Resistance evolution to organophosphate-based pesticides in apple and pear inhabiting arthropods of western North America extends to many classes of pest and some beneficial species. Resistance management programs to minimize resistance in pests while exploiting it in natural enemies have met with mixed success. Among beneficials, resistances have been exploited mostly among predators of pest mites. Evolution of resistant mites, leafminers, leafhopper, aphids, leafrollers and some internal fruit feeders have led to development of new monitoring methods and means to delay or avoid resistance. But it is resistance to azinphosmethyl in codling moth (Cydia pomonella) that is changing the pest control system and moving it from chemical to biologically-based means. Newly merging IPM system will depend more on use of biological, cultural, behavior and genetic controls. But more selective pesticides also will be needed to augment pheromones, resistant host plants and genetically altered organisms. These more biologically-based tactics will be prone to resistance evolution in pests as well, if used too unilaterally and/or too extensively.

In general, herbicides have been classified according to selectivity, mobility. time of application, methods of application, mode of action and chemical property and structure. However, there was no generally accepted classification system for practical use in the field. The primary processes affected by the majority of herbicides are the growth process through cell elongation and/or cell division, the photosynthetic process specifically the light reaction, the oxidative phosphorylation and the integrity of the membrane systems. The usual approach in the study of the mechanism by which herbicides kill or inhibit the growth of plants is to initially determine the morphological phototoxicity systems, The mechanism by which a herbicide kills a plant or suppresses its development is actually the resultant effect of primary and secondary(or side) effects. In most instances, the death of the plant is due to the secondary effects. To induce the desired response, a herbicide must be able to gain entry into the plants and once inside, to be transported within the plant to its site(s) of activity in concentrations great enough. Obstacles to the entry and movement of herbicides in plants are generally classified by leaf and soil obstacles, translocation obstacles and biochemical obstacles, and these obstacles are also strongly influenced by plant species and by environmental factors such as light, temperature, rainfall and relative humidity. And hence, in most instances, results obtained from laboratory or greenhous vary from those of field experiment. Author attempted to classify herbicides from the field experiment using the two-dimensional ordination analysis to obtain practical information for selecting effective herbicides or to choose effective herbicide combinations for increasing herbicidal efficacy or reducing the chemical cost. Based on this two-dimensional diagram, desired herbicides or combinations were selected and further investigated for the interaction effects whether these combinations are synergistic, additive or antagonistic. From the results, it was concluded that these new approach could possibly be give more comprehensive informations about effective use of herbicide than any other systems.

Under the limited arable land, the enhancement of agricultural productivity is indispensable to provide the food demand which is concomitant with the rapid increase in population. From this viewpoint, the upbringing and dissemination of high-yielding varieties has been promoted continuously and several modifications in cultural practices, including heavy fertilization, dense planting, and early transplanting, also have been gradually developed. However these changes in cultivation have led to the increased outbreak of insect pests and diseases. And this unexpected results have accelerated the number and complexity of pesticides employed as well as their consumption. Even though pesticides are essential materials contributing to the steady production of agricultural crops, large scale consumption of them has given rise to several adverse impacts, such as mammalian hazard and/or environmental contamination. In this respect, recent development of new pesticides has been concentrated on 'safe pesticide', as it were, that has the highly selective properties without unfavorable side influences on other ecosystem. According to literature cited up to now, feasibilities of safe pesticide development would be summarized as two categories. One of them is the development of chemical pesticides, which include the molecular structure modification of established pesticides for increased safety and synthesis of new safe chemicals which can attack the vulnerable point of physio-ecological characteristics in insect pests and diseases. The other is the biological pesticides which comprise natural enemies and microorganisms to act selectively on confined insect pests and diseases, In addition, improvement of physico-chemical properties of available pesticide formulations would be one of the desirable means for safe pesticide development in view of efficacy enhancement and minimization of hazardous properties or safe pesticide development, various approaches are feasible and needed to study, however, long period and much financial outlay are necessary to develop a new item. And under the present situation in Korea, there are many difficulties for performing research on all the possible routes. Therefore, combined pesticides by the reasonable combination of already registered resticides evaluated as the fairly safe pesticides and safe formulation based on their physico-chemical properties would be developed primarily. And many efforts would be given gradually for the development of new chemical and biological pesticides.

Korea represents high suicide rate by poisoning. Especially, since a lot of people died by high concentrated paraquat which has extremely high fatality rate, paraquat sales were prohibited in 2012. We investigated to find out how the prohibition of sales affected occurrence of pesticide poisoned patients and what kinds of influences did it have for severity and death rate. By targeting patients who visited emergency room by pesticide poisoning from 2010 to 2014, we researched insecticides poisoned patients and herbicidal poisoned patients grouped into 9 categories. Before and after 2012, We compared A term (2010, 2011) and B term (2013, 2014)’s pesticide occurrence, especially distribution of herbicide occurrence and compared hospitalization rate, hospitalization period, length of stay in ICU (Intensive Care Unit), severity, and death rate. The number of insecticide patients was 219 (37.4%) and the number of herbicide patients was 367 (62.6%) who visited emergency room in five years and the rate was similar every year. In case of paraquat, there was 70.5% decrease by 105 people for A term and 31 people for B term and increase of double for glyphosate, glufosinate, and other herbicides. The death rate was decreased but hospitalization was increased. There weren’t any difference of rate in ICU admission, intubation and ventilator therapy. By prohibition of using paraquat, the death rate by pesticide poisoning was decreased. However, patients who poisoned by other herbicides were increased, so hospitalization rate increased and there weren’t any difference at patient’s severity rates.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of pesticide-related accident on prices and sales of eggs and the perception of food safety accidents among consumers. For this, we analyzed the impact of the pesticide incident on consumers’ purchases by separating large discount stores and eco-friendly specialty stores with econometrics methods. In addition, the value changes for each egg certification were analyzed after the accident. Perception of food safety accidents was conducted through a survey to investigate the awareness of the pesticiderelated accidents, changes in purchases, and the causes of the pesticide accidents. Furthermore, the risk analysis was conducted. This results show the importance of trust and communication in food safety accidents between distributors, consumers and concerned authorities. Also, after the accident, consumers’ interest and premium exist in the breeding process such as animal welfare, not only in the final product. Therefore in order to actively respond to food safety accidents such as pesticidesrelated accident, response and improvement are necessary considering various aspects such as risk assessment, risk management, and risk communication.

Background : Medicinal crops the importance of good agricultural practice (GAP) cultivation is increasing, but the number of GAP-certified farms is decreasing because of the decrease and undeveloped application of medicinal crops. In the case of Artemisia capillaris Thunb., GAP cultivation is difficult because there is no registered application agricultural pesticides. The insect pests that occur mainly in apples are Aphis gossypii. Especially, if the high temperature is continued as in this year, the incidence rate increases rapidly, which greatly affects the growth delay. Therefore, this study was conducted to select the application agricultural pesticides of A. gossypii for the stable production of GAP in A. capillaris. Methods and Results : Three-years-old (Jangsu, Jinan) A. capillaris were used as test materials. The treated medicines (2,000-fold dilution) were acetamiprid wet table powder (WP), clothianidin suspension concentrate (SC), imidacloprid WP and thiacloprid SC. To investigate the phytotoxicity, 2 times of medicine (1,000-fold dilution) was treated. The medicinal effect was confirmed at 3 and 7 days after the treatment of the medicinal stuff, and the phytotoxicity was investigated from symptoms appearing in the stem and leaf. As a result of treatment, in Jinan area, the treatment rate was more than 80% in all treatment chemicals on the 3 day after treatment, but on the 7 day, acetamiprid WP and clothianidin SC remained more than 80%. In the jangsu area, only the imidacloprid WP was less than 80% on the 3 day of treatment, but on the 7 day, acetamiprid WP and imidacloprid WP were maintained more than 80%. In particular, thiacloprid SC had a high control rate of 93% on the 3 day, but as the fell rapidly to 32% on the 7 day, It is considered that the persistence of medicinal effect is low. Conclusion : The results of medicines treatment for A. gossypii control showed that the control efficacy was higher than 80% until the 3 day of treatment, but the efficacy decreased at 7 day. The medicines with high control rate were acetamiprid WP, and the control rate was maintained more than 80% from 3 day to 7 day. Therefore, appropriate conclusions were obtained for the applied medicine.

As a result of analyzing the contents of organic chlorine pesticide-containing wastes, HCB 421.8 ng/g, Endosolfan- 2 73.044 ng/g, PeCB 53.972 ng/g, Endosolphan-1 43.649 ng/g respectively. In the case of liquid pesticides, the HCB concentration was the highest at 167.489 ng/g, similar to that of the solid phase, followed by PeCB at 23.462 ng/g. As a result of decomposition experiments on total OCPs among the pesticide liquid and solid phase components, initial concentrations were 597.384 ng/L for liquid pesticides and 198.176 ng/L for solid pesticides. However, the final effluent gas after decomposition showed a decomposition rate of more than 99.99% at a minimum of 0.005 ng/L and a maximum of 0.055 ng/L. Degradation test results for 25 species of OCPs such as PeCB, HCB, and Endosolfan for pesticide solid phase and liquid phase at reaction temperatures of 850℃ and 1,100℃. Of the 25 OCPs in the exhaust gas, trace amounts of PeCB and HCB were detected in the range of 0.006 to 1.025 ng/L at 1,100 ℃ and 850 ℃, and 23 OCPs were not detected. In the case of pesticides, the method of high temperature incineration and high temperature melting is proposed as the designated waste, but detailed methods of treatment conditions such as incineration conditions are not presented. Organochlorine pesticides were decomposed smoothly at 850 ℃ as well as incineration temperature of 1,100 ℃. However, since the dioxin concentration in exhaust gas exceeds 850 ℃, it is safe to operate at more than 1,100 ℃ in order to prevent the possibility of dioxin in advance.

The Stockholm Convention is an agreement to reduce POPs use, production and emissions. POPs are highly toxic substances and can not be decomposed in their natural state. It has the characteristic of long distance movement. In this study, we calculated the theoretical air volume based on the result of element analysis. Considering that the inside of the reactor is small, more than 10 times of the air ratio was injected. Also, the retention time was set to 4 seconds or longer by giving a margin. The incineration temperature was 850℃ and 1,100℃ degrees. As a result of thermogravimetric method analysis, the weight of chlorine-based flame retardant-containing wastes was 300∼600℃, and that of organic chlorine-based pesticides was 200∼400℃. On the basis of this, it was experimentally investigated whether the environmentally stable incineration is achieved when the sample is thermally treated using lab-scale, 1 kg/hr. As a result of analyzing five kinds of exhaust gas, the concentration of O2 was high, but the amount of CO was decreased. It is considered that complete combustion is difficult because of the small size of the furnace due to the nature of lab-scale. The chlorinated flame retardants had a decomposition rate of 100 % and the average organochlorine pesticides were 99.9935%. Considering the decomposition rates of chlorinated flame retardants and organochlorine containing pesticide derived wastes derived from this study, incineration treatment at over 2 tons/hour, which is a conventional incinerator, is considered to be possible. Considering the occurrence of dioxins and unintentional persistent organic pollutants, it is considered possible to operate at more than 1,100℃.

The objective of this study is to propose a necessity of alternative certification for low-pesticide agricultural products (LPAP). For this, we conduct a survey consumer and distributor. Most of consumer does not aware an abolition of LPAP. After abolition, they will purchase pesticide-free, organic, conventional, GAP certificated in order. Both consumer and distributor need an alternative certification of LPAP and have willingness-to-purchase. However, it is necessary to make up for the reliability and objectivity on the alternative and to manage a poor certification. The results of this study is meaningful to distribution and consumption of environment- friendly agricultural products.

Main aims of environment-friendly agriculture (EFA) are increasing functions for environmental conservation of agriculture and building consumer confidence for agricultural products safety. The low-pesticide certification will be abolished in 2016, and this will give rise to much confusion to low-pesticide certification producers. The non-pesticide agriculture doesn’t mean organic farming, and the EFA standards of Korea don’t match up to international standards to organic agriculture. The system improvement directions for EFA are to devide into two types of organic farming and EFA, and EFA includes non-pesticide and low-pesticide farming both. These types must have legal grounds respectively.

본 연구에서는 무농약 산머루 즙의 양을 각각 50 g, 100 g, 150 g, 200 g 수준으로 다르게 첨가하여 양갱을 제조하고 색도, 당도, 기계적 조직감, 관능평가를 조사하였다. 무농약 산머루 양갱의 색도는 명도(L)값과 황색도(b)값이 무농약 산머루 즙의 첨가농도가 증가할수록 감소하였으나, 반대로 적색도(a)값은 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 당도는 대조군이 2.31 Brix로 가장 낮게 나타났으며 무농약 산머루 즙의 첨가량이 증가할수록 당도가 점차 높아져 유의적인 차이를 보였다. 기계적 조직감은 무농약 산머루 즙의 첨가량이 증가할수록 경도는 증가하는 경향을 나타냈지만, 탄력성, 응집성, 점착성, 씹힘성 등은 모두 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 관능검사 결과는 색, 향, 맛 등의 전체적 선호도에서 무농약 산머루 즙 150 g 첨가군이 가장 높은 점수를 얻었다.

본 연구에서는 농약 사용량 및 농약 잔류 현황 파악을 위해 전국 골프장 면적과 농약 사용 면적, 지역별·형태별 농약 사용량 그리고 농약 잔류에 대해 조사하였다. <br> 매년 골프장 수가 증가하여 골프장 면적이 증가함에 따라 농약 사용 면적도 증가하였으나, 총 면적에 대한 농약 사용 면적을 살펴보면 2010년 62.70%, 2011년 62.39%, 2012년 61.11%로 감소 추세를 보이고 있다. 골프장의 연평균 농약 사용량은 405,681㎏ 이었고, 단위면적당 농약 사용량은 17.27㎏/ha 였다. 지역별 단위면적당 농약 사용량은 대구, 인천, 전북, 제주, 충북 지역에서 증가하였다. 형태별 농약 사용량은 회원제, 대중제, 군부대 순으로 높게 나타났고, 단위면적당 농약 사용량은 회원제 골프장이 평균 17.70㎏/ha로 가장 많았고, 군부대 골프장이 11.45㎏/ha로 가장 적었다. 골프장의 잔류 농약 검사 결과 2010년 185곳에서 14개, 2011년 172곳에서 11개 품목, 2012년 227개 골프장에서 12개 품목의 농약 성분이 검출됐다. 농약 사용량 저감을 유도하기 위해 친환경 생물농약 사용을 홍보하고, 유출수에 대하여는 조사 횟수나 검사항목 등을 증가시켜 검사 방법을 강화하고 골프장 주변 지하수 관정에 대해서도 잔류농약 성분 검사를 실시하는 것이 바람직하다고 사료된다.

학교 급식 식재료로 사용되는 농산물 중 잔류농약의 안전성을 평가하고자 서울시내 초, 중, 고등학교 110곳에서 316건의 시료를 수거하여 잔류농약을 분석하였다. 185종의 농약에 대해 GC-ECD, GC-NPD, GC-MSD 및 HPLC-UVD를 이용한 다종농약 다성분 분석법으로 잔류농약을 분석하였고, 분석결과 26건의 시료에서 농약이 검출되었고, 취나물과 들깻잎에서 각각 57.1, 55.6%의 높은 검출율을 나타내었다. 농약 성분별 검출빈도는 프로시미돈, 엔도설판, 아족시스트로빈의 순으로 높게 나타났으며, 2종 이상의 농약이 동시에 검출된 것은 3건이었다. 그리고 검출된 시료 중 잔류 허용기준을 초과한 시료는 6건이었으며 시금치, 취나물, 양배추에서 엔도설판, 깻잎에서는 디니코나졸과 카보후란, 고추에서는 에토프로포스가 잔류허용기준치를 초과하여 검출되었다. 위해성 평가결과 들깻잎에서 검출된 카보후란의 hazard index가 3.8%로 가장 높았으며, 다른 농산물들은 모두 2% 미만을 나타내어 위해도가 매우 낮은 것으로 조사 되었다. 따라서 서울지역 학교급식 식재료로 사용되는 농산물은 비교적 안전한 수준으로 농약관리가 이루어지는 것으로 판단되며, 지속적으로 농약의 안전한 사용을 위한 홍보와 교육이 이루어져야 할 것으로 여겨진다.
