Abstract

This study deals with the relationship among trust, attachment and brand loyalty of agricultural products' rice co-brands, which are the staple food of the people. The research method established the hypothesis of the study under the foundation of prior research and developed the survey. The subjects of the study were distributed, retrieved, and analyzed the survey of 163 rice farmers in Buyeo-gun, Chungcheongnam-do. The empirical analysis results show that: First, hypothesis 1 of the brand awareness and image that "rice brand assets will be a positive relationship to trust" were statistically adopted. In particular, statistical t values showed a difference in consumer confidence over recognition>images. Second, hypothesis 2 of the trust of agricultural rice brands will be a positive influence on attachment and loyalty' statistically supported. In this regard, brand trust was higher in loyalty than attachment. Third, the attachment of agricultural products to rice brands will be a positive influence on loyalty,' was statistically supported. The strategic implications of this study are as follows. First, consumers should be given clues of trust(ex, GAP of Natioanl Approval Licesing, Fam Tour) as they distrust the perceived quality of the rice in the market. Second, the effect of the origin of rice is questionable, so the spread of the production power system should prevent the mixing of rice varieties, that is the spread of the production history systems.

오늘상 국민소득이 증가하고 웰빙시대를 맞아 국민 주식(主食)인 쌀 브랜드에 관한 관심이 고조되고 있는 배경하에 쌀 공동브랜드의 브랜드 자산, 신뢰, 애착이 충성도에 미치는 영향의 관계를 분석한다. 연구방법은 선행연구의 검토하에 설문을 개발하고 연구가설을 설정하였다. 연구대상은 충남 ○○의 쌀 전업농가 163명에게 설문을 배포 및 회수하여 통계·분석하였다. 실증분석 결과는 첫째, 가설 1의 '소비자의 쌀 공동브랜드의 자산은 브랜드 신뢰에 통계적으로 유의미한(+) 영향을 미칠 것이다'는 쌀 브랜드의 지각된 품질과 원산지효과를 제외하고 인지도 및 이미지는 지지하였다. 특히 통계값의 크기로 볼 때, 인지도> 이미지보다 소비자의 신뢰에 대한 영향의 차이를 보였다. 둘째, 가설 2의 '소비자의 쌀 공동브랜드의 신뢰는 애착 및 충성도에 유의미한(+) 영향을 미칠 것이다'는 통계적으로 채택되었다. 여기서 브랜드 신뢰는 애착보다 충성도의 값이 높았다. 셋째, 가설 3의 '쌀 공동브랜드의 애착은 충성도에 유의미한(+) 영향을 미칠것이다'도 통계적 값에 따라 지지되었다. 전체 변수의 값은 브랜드 애착→충성도 영향>신뢰→충성도>신뢰→애착>인지도→신뢰>이미지→신뢰의 순으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 전략적 함의는 첫째, 시중에 유통되는 쌀 공동브랜드를 바라볼 때, 소비자들은 유통 쌀의 지각된 품질에 불신을 갖고 있음에 따라 생산농가는 소비자들에게 신뢰의 단서(GAP 등 국가인증마크의 획득, 팸투어)를 제공해야 한다. 둘째, 쌀 생산 원산지효과도 의문을 제기하므로 생산이력제/쌀 DNA 검증의 도입으로 쌀 품종의 혼입(단일미 유지)을 예방하는 조치가 요구된다.
