This study was aimed to determine effects of soil organic amendment as plant growing media component on restoration of planting ground. The changes of soil physical and chemical properties and germination and growth of kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) were investigated. For treatments, soil was excavated at depth of 0-50 cm (referred as S1) and at depth of 50-100 cm (referred as S2). Then the half amount of S1 soil was mixed with the soil organic amendment (coir dust 40% (v/v), bottom ash 25%, leaf mold 25%, vermiculite 5%, carbonized rice hull 5%) at a rate of 6% (v/v) (referred as S1CC) and also the half amount of S2 soil was mixed with the soil organic amendment at a rate of 6% (v/v) (referred as S2CC) on pot in a 16 cm diameter and 14 cm height. The experiment was replicated 3 times with 3 pots per replication in randomized block design, and 100 seeds were planted per pot. In results, there was no significant difference in soil pH among the treatments with a slight decrease in soil hydraulic conductivity. However, in the S1CC treatment, positive increases in soil chemical properties, including electrical conductivity, organic matter, phosphoric acid, total nitrogen, exchangeable cation, and cation exchange capacity. Also, the germination rate, plant height, and number of leaves were higher in the S1CC treatment than those in other treatments. These results suggest that the addition of organic amendment to the soil at depth of 0-50 cm might be proper for restoring planting ground.

본 시험은 유기재배에 적합한 양파 품종 선발을 통해 유기재배 시 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 보완하기 위해 수행되었다. 농가 선호도, 육성계통, 육종회사, 고정종, 교배종, 국내종, 외국종 등을 고려하여 15개 품종을 선발하여 시험을 수행하였다. 각 품종들은 저온생장성, 동해 저항성, 추대, 분구 등 생리장해에 대한 저항성, 수확기 도복률 및 상품 수량 등 5개 영역에서 평가되었다. 교배종에서는 e-조은, 카타마루, 팝, 아트, 신기한 등이, 교배종에서는 창녕대고, 서울대고, 천주중고 등이 유기재배에 적합한 품종으로 선발되었다. 비록 적합한 품종으로 선발되지는 못했지만, 선파워는 구 특성에서 좋은 결과를 보였다. 고정종, 교배종 간에는 저온생장성(엽초경), 수확기 도복률(5월 24일)을 제외한 전 영역에서, 국내종, 외국종 간에는 월동 후 결주율을 제외한 전 영역에서 유의한 차이가 발견되지 않았다.

본 연구는 옥상녹화에서 무기질계 인공토와 유기질계 인공토가 초본인 돌나물과 목본인 순비기나무의 생육에 미치는 영향을 살펴 봄으로써 유기질계 인공토의 효용성을 제시하고자 한다. 연구기간 은 2013년 5월에서 10월로 약 5개월이며, 식물종은 초본류에 돌나 물을, 목본류에 순비기나무를 대상으로 무기질계 인공토(Inorganic substrate=perlite, IOS), 자연토(natural soil, NS), 유기질계 인공 토Ⅰ(organic substrate=artificial compost Ⅰ, OS1), 유기질계 인공토 Ⅱ(organic substrate=artificial compost Ⅱ, OS2)로 구 성하였다. 돌나물의 초장, 줄기수, 엽수, 상대엽록소함량비는 유기 질계 인공토 Ⅰ처리구(OS1)> 자연토 처리구(NS)> 무기질계 인 공토(IOS) 순으로 높았으며, 통계적인 차이가 뚜렷하였다. 생체중 과 건물중 또한 OS1, NS, IOS 처리구 순으로 생육결과와 비교적 유사한 경향을 보였다. 순비기나무는 수고, 경경, 엽장, 엽폭은 유기 질계 인공토 Ⅱ(OS2)> 자연토 처리구(NS)> 무기질계 인공토 (IOS) 순으로 유의적으로 높았으며, 특히 유기질계 인공토 Ⅱ 처리 구에서 단기간의 실험임에도 불구하고 그 차이가 뚜렷했다. 이에 옥상녹화의 식재지반에서 무기질계 인공토의 단용처리는 식물생 육에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있으므로 식물생육을 위한 적정비율 의 유기질계 인공토의 활용이 요구된다.

The occurrence of major pest infestation was compared between conventional tea plantation and organic tea plantation at Sulloc tea garden in Dosun-dong, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do from 2002 to 2009. Tetranychus kanzawai was observed a lot in the second year, but it waned from late June. There was not much difference between conventional farming and organic farming in terms of pest density. Empoasca onukii was infested in the second year of organic farming compared with conventional farming, which highlighted the fact that second year of organic farming requires a special care. Scirotothrips dorsalis was highly dense in the second and third year of conventional farming, but its occurrence was lowered when the farming technique was shifted to organic farming. The number of Homona magnanima peaked 4 times each year. In 2008, the first year of organic farming, saw high occurrence of 771.2 per trap per year. In 2009, the second year, the population per trap dropped to 80, showing a great variance depending on year. The occurrence of Caloptilia theivora peaked 5 times annually. In 2008, the first year of organic farming, an average of 2,779 pests per trap was found, and in the following year, 4,143 pests were observed. It showed that density rose in organic growing period.
