이 연구에서는 경영체DB와 토양DB로 구성된 농업빅데이터와 성주군 참외와 경산시 복숭아 경영성과 자료를 활용하여 품목별 단위 생산성을 예측하였다. 또한 추정결과와 품목별 판매단가를 적용하여 휴· 폐경지역 해당 품목 도입 시 효과를 살펴보았다. 분석결과를 요약하면 첫째, 참외는 적지와 비적지 단위생산성에 차이가 존재하였고, 복숭아는 판매가격에 차이가 존재하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 둘째, 참외의 적지 생산성이 비적지보다 높게 나타나며, 배수가 잘 될수록 생산성이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있 었다. 셋째, 복숭아는 사토일수록 생산성이 감소하는 것을 알 수 있으며, 경사가 낮을수록 생산성이 증 가하는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 참외의 휴·폐경 활용효과는 총 488.4백만원으로 추정되었고, 복숭아의 휴·폐경 활용효과는 총 745백만원으로 추정되었다.

This study analyzed factors influencing cultivation area of two major apple cultivars, Fuji and Hongro, applying the panel SUR model to survey data from farms. Characteristics of farms, distribution factors, and weather factors were the independent variables of the model. The analysis indicated that characteristics of farms, distribution factors, and weather factors influence the cultivation area of Hongro and Fuji. The independent variables were also found to have different levels of influence on increase and decrease of the cultivated area. Helping predict changes in cultivation area of Hongro and Fuji, the research results can be used as primary data to support efforts to prevent price fluctuations due to changes in supply.

Background : Angelica dahurica is the dried root of Angelica dahurica Bentham et Hooker f., a perennial plant belonging to the Umbelliferae family. Since its peak at 63 hectares in 2000, the cultivated area of Angelica dahurica dropped to its lowest level at 14 hectares in 2014 although there had been a short bounce back to 59 hectares in 2007. The decrease in the cultivated area has created a vicious cycle where even a small change in production amounts causes Angelica dahurica prices to fluctuate, leading farmers to become reluctant to cultivate the species. Therefore, this study aims to provide growers with new information on Angelica dahurica cultivation technology development, based on surveys and analyses of the difficulties and needs the farmers have. Methods and Results : Setting the nationwide Angelica dahurica farming households as the population, this study looked into 11 households of growers from main producing areas including Yeongju, Yeongcheon, and Bonghwa. Researchers carried out the survey by visiting the farmers and conducting face-to-face interviews using a prepared questionnaire. The survey was conducted for 2 months (from July to August 2016) to identify difficulties and specific characteristics of farming Angelica dahurica. SAS 9.2 was used for the statistical analysis. Conclusion : The surveyed types of difficulties identified were varieties, seeding, fertilization, pests, water management, weeding, soil, and drying. The results indicate that seeding (2.2) is the most serious difficulty, and water management (2.5), weeding (3.1), fertilization (3.7), pests (3.9) and others followed. Regarding specific technical problems, browning roots in the process of drying (61.5%) was the biggest concern along with germination after seeding (23.1%) and water management in the fields (15.4%). In response to the question about their willingness to expand farming in the future, no households showed intentions of expansion, while 36.4% reported intentions to reduce and 63.6% to maintain their current Angelica dahurica cultivation. The causes of weakening supply include low prices (54.5%), unreasonable pricing (36.4%), and difficulties in selling due to lack of retailers. Therefore, it seems necessary for the government to support sustainable Angelica dahurica farming by taking measures such as contract farming with herbal medicine circles, a minimum production cost guarantee system, or joint purchasing by the Agricultural Cooperative Association.

The main purpose of this study is to provide the back-from-city farmers with the information about the melon cultivation technology by surveying 268 farm houses in the major melon producing districts such as Seongju and Chilgok. For the purpose, this study classifies the essential technologies that the melon experts think as most important into 6 categories: size of plastic film house, covering film, varieties of oriental melon, lagging cover, ventilation method and ways to reduce repeated-cultivation damage. The result of the study shows that the back-from-city farmers should consider the following items when they choose to cultivate oriental melons. For the size of plastic film house, the ventilation method and the covering film of plastic film house, it is better to choose the latest technology. Even though it may require larger initial investment, the latest technology can increase the production and lower the cost. In case of variety, it is better to choose popular or the most widely grown ones rather than the new ones. The lagging cover should be selected in consideration of climate conditions such as average temperature and humidity, transplant time and harvest time of the farming region.
