimed tidal flat land.

The object of this study conducted to investigate the effect of paddy-upland rotation cropping system on soil properties and crop productivity in newly reclaimed tidal land. Five types of paddyupland rotation cropping system were evaluated : Rice-Rice (RR) Rice-Maize (RM), Mize-Maize (MM), Rice-Soybean (RS), Soybean-Soybean (SS). The soil bulk density was the lowest RM treatment, and soil pH was a tendency to be lower in all treatments of the paddy-upland rotation cropping system. RM treatment showed a higher moisture content and lower Electrical conductivity than RR treatment. Results of maize productivity in paddy-upland rotation cropping system, Except for the stem diameter growth, RM treatment showed good growth and productivity than MM treatment. Soybean growth and yield increased in the rotated upland cultivation from rice-paddy field compared to the SS treatment. But, overall treatments indicated poor growth and yield. In this study, we offer the effects of paddyupland rotation cropping system on the soil properties and upland crop growth and yield, and also out results can be provide supporting basic data that introduced paddy-upland rotation in reclaimed tidal land.

온난화와 같은 전지구적 변화는 기온과 강수 등 기상요소에 직접적으로 반영되어 곡물 수확량의 변화를 가져온다. 기후변화 시나리오에 기초한 선행연구들에서는 GCM (general circulation model)의 공간해상도 문제로 인하여 상세한 모의가 어려웠고, 시계열통계법을 활용한 연구들에서는 기후요소를 통합하여 수확량을 예측한 사례가 매우 드물었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 상세화된 기후재분석자료의 시계열모델링을 통하여 옥수수와 콩의 수확량 예측실험을 수행하였다. 미국 아이오와 주의 99개 카운티를 대상으로 1960년부터 2009년까지 50년간의 고해상도 기후재분석자료와 정부통계 수확량 DB를 구축하고, 시계열통계법인 VAR (vector autoregression)와 ARIMA (autoregressive integrated moving average)를 이용하여 다음해 수확량 예측실험을 10개 연도에 대해 수행하여 예측력을 평가하였다. VAR는 16-18%, ARIMA는 11-14% 의 오차율로 다음해의 수확량을 예측할 수 있는 것으로 집계되었으며, 옥수수의 경우 표토의 산성도, 심토의 점토와 나트륨 함유량 등의 토양특성 이 실제 수확량 및 예측정확도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
