본 연구는 중국 운남성 라평현 명가촌(中國雲南羅平縣明格村）대상지로 명가촌의 생태보전 및 지역발전 중심으로 연구를 진행하고 있다. 운남성 라평현의 독특한 계단식 밭 경관(梯田景觀)은 중국의 중요한 농업문화유산이고 매우 높은 보존 가치를 가지고 있다. 운남성 라평현 면가촌에서 살고 있는 포의족(布依族)은 중국의 소수 민족에 속하며, 그 민족의 전통문화와 풍습은 중국의 중요한 무형문화유산으로 보전가치 크다. 중국은 고대부터 다민족 국가였다. 수천 년 간 다른 민족문화와 지역문화가 서로 융합되어 상호 영향력이 중국의 전통문화를 형성했다. 소수 민족의 전통문화는 중국 민족의 전통 문화에서 중요한 부분이다. 운남성 포의족(布依族）은 독특한 의상, 음식, 건축, 무용, 공예 문화를 가지고 있지만 현대문명의 통일화에 따라서 운남 포의족 전통문화가 점차 사라지고 있다. 중국 독특한 소수 민족 문화가 시간에 흐르면서 잊혀지고 없어지는 것은 세계 문화사에 커다란 동정이다. 그래서 포의족 문화의 전승과 보전에 대한 내용도 핵심 내용이다. 현재 명가촌의 농촌마을계획은 장기간 단일화 발전 모델로 이 지역의 보전가치가 큰 계단식 밭경관과 포의족(布依族)의 문화에 대한 고려가 미비하여 점차 사라지고 있다. 본 연구는 명가촌의 경관보전 및 지역발전을 목적으로 연구를 진행하고 있다. 연구내용은 명가촌의 생태마을설계와 무형문화유산의 보전을 기반으로 지역 발전의 활성화 계획을 다루고자 한다. 첫째, 명가촌 생태마을설계에 대한 내용이다. 우선 기존의 농촌마을계획을 진단하였다. 생태마을설계 방향은 자연생태환경과 포의족 전통건축 복원 및 계단식 밭의 보전이다. 둘째, 마을의 무형문화유산 보전방안이다. 농업문화유산은 현대 농업 발전에 중요한 영향을 미치는 매우 중요한 가치를 지니고 있다. 그러나 과학 기술이 꾸준히 발전함에 따라 수천 년 동안 지속되어 온 전통적인 농업은 사라질 위기에 있다. 명가촌 계단식 경작지의 경제적 가치, 생태적 가치, 미학적 가치, 문화적 가치, 과학적 연구 가치 및 사회적 가치와 같은 여러 가치를 가지고 있다. 반면, 면가촌 전통적인 농법은 단지 1차 산업에 국한되어 있고, 계단식 경작지는 경사가 급하고 협소한 폭으로 기계경작이 어려워 농민의 소득과 생활수준을 제한하고 있다. 그런데 이러한 제한요소는 오히려 녹색농업, 유기농업 및 생태농업을 활성화 시킬 수 있는 기회요소가 되고 있다. 계단식 경작지와 연계한 생태관광의 개발을 장려하고, 다자간 경제 보상을 통한 유기농업과 특색 있는 농업을 촉진한다면 지속가능한 발전이 가능하다고 판단된다. 셋째, 명가촌 Permaculture 및 생태관광 모행 도입이다. 1). 전통적 단일농업 → 다양한 산업구조 퍼머컬쳐로 전환(유채 재배업, 유채씨 기름 가공업, 양봉업, 유기농산물 판매 산업) 2). 생태관광 개발 (포의족 전통문화 홍보, 지역수익증가, 생태경관보전)

Agricultural and rural extension has played diverse roles for rural development according to different ages and situations. In Africa, the roles of extension are strongly requires to eradicate poverty. In this regard, the study aims at proposing some measures to strengthen the roles of extension for the Africa’s rural development. It seems that there need such policies as successful implementation of agricultural and rural development projects, formation of community’s change adoption environments, community empowerment and capacity building, in order to facilitate agricultural and rural development. For strengthening the linkage of extension to agricultural and rural development policies, the following measures will have to be adopted: i) strengthening of the linkage of extension services to agricultural and rural development projects; ii) formation of community’s change adoption climates by integrating consciousness transformation and infrastructure improvement; iii) recovery and expansion of public-side rural extension’s roles for facilitating community change by empowering the extension workers; iv) acceleration of innovation expansion through facilitation method or technique.

이 연구에서는 농촌지역에 대한 발전수준을 종합적으로 판단할 수 있는 지표체계를 설정하였으며, 실제 데 이터를 이용해 세 가지 유형의 시ㆍ군 지역 (일반시, 도농통합시, 군)별로 설정된 지표의 수준을 비교, 분석하 였다. 또한 각 지표의 분포가 어떤 통계분포에 적합한지를 시ㆍ군 유형별로 추정하였다. 지표의 체계는, 지역 주민들이 쾌적한 일상생활을 살아가는데 필요한 각종 생활환경시설을 나타내는 생활환경지표와, 지역이 경제 적으로 얼마나 활성화되어 있는가와 지역의 성장에 가장 중요한 인적 자원의 규모와 구조가 어떠한가를 보여 주는 지역활력지표의 2가지로 분류한다. 생활환경지표는 주택, 도로, 상ㆍ하수도 등 생활환경을 대표하는 4개 의 지표로 구성되며, 지역활력지표는 경제, 재정, 인구 등의 부문을 대표하는 5개의 지표로 구성된다. 주택부문 의 수준은 군 지역이 다른 지역보다 더 떨어진 것을 알 수 있었으며, 도로부문의 지표는 일반시가 다른 유형 의 시ㆍ군 지역보다 월등히 높은 것으로 나타났다. 상ㆍ하수도 개발 수준은 일반시가 가장 높으며, 다음으로 도농통합시, 군 지역의 순이다. 고용수준은 군 지역이 가장 높고, 소득의 대리변수로 채택한 1인당지방세액 수 준은 도농통합시가 가장 높게 나타났다. 지방재정의 지표에 있어서는 군 지역이 월등히 높았고, 인구증가율은 일반시와 도농통합시, 군 지역이 정체 상태로 모두 비슷한 수준을 나타내고 있어 유형별로도 별 차이가 없다 는 것을 알 수 있다. 총인구수에 대한 노동가능인구수의 비율에 있어서는 일반시가 가장 높게 나타났다.

농촌진흥 전략, 농촌발전 전략, 농민의 자체적 발전, 풍부한 농촌의 음식자원과 방대한 관광객 시장, 다양한 농촌관광 수요 등의 요인의 작용 하에 중국 농촌 음식관광은 점차 발전하면서 관광촌, 특색마을, 음식축제 등 세 가지 발전의 모델을 갖게 되었다. 그러나 중국 농촌 음식관광의 발전은 정책 및 관리, 관광객 시장, 문화적 함의의 결여, 부족한 브랜드 의식 등의 문제에 의한 제약을 받고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 중국 농촌 음식관광의 발전은 시장의 수요 및 농촌관광 발전 추세에 부응한다는 전제 하에 계획적 지도와 부처 간 협력，정책적 지원과 제도 개선，건전한 농촌 음식관광 관련 법체계 구축，음식관광 관련 인재 육성 강화，지역 간 연동과 차별화된 발전，관광객 시장 개척과 브랜드 구축，문화와의 융합을 통한 내부 소양의 발전，요리 교육 등의 조치를 취하여야 한다.

The paper is to compare two villages in Songak-myeon, Asan, Cnungnam Province in Korea. It tries to show how the joint village project, which began with the support of the same external organization, produces different results depending on the internal conditions and circumstances of the village. From the end of the 1990s, Pyeongchon-ri and Sugok-ri started developing villages under the influence of the environmentally friendly farming movement. And subsequent supports were provided by local organizations for the development of the village. However, the village project in Sugok-ri, which focused on economic performance, later turned out to be a failure, and the residents changed to pursue activities for their own economic interests individually. On the other hand, In Pyeongchon-ri, the cooperation among villagers was strengthened in implementing support projects by similar external agencies. In addition, community ties and identity have been strengthened as problems have been solved through cooperation among residents in the process of promoting the village project. Nevertheless, projects undertaken in Pyeongchon-ri for the purpose of increasing economic performance was all failed. Through these findings, the paper asserts that the neo-endogenous development approach utilizing external support on the basis of internal cooperative network among villagers must be a very useful method for rural development in contemporary societies.

This study aims to identify more reasonable and efficient development plans to engage local university students in landscape improvement projects in rural areas. To survey university students, residents, administrators and experts involved in such projects on important considerations in this regard, SWOT analysis was employed to identify important factors, followed by analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to evaluate their relative importance, identify problems and suggest implications for improvement. The results are summarized as follows: the relative importance of the SWOT group was in the order of opportunity, strength, threat, and weakness. For each SWOT factor, the relative importance of strengths was in the order of students’ aspiration and passion, availability of creative ideas and designs, and improved attachment to their community. The relative importance of weaknesses was in the order of the lack of spontaneous participation of residents, short preparation periods and insufficient budgets, and the lack of experience in similar projects. The relative importance of opportunities was in the order of young students’ activity itself being a boost factor to the community, students’ endeavors arising a consensus among residents, and students feeling a sense of duty as representatives of their school. The relative importance of threats was in the order of projects being one-shot, temporary events, immaturity, and differences in preferences between older and younger generations. To draw an overall ranking of the sub-factors evaluated, the overall relative importance of the decision-making factors was evaluated. Among the sub-factors for each SWOT group, young students’ activity itself being a boost factor to the community as an opportunity factor was shown to be the most important, while the lack of experience in similar projects was shown to be the least important as administrators and experts made appropriate interventions in each stage.

In recent years, the population structure has been changed by the progresses of 6th-industrialization and transportation in farming areas. This study aims to suggest a regional development plan of farming areas in accordance with the demographic changes. Population structure indicators were derived from previous studies and literature review in order to identify the types of farming areas. Demographic indicators separated to depopulation and population growth in farming areas through a standardized scoring method. This research found that the division of economy is not only the most important division in any other regional development divisions but also necessary to develop new sources of non-farm income through traditional culture, natural environment. In the social division, it is necessary to secure the facilities for the formation of a sense of community to multicultural families and existing residents in farming areas. In the environmental division, it is desirable to improve the quality and satisfaction of life for residents such as the sidewalk and park that utilize ecological environment, culture, history for both depopulation and population region. In the physical division, there is a need for improvement of the facilities of basic living infrastructure service such as roads, water supply and sewerage systems. In the institution division, sustainable financial support of the central government policy for farming areas is crucial for the improvement of residential environment in the farming areas of depopulation and population region.

This study was conducted to effectively develop rural tourism in Korea. For the purpose, tourism that can develop with local industries and cultures together was designated as life-type tourism and development models of such tourism were reviewed based on an understanding that province-oriented tourism is necessary. An analysis of three actual cases of Japan led to following results. First, life-type tourist destinations can be developed in connection with making local areas based on their special themes, can be developed in relation to their life cultures based on their peculiar life cultures and can be developed in creative forms using characteristic environment and organizational culture of those areas. In pursuing life-type tourist attractions, it will be possible to make practical development using it with those three basic models. Second, it is important to form a flow covering the entire regions based on their own special themes, to build cyclical structure of regions and tourism and tourism and industries and to create overall conditions that can help local residents get benefits and join together, in order to develop such life-type tourist destinations. Development of life-type resort tourist destinations needs roles of practical organizations that can effectively manage them, but such organizations should be dynamic and should be distant from management of money as much as possible.

This study aims to assess Green-Tourism accessibility of Rural Experience Village and then prepare improvement methods. To do this study, we surveyed 25 operators of Rural Experience Village in Chungbuk. We used 21 issues in all for analysis and the following shows a summary of major results. Rural Experience Village has a generally hard time conducting facility maintenance. Countermeasures for maintenance are required to run smoothly. Since Rural Experience Village has difficulty attracting visitors to the village, countermeasures are needed to attract visitors through business promotion. The results of assessing Green- Tourism accessibility showed us that some villages are a lot more accessible than others. Therefore, it is necessary that there should be improvements of Green -Tourism accessibility by attracting visitors and increasing operating days so that Green-tourism accessibility can be enhanced. In spite of its high level of accessibility since Rural Experience Village belonging to Goesan has low profitability, it is especially imperative that we establish more positive project promotion to cover it.

This study investigated the problem of the existing rural development plan where the opinions of local residents are excluded due to the lack of expert knowledge and limited participation and sought the village development plan driven by the voluntary participation of local residents by applying a rural forum targeting rural villages to solve the problem. As a result of the study, (1) the problem of the current village development plan should be made based on the participation of local residents, and (2) this problem has remained as an important challenge. Therefore, the village improvement activities that have reflected the opinions of local residents can be said to be (3) the process that seeks the change into the rural planning process led by local residents, and this study derived the ways to ensure the voluntary behavior of local residents, strengthen local residents' capacity to create on-going villages, and expand local residents' participation opportunities in the entire process of rural planning through the application of the rural forum. (4) Although it is generally difficult for local residents to propose opinions directly and exert influence in the rural planning and design process and it is not easy to reduce the difference in the perspective between the professionals and local residents, significance lies in the fact that local residents voluntarily determine the future of their region and derive the plan. Therefore, the experience of decision-making and consensus process through the rural forum can promote the sustainability of the village creation participated by local residents and the increase of local residents' role. This study took one village as an example to reflect the results applied to the rural forum, and it is difficult to determine that it has been fully verified with the method of residents' participation. Therefore, future studies to verify the effectiveness of village creation and seek the empirical utilization measures are needed more, and the operation of education programs and various support plans suitable to the capacity and level of local residents should be promoted rather than the traditional lecture-style stereotyped education in the future for sustainable rural development.

This study aimed at setting up the grading indicator standards on development stages for phasing the continuous development process. To achieve the objective of this study, after referring to the proposed cases derived from the reference analysis, the development stages were classified. Also grading criteria of indicators according to development stages were established through the statistical analysis and expert group checking. Development stages of rural village were stepped into 4-stages through the reviews and analysis of reference literature ; preparation-entry-development-advanced stage. Reasonable achievement level of each development stage was established by considering the necessary development period and benchmarking reference target together. On the basis of these clear stepwise development phases, the grading criteria were proposed for determination of the incumbent development stages.

In this study, the objectives are to provide rural experience tourism village business courses and development direction in between individual farmers and the village in base on rural development business of Hapjeon-village. The developmental process of a farm-stay village can be categorized into the period of six stages: 1) a conception stage 2) an adoption stage 3) a growth stage 4) an expansion stage 5) a stagnation stage 6) a recovery stage. Farm Stay Villages, Individual Farmhouses or Producer Groups can be placed in four different quadrant areas of a graph, depending on the pursuing direction and results of core values by having the X-axis for economic factors (public profits, individual profits) and by having the Y-axis for emotional factors (self-actualization, conflicts). The first quadrant area is designated for ideal individual farmhouses and producer groups for having achieved the status of economic self-reliant and high emotional satisfaction. The second quadrant is for ideal self-actualized communal villages having achieved the independent public interest and public profitable status. The third quadrant is reserved for villages experiencing communal conflicts and no economic self-reliant stagnant status. The fourth guardant area is allocated for individual farmhouses and producer groups having achieved self-reliant economic status, yet having communal conflicts. Using the aforementioned concept, the government shall design village development projects and prepare realistic and achievable goals and place them in as a systematic device in future projects.

The composition of rural Green Village requires higher utilization of renewable energy in those selected rural villages. The purpose of this study is to select the best results of rural green villages when using photovoltaic power system(PV system). 10 different rural villages in Chubumyeon, Keumsan, Chungnam province, were selected as study villages. This study shows measured solar radiation data, a 20-year time series data, and GIS spatial analysis; and whose were used to predict the photovoltaic power generation. PV system is used as a form with capacity of 3kWp to use for personal and public houses. Generation data was calculated by the town, where the economics of the Green Village location analysis was performed; and the solar radiation's correction factor was calculated by the 20-year time series data and measured data by study villages. By applying to the data of DEM, slope and aspect of the study villages were found, therefore performed. Spatial analysis tools were performed by using solar radiation map's tools. Those data found were used to calculate the average needed energy every months. When used the properly calculated data, towns performed economical energy consumption in rural Green Village. Every study villages have showed very high potential for PV system. Sungdangri ranked at the first (7,401kWp/year), Jangdaeri follows behind to the second (7,203kWp/year) and Yogwangri at third (7,89kWp/year) which shows higher developed energy than other study villages. The areas covered of these three towns are as follows: Sungdangri at 33,300㎡, Jangdaeri covers 18,000㎡ and Yogwangri shows 46,800㎡. With these results, analyzing the potentials using GIS spatial analysis before installation of PV system was possible. Also different villages and topography in study villages have showed various results by the area. For convenience and to shorten research time, it is possible and enough to use solar radiation tools when studying spatial analysis of solar radiation.

This study intended to suggest Voluntourism as a solution for alternative rural tourism for regional activation. Voluntourism is a form of alternative tourism on values of variety of tourism demand from pleasure to virtue. This study analyzed actual state of WWOOF(World-Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms) activities being operated in Korean rural village, one of representative of Voluntourism. Study aimed to explore the possibility of WWOOF activity as one of model of alternative rural tourism. We apply grounded theory method one of qualitative study methods for analysis of WWOOF Activities because WWOOF is still small activity in Korea. In result, we figure out the actual condition of WWOOF Korea activities as a vouluntourism through paradigm model of host and guest who had experience in WWOOF Korea. WWOOF activity is in its early stage so there many tasks. We suggested ideas for improving WWOOF activities to be one of new rural tourism business.

This study promotes the improvement of local incomes and rural activation by establishing rural experience theme park plans using local resources of Samzi district, Yeongyang-gun.

Themes are selected systematically and variety of the programs and spatial planning will be analyzed to promote more efficient business.

The main contents of revision of the rural landscape planning according to Landscape Law discussed in this study show that the urban landscape and rural landscape have a propulsion system which integrate them into the national landscape and manages through the landscape planning. However, management and conservation reflecting the fundamental difference between urban and rural areas are needed. Planning the landscape by generalizing the size of the population, administrative district, the surface area does not meet the ultimate purpose of the Landscape Law that tries to establish differentiated local landscapes. Therefore, the association of professionals who can support and establish a propulsion system for landscape planning with the consideration of regional characteristics. For the urban landscape, the landscape committee is fulfilling the role, but none is available for the rural areas. This study is mostly based on previous literatures, however, in the future, it is desirable to have selected pilot areas for different landscape types and review problems that may occur during the application and process, in order to establish the landscape guidelines for the rural landscape plan.

We need fundamental plan to develop Environment-friendly agriculture which has essential effect to agriculture and rural community. It should be avoided the structural problem that the farming corporations has gone through in present. Firstly, it needs to be systematized and constructed farming complex for the priority. The government initiated Environment-friendly agriculture business and expanded agriculture business as the part of the policy. There are some researches which have been studied the systematization and the construction of farming complex. It is suggested and mentioned various kinds of policies and directions so far. But, it is not mentioned any practical models. That means it seems to be various differences between each farming corporations in the structural cases. This research suggests the most optimized model of Environment-friendly agriculture by analyzing structural differences between ‘Natur’ farming Corp and ‘Sancheong-gun’ expanded Environment-friendly farming complex.
