Since COVID-19, the number of people in need of physical and mental rest has increased, and activities that suit individuals' tastes are being conducted outdoors rather than indoors, and various studies on healing agricultural programs are being conducted. In this study, agricultural healing, animal-mediated healing, and horticultural healing programs were set as independent variables to find out the satisfaction and revisit intention of the healing agricultural program. 141 questionnaires were received from churches and office workers in Asan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, and used for empirical analysis. As a result of the analysis, first, touching animals was the best in animal healing, high, and crop processing experience was the best in agricultural healing, and gardening was the best in horticultural healing. According to the usage status, the cost was in the order of cost, program content, and value, and the cost was 30,000 won to 40,000 won (5 hours as of the 1st), which was the most preferred to participate in the agricultural healing program, and satisfaction and revisit intention were high. In the future, agricultural healing programs will be needed to further develop various and valuable programs and improve awareness levels.

This study was conducted to examine the impact of a healing agricultural program utilizing rural resources on the tourism intention of middle-aged people. Based on previous research, a survey was conducted as a measurement tool, and each item was empirically analyzed through multiple regression analysis through reliability and validity analysis and factor analysis. As a result of analyzing the impact of the variables of the healing agricultural program on the tourism intention of middle-aged and older people, the order of animal healing, forest healing, plant healing, and food healing was found. This means that in order to increase overall tourism intention, intensive development of animal healing, forest healing, and plant healing programs is required. Additionally, in order for the healing agriculture program to increase tourism intention, it is necessary to raise the level of awareness of the healing agriculture program and promote healing agriculture. By developing and utilizing an educational program about the program, it was concluded that there was a willingness to recommend the healing agriculture program to people around them.

This study aimed to investigate the psychological effect of a healing agricultural program using insect resources and to confirm the persistence of the healing effect. The applied insect was silkworm Bombyx mori (Linnaeus) and 28 adolescents from local children’s centers were used as the subjects. The healing agricultural program was applied at the centers for 4 weeks, and stress was measured using salivary ɑ-amylase levels and a survey on life satisfaction, happiness, and insect preference. The results indicated that stress levels decreased, and life satisfaction and insect preference increased after participating in the the healing agricultural program. Furthermore, it was confirmed that this healing effect continued until 4 weeks after the end of the program.
