We aimed to predict the Italian ryegrass (IRG) productivity change of introduced and domestic varieties based on climate factors and identify suitable areas for IRG cultivation using the RCP 8.5 scenario. The minimum mean air temperature in January showed the highest correlation with productivity. The ratio of possible and low productivity areas was high in Gangwondo, and the ratio of suitable and best suitable areas was relatively high in the central and southern regions in the past 30 years. The change in the IRG cultivation area was found to be 26.9% in the best suitable area between 1981–2010 but increased significantly to 88.9% between 2090s. In the IRG suitability comparison classes between domestic and introduced cultivars, the ratio of suitable and best suitable areas was relatively high in the domestic varieties during the past 30 years. However, there is almost no difference between the IRG domestic and introduced varieties in the IRG suitability classes after the 2050s. These results can predict changes in the IRG suitability classes between domestic and introduced cultivars according to the climate change scenario, but there are limitations in accurately predicting the productivity of IRG because the results may vary depending on other environmental factors.

본 연구는 딸기 ‘매향’의 양수분 흡수율을 고려하여 개발한 배양액을 검증하고자 이온 조성이 다른 5종 배양액으로 8개월 동안 수경재배하면서 생육과 수량에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 2015년 9월 22일 코이어 고설베드에 딸기 묘를 정식하고 1개월 후 다섯 종류의 배양액 농촌진흥청 딸기 배양액(RDA), 야마자키 딸기 배양액(Yamazaki), PBG 딸기 배양액(PBG), 서울시립대 딸기 배양액(UOS) 및 새로 개발된 서울시립대 딸기 배양액(NewUOS)을 사용하여 EC 1.0dS·m-1, pH 6.0으로 1 일 주당 150~300mL 공급하였다. 정식 60일 후 엽폭, 엽병장은 배양액 종류에 차이를 보였으며, 광합성은 RDA와 NewUOS 배양액 처리에서 높았고, PBG 배양액 처리에서 낮았다. 영양생장기 배액의 EC는 공급수준보다 낮은 EC 0.7~0.8dS·m-1, 이후는 EC 1.0~1.2dS·m-1로 안정되었다. 배액 pH는 Yamazaki 배양액 처리에서 6.2~6.8로 높은 반면, UOS 배양액은 5.1~5.2로 낮았다. 영양생장기 배액의 무기이온은 질산태 질소의 흡수가 가장 활발하였으며, 화방전개 이후 칼륨 흡수가 NewUOS, UOS 및 Yamazaki 배양액 처리에서 높았다. 정식 6개월 후 지상부와 지하부 생체중과 건물중은 UOS와 NewUOS 배양액에서 높았으며, 지상부 건물율은 Yamazaki 배양액에서 43.5%로 낮았으며, 지하부 건물율은 NewUOS배양액에서 30.6%로 낮았다. 12월부터 2월까지 수확된 딸기의 과장, 과폭, 과중, 당도는 배양액 차이에 의한 유의성은 없으나, NewUOS 배양액에서는 주당 과수와 평균과 중이 높아 수량이 높았다. 3월부터 5월까지 Yamazaki 배양액에서 수확된 딸기는 주당 과수와 수량이 높았다. 따라서 이온 조성 차이에 따른 배양액 5종으로 수경재 배하였을 때 ‘매향’의 생육은 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 시기별 상품성 향상을 위해 정식 후 ~ 2월까지는 NewUOS 배양액을, 고온과 화방당 착과량이 많아지는 3 월 이후에는 Yamazaki 배양액으로 재배하는 것이 적합하리라 본다.

The consumption of pre-treated vegetables (including fresh-cut vegetables) has been significantly increased because of their ease of use for cooking. Vegetable cutting machine has been widely utilized for producing fresh-cut vegetables or agricultural products with different sizes; however, its design standard is not specifically established depending on types of agricultural products. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine mechanical properties (compressive and shear force) of targeted agricultural products (radish, carrot, squash, cucumber, shiitake mushroom and sweet potato) for developing multipurpose vegetable cutting machine. According to ASAE standard (s368.3), compressive and shear force of targeted agricultural products were measured by using custom built UTM (universal testing machine). Shape type of samples and speed ranges (5~15 mm/min) of loading rate on bioyield and shear points were varied by targeted agricultural products. The range of averaged bioyield points of targeted agricultural products were between 7.89 and 146.98 N. On the other hands, their averaged shear points were from 22.50 to 53.47 N. Results clearly showed that the bioyield and shear points of targeted agricultural products were thoroughly affected by their components. As accumulating compressive and shear points of agricultural products, it can be technical feasible to establish the design standard and control mechanism of multipurpose vegetable cutting machine.

The purpose of this study is to find out the activity of gluteus medius muscle by the changes of load given to the upper limbs in single support phase. This study was twenty healthy men from A College. The left gluteus medius muscle was measured using SEMG(surface Electromyogram). Only the left foot was supported, and for the right foot, the right upper limbs were abducted while hip joint and the knee joint were bent at a 90° angle. The study was made by giving weight using dumbbells, depending on the RM of the subject(0RM, 1RM, 3RM, 5RM, 7RM). Gluteus medius muscle showed a large activity for those given weight to the upper limbs(1RM, 3RM, 5RM, 7RM) than that without weight(0RM). There was a significant difference in the activity of gluteus medius muscle between each RM. Gluteus medius muscle is high active when weight is given to the upper limbs in single support phase.

The rice straw managements are essential for maintaining soil fertility as well as reducing chemical fertilizer application in paddy field. A field experiment was conducted on moderately well draining alluvial paddy soil to investigate the decomposition pattern of rice straw. The mesh bags containing the rice straw harvested in the previous year were placed at soil surface and buried into around 10cm depth and recovered periodically for determining the straw decomposition. Pot experiments were conducted to investigate the fates of N released from 15 N-labeled rice straw under different levels of N fertilizer application. The overall decomposition patterns of rice straw were similar for the two incorporation depths in transplanted paddy field. The straw incorporated at transplanting date showed weight loss of about 50%, 70% and 90% after 2 months, 5 months, and 2 years, respectively. The decompositions of straw cell wall components showed somewhat different pattern. The decompositions of cellulose and silica were similar to that of dry weight while the decomposition of lignin was slower than that of cellulose and silica. N was released from rice straw 42% and 65 % of the initial N after one month and after five months, respectively. P release was faster than N release. Recoveries of rice straw-15 N by rice plants were 10.2, 13.4 and 14.9% in 0, 120 and 240 mg N pot-1 , respectively. Soil recoveries of rice straw 15 N were 17.3, 20.6 and 18.9% in 0, 120 and 240mg N pot-1 , respectively.
