농업용 무인멀티콥터를 활용한 방제면적은 수도작은 물론 밭작물에서도 방제 범위가 확대되고 있다. 밭작물은 작물의 형태가 다양하여 비행속도, 살포높이 등을 최적화하는 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 배추, 대파, 고추에서 발생하는 나방류에 대하여 무인멀티콥터의 살포 높이에 따른 방제효과를 확인하였다. 살포된 약제가 작물에 부착되는 정도를 조사한 결과, 배추는 2m, 대파는 3~4m, 고추는 모든 높이에서 비슷한 부착정도를 보였지만, 전체적으로 부착량이 적고 불균일 하였다. 살포 높이별 방제효과는 작물별로 각각 배추(9~10엽기)는 2m높이, 고추(약 1.2m)는 2~3m, 대파(약 60cm)는 2, 3, 4m 각각 비등한 방제효과를 보였다. 각각의 작물모두 경엽처리 대비 약효가 미흡하였으며, 고추는 4m높이 살포시 방제효과가 현저히 낮았다.

This study was carried out to explore possibilities of cultivating horticultural crops in the air-dome greenhouse in comparison to the common iron-frame greenhouse as the standard. The levels of carbon dioxide and atmospheric pressure measured inside the air-dome greenhouse turned out to be higher than those measured inside the iron-frame greenhouse. Contrastingly, light intensity was relatively weaker inside the air-dome greenhouse due to the air-inflated double layers. Plants of melon and cherry tomato were cultivated from May 2 to August 12, 2016, respectively in the two greenhouses. For melon plants, growth in the air-dome greenhouse effectively increased fruit weight as well as trunk circumference compared to iron-frame greenhouse. Moreover, soluble sugar content of melon fruit was significantly higher when cultivated in the air-dome greenhouse. For cherry tomato plants, fruit yield of cherry tomato was significantly increased inside the air-dome greenhouse. Furthermore, it has been found that the air-dome greenhouse was considerably effective in shortening the growing period of melon and cherry tomato plants in comparison to the iron-frame greenhouse.

산성광산배수(acid mine drainage, AMD)는 가행탄광 또는 폐광지에서 지속적으로 수질 및 토양 환경오염을 일으키는 오염원이다. 산성광산배수를 무해화 하기 위한 많은 공법들이 연구되고 개발되었다. 산성광산배수는 대기 중에 노출된 황철석(FeS2), 백철석(FeS) 등의 황화광물이 산소 및 물과 반응하여 산화되면서 형성되며, pH가 낮아 산성을 띠고 있으며, 황산염을 비롯한 철, 알루미늄, 망간 등 금속함량이 높은 것이 특징이다. 산성광산배수의 처리방법은 크게 적극적 처리법(active treatment)과 소극적 처리법(passive treatment)으로 나누어진다. 적극적 처리법은 중화제를 이용한 pH 조절, 이온교환과 흡착, 응집, 여과 등의 방식을 이용하는 방법으로서, 대표적인 적극적 처리법으로는 역삼투압법, 이온교환법, 전기투석법 등이 있다. 소극적 처리법은 유기물과 석회석 등을 이용하여 동력을 투여하지 않는 방식으로 대표적인 소극적 처리법으로는 SAPS (successive alkalinity-producing systems) 등이 있다. 특히, 소석회(Ca(OH)2)를 이용하여 산성광산배수를 중화시켜 산성광산배수에 포함된 금속들을 슬러지로 침전시켜 시멘트 회사 등으로 운송되어 폐기물로 처리하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 산성광산배수에서 폐기물로 처리되는 산성광산 슬러지를 바이오가스 정제 분야 등에 이용할 수 있는 흡착제를 제조하여 폐기되는 슬러지의 배출량을 절감시키는 기술을 적용하여 바이오가스 산업에 경쟁력을 부여하기 위한 결과를 얻었다.

Italian Ryegrass is a high productivity and feed value, and an upright grass that behaves like a biennial or short-lived perennial. It grows vigorously in winter and early spring. Italian ryegrass and a related species, perennial ryegrass, Lolium perenne, are the two common weedy ryegrassses. Italian ryegrass and perennial ryegrass can hybridize, resulting in offspring that are difficult to identify as either species. Ryegrasses are cultivated for turf and forage. Sometimes Italian ryegrass is grown as cover crop. It has the potential to produce high yields and, with proper management, can be high quality with good animal performance. To develop of a high quality, productivity and early variety, 20 varieties examined growth and yield characteristics. The heading date of Green farm with high cold tolerance was on 28 April. Most of Introduced varieties except Grazer have mid and late heading date.

“Onnuri” is a new orchardgrass(Dactylis glomerata L.) variety developed by the National Institue of Animal Science (NIAS) in 2011. To develope the new variety of orchardgrass, 5 superior clones were selected and polycrossed for seed production. Agronomic growth characteristics and forage production of “Onnuri” were examined at Cheonan from 2009 to 2011, and regional trials were conducted in Cheonan, Pyungchang Jinzu and Jeju from 2009 to 2011, respectively. “Onnuri” showed medium type growth habit in fall and spring and medium in length of flag leaf and long upper internode. Plant height of “Onnuri” was more than 10cm that of standard variety, “Amba” and heading date was 5 days earlyer than 16th May compared to Amba. Characteristics such as waterlogging, disease resistance of “Onnuri” were stronger or better than those of Amba, specially “Onnuri” showed 18% higher dry matter yield (14,775kg/ha) compared to Amaba(12,523kg/ha). Nutritive value was appeared to be similar in both varieties.
