본 연구는 스탠다드 국화 ‘백마’의 삽목기간(15, 30, 45일)과 단일처리 시기(정식 후 40, 50, 60, 70일 후)에 따른 버들눈 발생과 절화의 생육에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 실시하였다. 삽목기간이 30일과 45일 처리는 15일 처리보다 초장이 길었고 뿌리수가 많았으나, 잎의 황화현상이 나타났다. 삽목기간이 길수록 정식 후 버들눈 발생률이 높았고, 삽목기간이 45 일 처리에서 버들눈의 발생률이 28.3%로 가장 높았다. 절화의 생육에서 절화장은 삽목기간 15일 처리에서 110.9cm로 가장 길었고, 삽목기간이 길수록 절화장이 짧았다. 절화의 엽수와 무게는 삽목기간 15일 처리에서 가장 양호하였다. 화폭, 설상화 수, 꽃 무게 등 꽃의 생육은 삽목기간이 길어질수록 불량하였고, 꽃목길이는 삽목기간 30일과 45일 처리에서 6.5~8.9cm 로 길게 나타나 절화의 품질이 떨어졌다. 개화소요일수는 다른 처리들보다 삽목기간 45일 처리에서 버들눈 발생으로 인하여 가장 짧았다. 단일처리 시기에 따른 절화의 버들눈 발생률은 정식 60일과 70일 후 단일처리에서 각각 20.1%와 45.8%로 나타나, 정식 40일과 50일 후 단일처리보다 높게 나타났다. 절화의 길이, 엽수, 무게 등의 절화 생육은 영양생장기간이 길었던 정식 70일 후 단일처리에서 가장 양호하였고, 정식 40일 후 단일처리에서 가장 불량하였다. 그러나 화폭, 설상화수, 꽃의 무게 등의 꽃의 생육은 정식 50일 후 단일처리에서 가장 우수하였다. 정식 60일과 70일 단일처리에서 꽃목에 유엽이 발생함에 따라 꽃목길이가 길어져 품질이 하락하였고, 개화소 요일수는 단일처리 시기가 늦을수록 지연되었다. 따라서 스탠다드 국화 ‘백마’의 버들눈은 삽목기간이 길어져 15일 이상된 노화된 삽목묘를 정식하거나 정식 후 단일처리 시기가 50일 이상으로 늦어질 경우에 많이 발생하며, 버들눈 발생으로 화폭, 설상화수, 꽃 무게, 꽃목길이 등 절화의 품질이 크게 하락하는 것으로 나타났다.

절화 국화 ‘백마’를 재배하고 있는 관행농가와 스마트팜의 시설현황, 재배환경, 절화생육 및 경영성과를 비교 분석하였 다. 관행농가는 비닐하우스에서 토경으로, 스마트팜은 유리온 실에서 양액재배하고 있었다. 스마트팜은 광량, 온도, 습도, CO2, 풍속, 강우, 양액 pH와 EC 측정을 위한 센서들을 갖추어 자동제어하고 있었으며, 실시간으로 컴퓨터와 휴대전화 어플 리케이션을 이용하여 온실을 관리하고 있었다. 반면에 관행농 가는 환경 측정용 센서와 관비재배용 pH와 EC 센서들이 전혀 없었고, 모든 시스템들을 수동으로 작동하고 있었다. 시설 내의 주간과 야간온도는 관행농가에서 생육 적온보다 낮게 관리되고 있었다. 관행농가의 토양 EC는 3.2dS･m-1로 높게 나타나 절화 생육에 적합하지 않은 것으로 나타났고, 스마트팜은 1.1dS･m-1 로 적절하게 관리하고 있었다. 재배방법에 있어서 토양소독은 관행농가에서는 실시하지 않았으며, 스마트팜에서는 과산화수 소를 이용하여 토양소독을 실시하고 있었다. 그 외에 재배방 법은 큰 차이가 없었으나, 관행농가에서 응애가 많이 발생하 여 피해증상이 나타났다. 절화장, 화폭, 생체중, 엽록소 함량 등과 같은 절화 생육은 관행농가보다 스마트팜에서 더 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 경영성과 측면에서 1,000m2 기준으로 순이 익은 관행농가에서 -419천원이었고, 스마트팜은 4,484천원이 었으며, 생산량과 수취가격이 관행농가보다 스마트팜에서 각 각 22%와 52% 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 절화의 생육과 경영성과의 차이는 스마트팜의 자동화 설비에 의해 정 밀 생육관리가 가능했기 때문이라고 판단되었다.

본 연구는 국내에서 절화국화를 재배하고 있는 27개 농가를 선정하여 시설과 재배현황, 수확 후 관리 및 유통 실태를 조사하였다. 재배농가들의 60%는 PE필름 비닐하우스에서 토양 관비재배 방법으로 절화국화를 재배하고 있었으며, 전남과 부산은 스탠다드 국화를 주로 재배하고 있었다. 자가채취 또는 업체에서 구매한 삽수를 플러그 육묘하여 발근묘를 생산하고 있었으며, 전남지역에서는 주로 재배상에 직접 삽목하고 있었다. 절화국화를 수확한 후 전처리로 열탕처리 또는 수돗물로 물올림을 실시하는 농가가 66.6%로 나타났다. 예냉은 70.4% 농가에서 실시하지 않았으며, 예냉하는 농가들은 주로 2~4℃에서 실시하고 있었다. 절화국화를 수확한 후 유통 물량을 조절하기 위해 70.4%의 농가에서 저장을 하고 있었으며, 2~4℃에서 48시간 이상 저장하고 있었다. 절화국화를 출하 전에 주로 개인별로 선별하고 있었으며, 일부 수출 농가에서만 공동선별을 하고 있었다. 유통에 있어서 모든 농가들은 국내로 출하하고 있었으며, 이들 농가 중 44.4%는 수출을 겸하고 있었다. 국내 시장으로 출하하는 경우, 63.0%의 농가에서 화훼경매장을 이용하고 있었다.

This study was carried out to examine the effective wet harvesting solution for development of wet distribution system in standard chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum) ‘Baekma’. The cut flowers were treated immediately in floral preservative solutions or dry condition after harvesting, and then the effects on quality of cut flower were compared. Also, we investigated the effects of NaOCl and sucrose on vase life and quality of cut flower. When the cut flowers were treated immediately in tap water, Chrysal OVB, Floralife, Hiflora solutions after harvesting, flower diameter and fresh weight of cut flower increased compared to dry condition treatment. In single treatment of 100 mg･L-1 NaOCl as wet harvesting solution, flower diameter and fresh weight of cut flower increased more than other treatments, and vase life was prolonged to 1.5 days than control. But, flower diameter and fresh weight of cut flower decreased in 0 or 200 mg･L-1 NaOCl. When the cut flowers were treated in combination solution of 100 mg･L-1 NaOCl and 0.1% sucrose, the flower diameter was the largest by 9.8 cm, and fresh weight of cut flower was maintained the highest in holding solution. On the other hand, flower diameter and fresh weight of cut flower were lowest in combination solution of 100 mg･L-1 NaOCl and 2.5% sucrose. There was no difference in vase life between treatments mixed with NaOCl and sucrose. Therefore, it was suggested that treatment mixed with 100 mg･L-1 NaOCl and 0.1% sucrose as wet harvesting solution was the most effective for vase life and quality of cut flower in standard chrysanthemum ‘Baekma’.

This study was conducted to analyze the correlation between cultivation environment, cropping system, and the quality of cut flower in autumn-winter season chrysanthemum‘Jinba’, and to suggest the cultivation factors that can improve the quality of cut flower. It was examined for cultivation environment such as average day and night temperature, average day and night relative humidity, average day and night vapor pressure deficit (VPD), and integrated solar radiation of 4 farms planted in mid-October. Also, it was surveyed for cropping system such as cutting condition, growth period, irrigation method, soil chemical properties. Chrysanthemum ‘Jinba’ was harvested in order to investigate the quality of cutting of four farms, and then growth, chlorophyll content, and vase life of cut flowers were investigated. Based on these data, it was analyzed for the correlation between cultivation environment, cropping system, and quality of cut flower elements. In correlation between cultivation environment and quality of cut flower, the average night temperature showed a negative correlation with the growth of cut flower, and it was no correlation with other environmental factors. The vase life showed a negative correlation with the average day and night temperature and VPD, and a most positive correlation with the average day and night humidity. In correlation between cropping system and quality of cut flower, the cutting length, period of vegetative growth, daily irrigation amount, and total irrigation amount showed a less positive correlation, and leaf number of cutting and soil pH showed a most positive correlation with growth of cut flower. On the other hand, soil EC showed a less negative correlation, and days to flowering after light out showed a most negative correlation with growth of cut flower. The vase life of cut flower was not correlated with the cropping system factors.

This study was carried out to examine the effects of NaOCl, sucrose, and BA concentration as pretreatment solution on quality and vase life of cut flowers in Dendranthema grandiflorum ‘Jinba’. Flower diameter, fresh weight, and vase life in control and 0 mg･L -1 NaOCl treatments decreased, and the treatment with 100~200 mg･L -1 NaOCl was more effective in the quality and vase life. In pretreatment with 2.5% sucrose solution, flower diameter and fresh weight decreased and vase life was shortest due to the rapid leaf wilting. However, pretreatment with 0.1% sucrose solution increased the flower diameter and fresh weight, and showed the longest vase life. When more than 80 mg･L -1 BA was treated with pretreatment solution, flower diameter and fresh weight decreased, and vase life was shortened. With pretreatment of 20 mg･L -1 BA, the flower diameter was bigger than in the other treatments, but it was no effect on fresh weight and vase life. Therefore, it was suggested that pretreatment solution mixed with 200 mg･L -1 NaOCl, 0.1% sucrose, and 20 mg･L -1 BA was the most effective for the quality and vase life of cut flowers in standard chrysanthemum ‘Jinba’.

Slaughter of cattle, pigs, and chickens has increased continuously. In particular, slaughter of chickens has been grown up about 150% in 2010 than that in 2003, that is approximately 120,000 tons. All of them are underwent consigned treatment even though those can be used as a resource and an energy source. With this regards, THR (Thermal Hydrolysis Reaction) leads to reduce water content drastically (<30% in sludge cakes). In addition, Dehydrated solid would be re-used as solid fuels (SRF) as well. In this study, We have applied THR to a plant (10 ton/day) on the basis of our lab and pilot results. Water content of sludge cakes showed with a ranges of 30 to 40% after solid-liquid separation. Dairy SRF produced 1.5 ton/day and its heat capacity for SRF has 6,500 kcal/kg. This gave the steam produced about 12 ton/day throughout the plant operation, suggesting that THR system would expect energy savings.

Slaughter of cattle, pigs, and chickens is continuously increasing. Slaughter of chickens has especially increased by approximately 50% from 2003. The quantity of poultry slaughter waste is currently approximately 120,000 tons/year, and undergoes consigned treatment. Via this process, the waste must be used as a resource and an energy source. For this purpose, the waste volume can be reduced and solid fuel can be obtained from the THR (Thermal Hydrolysis Reaction) that consumes a small amount of energy. In this study, The test was conducted at a reaction temperature of 170-220oC and for 1h at the final temperature. According to the CST (Capillary Suction Time) and TTF (Time to Filter) evaluation, the dehydrating efficiency was good after the temperature reached 190oC, and did not significantly differ at the 190oC and higher reaction temperatures. The heating value of the dehydrated solid product was 7,000-7,700 kcal/kg, and its yield rate decreased from approximately 80% to 60% with the increase in the reaction temperature. The results of the BMP test also showed that the anaerobic digestion efficiency decreased at the reaction temperatures of 200oC and higher. From the overall evaluation of the dehydrating efficiency, solid fuel quality, and anaerobic digestion efficiency during the thermal hydrolysis of poultry slaughter waste, it is concluded that the optimal operating temperature is 190oC.
