This study was conducted to evaluate the potential of using domestic agricultural by-products—pruned branches of apple and pear trees, soybean stems, and spent cocopeat substrate—as alternative substrates for the cultivation of Flammulina velutipes. Chemical analysis showed that Substrate 1 (apple branches replacing corncob) and Substrate 2 (pear branches replacing corncob) had total carbon (42.6%) and total nitrogen (1.5%) contents most comparable to those of the Control. Mycelial growth in all mixed substrates exceeded that of the control. Fruiting body yield was higher in Substrate 2 (273.4 g/1,100mL) and Substrate 1 (238.0 g) compared with the Control (231.5 g). Fruiting body quality in Substrates 1 and 2 was equivalent to that of the control. These results indicate that woody by-products such as apple and pear pruned branches can serve as effective replacements corncob in F. velutipes cultivation.

In the event of an emergency such as facility shutdown during process operation, the by-product gas must be urgently discharged to the vent stack to prevent leakage, fire, and explosion. At this time, the explosion drop value of the released by-product gas is calculated using ISO 10156 formula, which is 27.7 vol%. Therefore, it does not correspond to flammable gas because it is less than 13% of the explosion drop value, which is the standard for flammable gas defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and since the explosion drop value is high, it can be seen that the risk of fire explosion is low even if it is discharged urgently with the vent stock. As a result of calculating the range of explosion hazard sites for hydrogen gas discharged to the Bent Stack according to KS C IEC 60079-10-1, 23 meters were calculated. Since hydrogen is lighter than air, electromechanical devices should not be installed within 23 meters of the upper portion of the Bent Stack, and if it is not possible, an explosion-proof electromechanical device suitable for type 1 of dangerous place should be installed. In addition, the height of the stack should be at least 5 meters so that the diffusion of by-product gas is facilitated in case of emergency discharge, and it should be installed so that there are no obstacles around it.

The aim of this study was to prepare rice straw silage using cabbage by-product and persimmon peel which are agricultural by-products produced during the same season in Korea. The treatments comprised a commercial corn silage as the control and four rice straw silages (P15-1, P15-2, P30-1, and P30-2) with different levels of persimmon peel supplementation (15%, 30%) and ensiled periods (1 or 2 months). The cabbage by-products were used to adjust silage moisture (approximately 65%). The quality of the experimental silages was evaluated based on organic acid content, palatability to three Holstein dairy cows, and manufacturing cost. In the corn silage, all chemical compositions, except total digestible nutrients and levels of lactic and butyric acids, were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those of the rice straw silages. However, considering the quality analysis using Flieg's score, the rice straw silage supplemented with 30% persimmon peel ensiled for 2 months (P30-2) was estimated as second grade to corn silage, and was relatively better in palatability to dairy cows than the other rice straw silages, which were considered third grade. The manufacturing cost of rice straw silages using cabbage by-product and persimmon peel compared to that of corn silage was reduced by 28%. Consequently, to prepare rice straw silage adjusted to 65% moisture using only cabbage by-products without inoculant, 30% of persimmon peel, 10% of ground corn, and 2% of molasses as a sugar source should be ensiled for at least 2 months.

최근 몇 년 전부터 우리나라의 양봉농가에는 전에 경험하지 못했던 이상기후 악재와 초비극 상황인 꿀벌 군집 붕괴현상(Colony collapse disorder, CCD)으로 인하여 최대 60% 이상의 꿀벌이 폐사하거나 사라지는 등 양봉산업 의 막대한 손실을 초래하였다. 본 연구는 복잡하고 다양한 원인으로 약해진 꿀벌의 면역력과 봉군 세력을 향상시 키기 위하여 농업부산물 홍삼박을 활용한 화분떡을 자가제조하여 꿀벌 사양 먹이를 통한 봉군 세력에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 구명하고자 수행하였다. 가공부산물 홍삼박을 건조하여 130 mesh 이상 초미립자로 분쇄하 였으며, 조사포닌 725 mg 100-1을 함유하였고 화분떡 총중량의 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0%로 첨가하여 완전하게 혼합 배합하여 화분떡을 제조하였다. 분봉벌은 4월 분봉한 봉군으로 이용하였으며, 2달 동안 1주일 간격으로 대조구 화분떡과 제조한 홍삼박 화분떡 5처리구에 급이하여 봉군의 세력을 조사하였다. 사양 먹이로 급이한 화분떡은 30일간 달관조사에서 대조구와 처리구 모두 꿀벌 먹이로 거부반응은 없었다. 봉군 세력 조사로 4월 분봉벌의 봉군은 1매 2갈로 시작하여 약 한 달 후에 6매 봉판으로 증소되었으며, 이때 조사된 봉군별 봉개율은 대조구 55%(100 기준) 대비 홍삼박 0.5~1.0% 처리구는 58~60%로 +(5~9)% 향상되었던 반면, 홍삼박 2.5% 이상 첨가한 처리구에서는 봉개율이 -(9~20)% 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 그리고 화분떡 먹이 소모량을 조사한 결과, 대조구 평균 96.9%(100) 소모율 대비 홍삼박 0.5% 처리구는 97.7%로 다소 높았으나 홍삼박 2.5% 이상 처리구에서는 점점 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

Phosphine is a common pesticide used to control grain pests in Rice Processing Complex(RPC). However, increasing use of aluminum phosphide caused the occurrence of phosphine resistance pests. In this study, phosphine resistance pests collected at RPC in 2023 was investigated with FAO No. 16 test, Dihydrolipomaide dehydrogenase(DLD) test and amino acid mutation analysis to identify the occurrence of phosphine resistance in Korea. Tested pests were collected in the 7 province 35 region. As a result of the FAO test of 21 regions, all sample were phosphine sensitives. In DLD test and amino acid analysis, 7 region samples were weak resistances. It is required to inspect the RPC and other grain storage continuously to inhibit the widespread of resistant pest.

There has been almost 26 years since science of marketing has developed in Mongolia and there has been significant progress in acquiring and using its findings. Business companies’ leadership have become aware of the importance of this science and see marketing as business philosophy and understand that analyzing the market, business environment and conditions by consumers is the key to success. Today’s society demands from marketing professionals’ delicacy and taking into account consumers’ needs and creating new needs and new means of consumption. Main purpose of business entities is to be aware of consumer needs, to establish its position on the market and to be successful. In order to provide consumers with the best products and keep them at the center of their attention it is important to establish optimal ratio of marketing factors that would most efficiently influence consumers with different behaviors.
