This study aimed to compare effects of cultivation areas (upland and reclaimed land) and harvest time on contents of bioactive components and antioxidant activities of wheat sprouts. Contents of Ca and K were higher in upland, while content of Mg was higher in reclaimed land. Mineral content decreased after winter, regardless of the harvest time. Total dietary fiber increased by 24.3% in reclaimed land and improved by 45.2% after winter, with Ariginheuk showing the highest fiber content (34.41 ± 0.53 g/100 g). Total polyphenols increased by 48.6% in reclaimed, but decreased by 26.7% after winter. Similarly, flavonoids increased by 87.8% in reclaimed land but declined after winter. Content of octacosanol, a key bioactive compound, was 33.2% higher (7.75 ± 0.09 mg/g) in Ariginheuk grown in reclaimed land and decreased after winter. Antioxidant activities measured by ABTS and DPPH assays increased by 51.4% and 82.4%, respectively, in reclaimed land, with pre-winter harvests showing higher scavenging abilities. Overall, reclaimed land generally showed higher contents of bioactive components, with contents of pre-winter harvests being more beneficial. These findings highlight significant differences in wheat sprouts' physiological activities based on cultivation area and harvest time, suggesting that reclaimed land and pre-winter harvesting might offer advantages.

Oyster mushrooms were analyzed to confirm the effect of installing a convection fan on the uniformity of the environment inside the cultivation house, the quantity of fruiting bodies, and marketability for stable production. When using a convection fan, it was confirmed that the temperature, relative humidity, and CO2 concentration were maintained more uniformly than when not used.As for the characteristics of the fruiting bodies, the quantity per bottle was 177.3 g when using a convection fan, which was 17% higher than when not used, and the individual weight was 49% higher. In addition, the cap diameter, cap thickness, and stem thickness increased slightly in the convection fan treatment, and the stem length was shorter.

This study analyzed the changes in the nutritional components, properties, physicochemical properties, general bacteria, and lactic acid bacteria of pickled cabbage depending on the cultivation area. An analysis of the nutritional composition on the first day of storage showed no significant difference in the calories, carbohydrates, protein, fat, and dietary fiber contents regardless of the cultivation region, but regional differences were observed in the vitamin C content in the order of Andong > Pyeongchang > Haenam. The total free amino acid content appeared in the order Andong > Pyeongchang > Haenam, and the GABA (-amino-n-butyric acid) content appeared in the order Haenam > Andong > Pyeongchang. In addition, pickled cabbage was observed on the 1st, 5th, and 10th days of storage at 4oC. No significant change in appearance was observed on the 1st and 5th days, but changes were observed on the 10th day. Regardless of the cultivation area, the salinity (p<0.05) and pH (p<0.05) decreased significantly as the storage period increased, while the sugar content (p<0.05) and acidity (p<0.05) increased significantly. The general bacteria (p<0.05) and lactic acid bacteria (p<0.05) counts increased significantly as the storage period increased, irrespective of the cultivation region.

This experiment was carried out to study the effects of different environmental conditions and cultivation techniques on productivity of forage corn in central and southern area of Korea on 2017 and 2018. Average dry matter yield of forage corn at 34 cultivation regions was 13,510kg/ha. Forage productivity of forage corn cultivated at actual production sites have positive correlation with cultivation techniques(p<0.01) but not correlated with cultivation environments. Forage productivity of forage corn have positive correlation with seeding techniques(p<0.01) but not correlated with fertilization techniques. These results suggest that practices of cultivation techniques are more important than cultivation environments for increasing the forage productivity of forage corn. Therefore, yield prediction techniques of forage corn in Korea have to be considered the practices of cultivation techniques along with soil and climate conditions.

The objective of this study was to analyze the free sugar contents of ten kinds of fruits and fruit vegetables that were collected from many district in Korea. The analyzed results will be used as basic nutrition component reference to processing. The results were summarized as follows. The total free sugar contents among the ten kinds of fruit vegetables was highest in grape. The contents of glucose, fructose and sucrose were 6.39%, 6.27%, 0.28%, respectively. The average total sugar contents of four cultivar of apple was 11.42% and average fructose contents was 6.13%. The free sugar contents of thirteen samples of the same cultivar of apple were all differing with statistical significance. The average total free sugar contents of eight cultivar of peach was 8.66%. In case of tomato, glucose content was approximately 1.35~2.83% and fructose was 1.26~2.51%. The contents of glucose, fructose and sucrose in paprika were 2.19%, 2.06%, 0.1%, respectively.

Metcalfa pruinosa is the agricultural pest, first reported in Seoul, Gyeong-gi, Gyeongnam, Korea in 2009. This pests are difficult to control due to the wide range of hosts such as beans, apples, ginseng, pears, persimmon, and peaches. This study was carried out to investigate the ecological characteristics of M. pruinosa in pepper cultivation area. As a result of the density of M. pruinosa survey in Chungnam, Korea in 2018, the density of wintering-eggs, nymph, adult was the largest in Dang-jin area. And the results of the ecological characteristcs survey of M. pruinosa in red pepper cultivation area of Korea, M. pruinosa didn’t enter a red pepper field. In addition, the possibility of using three kinds of plants as attraction plants was examined in order to control environmentally friendly M. pruinosa. Among them, the greatest number of M. pruinosa nymph were attracted to Sunflower and Green perilla during nymph stage.

The world’s climate is changing. This can affect agricultural insects and the damage they cause by altering their ecology, behavior and habitats. Aphids are emerging as an indicator of climate change, and they are a good model for understanding these environmental changes, especially based on their migratory behavior. In this study, the occurrence of aphids in a seed potato field in Pyeongchang, Korea, was monitored daily using a yellow water pan trap from 1977 to 2017. During these 40 years, the annual migration fluctuations of the aphids were analyzed, with particular focus on four species known to vector potato viruses, Aphis gossypii, Aulacorthum solani, Macrosiphum euphorbiae, and Myzus persicae. It was found that, as time goes by, the start point of spring migration in these aphid species was getting earlier while the peak in autumn migration gradually moved to the winter season. Together with a mean annual temperature increase of 1.03 °C in Pyeongchang over the past four decades, there is a potential threat of expansion in the distribution of aphid species. that this temperature change could influence the aphid’s population changes in the Korean peninsula.

The purpose of this study is to find the traditional landscape of the Korean tea cultivation area, which has become a tourist attraction as a result of heightened interest in tea culture increased. The subjects of this study were wild tea cultivation area in the vicinity of Bulhoe temple and Unheung temple in Naju, Jeollanam-do. The research method was conducted through field survey and literature analysis. Research results are as follows. Through literature and related research, tea cultivation in the past was performed around temples in Korea, and existed in a wild form in a place where proper shade is secured. In the analysis of spatial composition and landscape characteristics, it was confirmed that the wild tea plantation is located on the north side of the temple and on the slope of the northwest side of the temple. A wild green tea was grown along the valley to a higher position than the temple. There were two types of cultivation environment and landscape. One is a place with proper shade. In other words, a wild tea grows in the lower part where some shade is provided by a tree. The other is the case where a wild tea is located in the inner space surrounded by the trees, and it has topographical characteristics such as slopes in the south and southeast directions.

본 연구의 목적은 2016년 5월에서 8월 기간 동안 단양지역의 아로니아 표본 재배 농가들을 대상으로 기상·기후학적 인자와 아로니아 과실 특성과의 관계를 조사·분석하는 것이다. 이를 위해 아로니아 표본 재배 농가들로부터 기상 요소, 과실과 토양의 물리·화학적 특성과 조건, 비가림 및 해가림 설치에 따른 과실의 특성 변화 등을 조사한다. 그 결과로서, 첫째, 단양지역의 최근 최고기온, 누적강수량, 상대습도, 일조시간 등의 기상·기후 인자가 아로니아 재배 적지뿐만 아니라 일정한 품질 유지 및 생산량에 긍정적인 영향을 준다. 하지만 4월과 5월의 강풍은 아로니아의 개화기 및 만개기의 낙화현상에 큰 영향을 준다. 둘째, 아로니아 품질과 생산량은 일최고기온, 일토양온도, 일토양 pH, 누적강수량, 일토양습도 등의 농업 기상·기후 인자와 0.9 이상의 높은 상관을 나타낸다. 그리고 이들 인자들을 이용한 회귀식을 통해 그 품질과 생산량을 예측할 수 있다. 셋째, 강수량이 많은 경우에 아로니아의 당도와 안토시아닌 성분을 감소시키기 때문에 과일 변색기 이후에는 비가림을 유지하는 것이 필요하다. 그리고 아로니아 표본 농가의 노지 및 비가림 재배 시에 당도와 안토시아닌 성분 간 회귀분석 결과는 모두 높은 상관을 나타낸다.

최근 빈번하게 발생하고 있는 이상기후에 의한 기상재해로 온실의 피해가 크게 발생하고 있다. 이에 자연재해가 발생하는 근본적인 요인인 기상과 이상기후 현상에 대한 정량적인 분석을 통해 시설재배에 취약한 지역을 검토하여 피해를 사전에 최소화할 수 있는 대책수립 및 관리가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 전라도 지역을 대상으 로 시설재배의 기상재해와 관련된 대리변수를 산정하여 기상재해에 의한 시설재배의 취약지역을 분석하였으며, GIS를 이용하여 공간적인 분포분석을 통해 기상재해에 취약한 시설재배지역을 지도로 나타내었다. 그리고 본 연구에서 작성된 시설재배의 취약지도와 대상지역에서 발생된 온실의 실제 재해기록과 비교 검토하였다. 본 연구에서 최종적으로 작성된 기상재해에 대한 시설재배 취 약지도와 실제 온실의 피해기록을 비교해보면, 광주광역시, 나주시, 영암군, 장성군, 함평군 그리고 해남군 등 대상지역의 약 50% 정도가 본 연구의 취약지도와 실제 재해기록과 일치하는 경향이 나타났다. 이에 반해 군산시, 김제시, 목포시 그리고 무안군 등은 기상조건이 취약등급에 포함이 됨에도 불구하고 재해피해가 낮게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 지역에 따라 다른 온실의 구조적인 설계 및 관리측면이 변수로 작용한 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 온실의 자연재해의 주요 원인인 기상자료를 분석하여 기상재해에 대한 시설재배의 취약지도를 작성 하였고, 과거 재해기록과 비교하여 대상지역 내에서 취약한 지점을 확인하였다. 이 연구는 온실의 설계 및 관리측면에서 기상재해에 의한 피해를 경감 및 예방하기 위한 기초자료를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 고온 등숙으로 인해 미질 저하가 큰 벼 조기재배 실시에 적합한 재배법 개선을 위하여 품 질향상을 위한 재식방법을 설정하기 위하여 수행하였다. 재식거리 30×14cm 이앙구에서는 포기당 재식 본수가 3, 5, 7로 증가할수록 초장은 감소하고, 경수는 증가하였으나, 재식거리 30×18cm 이앙구에서 는 재식본수가 증가함에 따라 초장 및 경수가 증가하였다. 재식거리 및 재식본수에 따라 간장 및 수장 의 차이는 적었으나, 재식본수가 적을수록 수수는 적었고 입수가 증가하였으며, 재식거리가 증가함에 따라 수수 및 입수는 증가하는 경향이었다. 이앙구 간 쌀 수량에 따른 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 완전미 수량에서는 재식거리 30×18cm 이앙구에서 싸라기 및 분상질립 비율이 낮아 완전미의 비율이 높은 경 향이었고, 3본 이앙시 403kg/10a로 완전미 수량이 가장 높았다. 재식거리 30×18cm 이앙구에서는 단 백질 함량이 감소하고, 취반미윤기치 값이 증가하여 식미 개선의 효과가 있었다. 이러한 연구결과를 종 합해보면, 벼 조기재배에서는 재식밀도가 낮은 넓은 재식거리(30×18cm)에 개체수가 적은 3본으로 이 앙하는 방법이 조기재배에서 발생하는 문제점들을 개선시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The world’s climate is changing. Aphids are emerging as lookouts of climate change and they are a good model to understand these environmental changes especially through migratory behavior. We monitored of the occurrence of aphid in same place (Pyeongchang) of seed potato field since 1977 in Korea. Dates of the start of spring migration of these aphids’ species were getting earlier. And, the pick of autumn migration were gradually move to winter season. Moreover, annual total numbers of collected aphids were also dramatically increased during 40 years. There is potential threats of distribution expansion of aphid species in Korea where is the hot spot of climate change with average temperature over 1.7 °C increase for 4 decades. Therefore we hypothesized that aphids’ migration pattern could be associated with temperature

본 연구는 뿌리부추를 시설하우스에서 재배할 경우 여름철 고온기 하고현상(Summer depression)을 방지하기 위하여 차광막을 하우스 내부 또는 외부에 설치하여 차광정도를 달리하면서 생육 및 수량에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 수행되었다. 2015년 하우스 내부에 무차광, 35, 55, 75, 95% 차광막을 설치하여 정식 후 20일 째 되는 날에 최종 출현 정도를 조사한 결과, 무처리, 35 및 75% 차광에서 98% 출현하였고, 55 및 95% 차광에서 100% 출현하였다. 차광 정도와는 상관없이 모든 처리에서 최종 출현은 양호하였다. 하우스 내외부에 차광막을 설치했을 경우, 2년간 평균 생중량(Fresh weight) 은 75% 차광에서 6,323kg/10a으로, 무차광, 35%, 55%, 95% 차광보다 각각 5.0배, 1.8배, 1.1배, 1.7배 높았다. 하우스 외부에 차광막을 설치할 경우 생중량은 75% 차 광에서 684g으로, 55%, 95% 차광보다 1.1배, 1.8배 높았다. 건중량(Dry weight), 건물율(Percentage of dry matter), 엽수(No. of leaves), 분얼수(No. of branches), 초장(Plant height), 근장(Root length) 등 분석결과 75% 차광이 다른 차광 보다 통계적으로 유의하게 높거나 절대적 수치가 높게 측정되어 중부지역에서 뿌리부추를 재배 할 경우에는 75% 차광이 가장 적합한 것으로 판단 되었다.
