This study was performed to suggest a soil loss reduction skill through estimating soil erosion from a small watershed including each type of sloping agriland by using GEOWEPP model. Experimental watershed at Gangwon province was selected for very typical sloping fields of highland agriculture in Alpine area. Runoff discharge and sediment load, hourly rainfall amount occurred during storm event were gauged, and weather data were obtained from Daegwallyeong meteorological station. The results of GEOWEPP model estimation showed that relative error values for total runoff discharge and sediment load were 3 %, -14.5 % respectively. Based on the result, soil erosion and waterway path map for each hillslope were made to select target hillslope. Several hillslopes of severe soil erosion were analyezed and then the optimal vegetative filter strip construction width and waterway path to plant grass were decided by using GEOWEPP Model.

고랭지(해발고도 400m 이상)는 전국 밭 면적의 24.7%을 차지하고 있고 경사도가 15도 이상인 지역이 58.7%인 41,812ha에 달한다. 고랭지 농업은 주로 해발고도가 높은 산지의 경사지에서 이루어지고 있고, 대부분 작물 재배기간이 5월부터 9월까지 약 5개월 정도로 짧아, 나머지 7개월은 토양 피복이 이루어지지 않은 상태로 있어 토양유실 가능성이 높다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 본 연구에서 경관성이 높은 구절초를 식재하여 토양유실 저감 효과를 구명하였다. 고랭지 경사도 55도 라이시미터(Lysimeter)에서 가로 1.2m에 세로 1.8m의 규격으로 시험을 수행하였다. 관행구로 나지(Control, TC) 대비 식재 당시 피복정도에 따라, 피복율 40%는 T1, 피복율 70%는 T2로 하여 총 3처리를 두었다. 구절초의 개화기(10월 1일) 피복율을 조사한 결과 대조구인 나지상태는 0%의 피복율인데 이에 반해 구절초 식재 처리구는 57~80%로 경사지 토양을 피복시키는 효과가 가장 높은 경향을 보였다. 경관작물인 구절초를 식재할 경우 나지 TC를 기준으로 유출량이 65~71%, 토양유실이 87~99% 감소되어 강우에 의한 토양유실 경감에 매우 효과적이었다. 또한, 유거수 탁도 저감 효과성이 뛰어났다. 따라서, 고랭지 경사지에 영년생 자원식물 중 경관성이 뛰어난 구절초를 식재함으로서 경사지 토양유실을 경감시킬 수 있고, 부가가치가 높은 고소득작물로 활용 가치가 높다.

본 연구에서는 2005년부터 2006년까지 충청남도 공주시 반포면에 위치한 봉곡천 유역의 경사지 밭을 포함하고 있는 산지하천에서 유출량, 총인, 총질소를 측정하였고 측정된 자료는 SWAT 모형을 통하여 장기간의 배출부하량 산정을 위해 모형의 보정 및 검정자료로 사용하였다. SWAT 모형의 보정 및 검정결과는 유출량은 일별자료를 이용하여 보정 및 검정을 실시하였다. 그 결과 결정계수 ($R^2$)가 0.80~0.83의 값을 보였으며 일별 T-N, T-P 부하량에 대한 보정 및 검정결과는 결정계수 ($R^2$)가 0.62~0.86의 값을 보였다. 모형의 보정 및 검정을 통해 결정된 최적매개변수를 적용하여 1997년부터 2006년까지 관측된 강우자료로 장기간의 유출량, T-N, T-P 배출부하량에 대한 SWAT 모형 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 또한 이를 바탕으로 하여 산지와 밭에 대한 원단위를 산정하였으며, 그 결과 산지에 대한 T-N의 원단위는 3.29 $kg/km^2/day$이었고 T-P에 대한 원단위는 0.15 $kg/km^2/day$로 나타났다. 또한 밭에서의 T-N에 대한 원단위는 11.15 $kg/km^2/day$이었고 T-P에 대한 원단위는 0.70 $kg/km^2/day$로 나타났으며 강우의 시간 및 공간적 변화에 따른 유출량을 고려한 산지와 밭에서의 영양염류 배출부하량을 산정하는데 SWAT모형을 적용하는 것이 타당성이 있는 것으로 판단되었다.

In this country, farmers lay out furrows in the direction which is considered by their own judgement to be convenient for cultivation without paying much attention for soil erosion. The direction of furrow has considerable effects on soil and water losses. In this experiment, it is intedned to observe the differences of soil and water losses in different directions of furrows of sloped fields so that the results thus obtained could be informed to farmers who should be careful in determining furrow direction for soil erosion control. Some the major experimental results are summarized as follows: The direction of furrows did not affect so much on the runoffs in a gentle slope, as the runoff is 509 ton/10a in the contouring plot, $51^{\circ}$/ton/10a in the 45-degree plot, and 560 ton/10a in the up-and-down hill plot. The contouring plot among the three plots had best effect on soil conservation, as the soil losses are 5.8 ton/10a in the contouring plot, 9.3 ton/10a in the 45 degree plot, and 10.2 ton/10a in the up-and-down hill plot.

Use of polymeric soil amendments is an emerging way to reduce soil erosion, and improve crop productivity and soil quality. Objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) and synthetic biopolymer on soil erosion, crop growth and soil quality. The aqueous solutions of PAM and biopolymer at 40 kg/ha were applied to loamy soil plots (3 m width by 18 m long) having a 20% slope during radish (Raphanus sativus) cultivation. Results showed that PAM and biopolymer treatments increased aggregate stability up to 11% compared to the untreated control. Treatments of PAM and biopolymer also increased leaf length of radish but there was no significant difference in crop yield. Soil loss was decreased by up to 41% using the polymeric soil amendments; however, no difference in runoff was found, compared to the untreated control. Soil loss was logarithmically increased against an increase in rainfall intensity ($R^2=0.85$). Our findings suggest that proper use of polymeric soil amendments would be beneficial to maintain soil quality and reduce soil erosion in sloping uplands.

This study was conducted to nominate optimal ground cover plants eventually enhancing Aronia production in the highland rolling plains. Total number of 17 weed species were observed in Aronia field when no cover plant was applied. Meanwhile, 12, 14, 15 and 16 weed species were observed when kentucky bluegrass, white clover, rattail fescue and ground ivy were used, respectively. Untreated native weed species were 73.6 cm tall before cut, and kentucky bluegrass, white clover, Rattail fescue and ground ivy were 57.5, 36.8, 48.3 and 40.9 cm, respectively. Based on plant height before cut, two shortest plants, white clover and ground ivy, were considered effective as ground cover plants in Aronia field. Coverage at $3^{rd}$ year by cover plants ranged from 85% to 100%. Coverage of uncovered Aronia field by native weed species was 95% while coverage by 4 treatments, kentucky bluegrass, white clover, rattail fescue and ground ivy were 100, 87, 85 and 100%, respectively. Aronia yield per plant at $3^{rd}$ year was 1,916 g with white clover cover followed by 1,770 g with Rattail fescue, 1,766 g with ground ivy, 1,098 g without cover plants and 931 g with Kentucky Bluegrass. Out results indicated that ground ivy was the best among all treatments based on 3 criteria, (1) short plant architecture, (2) rapid ground covering and (3) better weed control. In addition, ground ivy cover appeared to secure better yield.
