This study was carried out to find cultivation condition of peony in Euiseong district from 1994 to 1995. 1. Age distribution in cultivation of peony was from 30's to 50's and cultivated years was mainly from 5 years to 10 years, but there was more than 15 years 2. Cultivating area per house hold were 1300 pyeong average, there were moderate 400~]1000 pyeong and also those are occupied 22.6% more than 2000 pyeong. 3. The mothods of transplanting in Euiseong peony which Euiseong district was mostly divided peony but Yeongchen district used seedling stock. No. of sprout was mostly 3~4 and planting time was mainly from Mid to Late of October. 4. The percentage of sterilization of soil and seedling stock was 77. 4%, in mulching by vinyl in tran­splanting 64. 5% in black vinyl and 25. 8% in white one. 5. Number of plant in peony planting was 3000~4000 plant per l0a even more there was more than 8000 plant. 6. Chemical spraying time in peony field was 2 time in 1~2 years cultivating, and 3~4 time in 3~4 years one. 7. Condition of fertilizer application in peony field was 40% in non-application, but 56.7~76.7% in 2 year to 3 years, and the time of fertilizer was mainly 3 time. 8. Drying time peony after havesting was from 12 to 24 hours by briquet stove and 24 hours by ma­chine of hot wind, also dry method of peony was mixed briquet stove and hot wind machine.

작약은 다년생 약초로 토양선충에 의한 지하부피해가 많으므로 간작 작부체계에의한 선충피해를 경감할수 있는 재배기술을 개발하고자 관련시험을 수행한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 작약포장에 서식하는 선충의 종류는 뿌리혹선충, 줄기구근전충, 아엽전충, 뿌리썩이선충, 검선충 등이 있었으며 피해 우점선충은 뿌리혹선충이었다. 2. 작약단작, 작약+고추 및 작약+지황 간작작부제계의 뿌리혹선충 밀도는 큰 차이가 없었으나 작약+참깨, 작약+율무 간작체계에서는 뿌리혹선충 밀도가 작약단작 작부체계에 비해 87%의 감소효과를 보여 선충피해가 우려되는 포장에서는 작약과 참깨 또는 율무를 간작하는 체계가 바람직한 것으로 나타났다. 3.작약의 지상부 병해로는 점무늬병, 흰가루병, 탄저병이 우점하였으며 처리간 점무늬병과 탄저병 발생정도는 비슷하였으나 흰가루병은 작약+고추와 작약+율무 간작사에 발병이 감소하는 경향을 보였다.
