'Nokkwang' green pepper plants were grown in soil system (silty loam with pH 6.5) under the greenhouse, to determine the effects of subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) and subsurface drip irrigation plus aeration (SDIA) into root zone comparing with conventional surface drip irrigation (DI) in terms of water use efficiency, soil properties, and growth and fruit yield. Two drip lines per crop row were layed on the soil surface in DI system, buried at a depth of 20cm below the soil surface in SDI system, and also buried at a depth of20cm below the soil surface and aerated for 3minutes a hour during the daytime ($08:00{\sim}19:00$) by a air compressor in SDIA system. A automatic irrigation with starting point of -20kPa and ending point of -10kPa based on soil moisture contents was applied by controllers and electronic vacum soil moisture sensors. Reduction in soil moisture contents was delayed in SDI and SDIA, compared to DI. Irrigation amount applied in pepper cultivation was around 30% less in SDI than in DI. Electric conductivity and nitrate nitrogen content in the surface soil grown green pepper were significantly lowered in SSDI and SDIA, compared to DI. Better development of root system was observed in SDIA and SDI than in DI. Results showed that pepper fruit yield increased by 30% in SDIA and 22% in SDI in comparision with DI.

The objective of this study is to investigate the growth characters of overhead flooded soybean plants at four growth stage. Overhead flooding treatments were applied at the vegetative growth stage ($V_3,\;V_6$) and the reproductive stage ($R_2,\;R_4$) for 6.12.24 hrs, respectively. Yield and yield components were more decreased as the overhead flooding duration was longer and the growth stage was later. Yield was not reduced significantly in soybean plants flooded at $V_3$ stage regardless of flooding duration, and flooded 6 or 12 hrs at $V_6$ stage. When compared to the control, 27 to 36% of yield reduction was observed in soybean plants flooded for 24 hrs at $V_6$ stage, 6 or 12 hrs at $R_2$ stage, and 6 hrs at $R_4$ stage. And 43%, 53% and 66% of yield were reduced through the flooding treatment for 24 hrs at $R_2$ stage 12 hrs and 24 hrs at $R_4$ stage, respectively. So yield reduction was higher in overhead flooded soybean plants at the reproductive stage than that at the vegetative growth stage.

야생화를 도시환경 조성에 이용하고저 대량 육묘기술 중 알맞는 관수방법과 양액을 구명하기 위하여 꽃향유를 공시하여 시험한 결과 다음과 같았다. 1 2개월 육묘시 저면 양액 담배수 관수 방법이 지상 관수에 비해 10배나 높은 생장량을 보였다(지상관수 자료는 Data에는 보이지 않음). 2. 뿌리발달로 보아 저면 양액 관수방법은 2개월 육묘로도 가능하였지만 지상 관수는 3개월 육묘해야 화단에 정식 할수 있을 것으로 보였다. 3. 2개월 육묘 저면 양액 관수시 양액농도는 1/2S의 Sonneveld 기준액이 가장 좋았고 N, K 는 약간 늘려주는 것이 좋았다. 4. 식물체내 무기물 성분은 저면 양액 관수가 높았고 생장량이 많았던 구가 비교적 높았다. 5. 화단에 정식시켜 개화기의 관상가치는 지상관수나 저면 양액 관수가 별 차이를 보이지 않아 흡비력이 높은 이 야생화는 육묘시는 다소 생장이 떨어져도 화단에서는 대체로 같아졌다. 6. 개화기의 초장도 3/2S와 Hyponex구에서 가장 컸으나 초장은 너무 커서 재배적으로 좀 줄여줘야 더 좋을 것으로 보여 S나 1/2S도 좋을 것으로 생각되었다.

Biochemical responses of rice to the flooding stress with different water turbidities and flooding time were evaluated. About 20% decrease of soluble protein was occurred with flooding stress. The decreasing rate was higher as flooding time and higher turbidity increased. Especially, dramatic decrease of soluble protein content was observed after 36 hrs of flooding. No protein subunit change was found before and after flooding. However, subunit product of 53 Kd increased from the beginning of flooding and subunit of 28 Kd was increased 48 hrs and 54 hrs after flooding. Lipid peroxidation increased about 150% by flooding. There was no significant difference in lipid peroxidation between clear and sub-muddy water, However, the lipid peroxidation was increased up to 180% at 60hrs of flooding. The malondialdehyde content (MDA) was higher in muddy water at the beginning of flooding and increased about 190-200% 36 hrs after flooding. Catalase activity increased with increasing turbidity and flooding time. Forty eight hours of flooding time provided a criteria for dramatic increase of catalase activity. In general, increase of saturated fatty acids and decrease of unsaturated fatty acids occurred with flooding treatment. Among unsaturated fatty acids, monounsaturated increased and polyunsaturated decreased. Double bond index(DBI) decreased as flooding time was extended and turbidity increased.

On this study, a multipurpose operating system was developed to adjust a configuration of a moving path which have no connection with a form of greenhouse. To being performance the multipurpose working system, we have experienced growth quality on the plants in greenhouse. Some of the results are as follows. While watering by the hand spray. the condition of plant was generally no good. It was shown that plant height and leaf area were all high without wind during watering by the automatic spray. The effect to retrain a plant growth was high as a ventilation was strong. The diameter of a plant stem was small without ventilation condition during watering 3 times by automatic spray. The number of leaf was relatively large during 3 times by automatic spray compared to 2 times by automatic spray or hand spray. Growth of plant was fast as the times of spray were large.

This study was conducted to develop a precision automatic irrigation system in a nursery by considering the problems and improvements of manual and the conventional automatic irrigation system. The amount of irrigated water between the conventional automatic irrigation system and manual irrigation was 28.7 ± 4.4 g and 14.2 ± 4.3 g, respectively, and the coefficient of variation was less than 30%. However, the coefficient of variation of the conventional automatic irrigation system of 15%, was higher than that of manual irrigation of 30%. The irrigation test using the developed uniform irrigation system attached with the nozzle of a spray angle 80° and most highest uniformity was at height 600 mm. And coefficient of variation of the irrigation uniformity at the center part was within 20%, but irrigation amount of the edge part was lower 50% and over compared to the center part. As a result of a tomato grafting seedling cultivation test using the developed uniform irrigation system, the average plant height of seedling at the edge part was 28 mm but plant height at the center part was higher as 72 mm. Therefore, it was necessary to apply additional irrigation device at the edge part. The irrigation uniformity of the edge concentrated irrigation system was investigated that the irrigation amount of the edge part was irrigated by more than 50% compared with the center part, and coefficient of variation of the irrigation amount at the center part was less than 30%. As a result of a cucumber grafting seedling cultivation test using the edge concentrated irrigation system, the plant height of seedlings in the edge and central part of cultivation bed were 24% and 26%, respectively, so irrigation uniformity was higher then the uniform irrigation system. In order to improve the uniformity of seedlings, it is necessary to adjust the height of boom according to the growth of the seedling by installing a distance sensor in the overhead watering and boom irrigation system.

Physiological responses of rice to the flooding time of different water turbidity (clear water, sub-muddy water, muddy water) were analyzed as photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence, transpiration, and physiological recovery. Photosynthetic rate was higher as turbidity increased and decreased as flooding time was extended. Floodings of 36 hrs and 42 hrs were resulted in 25% and 50% decrease of photosynthetic rate, respectively. Transpiration rate was higher in high turbidity (increased 30%, 25%, and 20% in clear, sub-muddy, and muddy water, respectively) and in increased floodings. Fv/Fm decreased as increased turbidity and flooding time. About 20% decrease of Fv/Fm was recorded in 48 hrs and 36 hrs after flooding with clear water and sub-muddy water(including muddy water), respectively. Total nitrogen was decreased with flooding treatment. Significant decrease of total nitrogen was occurred 36 hrs after flooding with muddy water, Dry weight measured 2 weeks after flooding treatment as an indication of recovery of flooding stress didn't show significant difference with turbidity, but significantly decreased as flooding time was prolonged. About 25% and 50% decreases were found in 24 hrs and 42 hrs flooding time, respectively. furthermore, 48 hrs of flooding with sub-muddy and muddy water resulted in no physiological recovery. Photosynthetic rate was decreased 15% and 10% with clear water and muddy water(including sub-muddy water), respectively. The rate was dramatically decreased 42 hrs after flooding. Transpiration rate increased about 20% regardless of turbidity and flooding time. We found transitory decrease of photosynthetic and transpiration rate at the point of 24 hrs after flooding and right after do-flooding.

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of continuous lateral shoot pinching and gradual adjustment of drip irrigation lines in improving plant health as well as fruit yield and quality in white-spined cucumber grown in the greenhouse. Grafted white-spined cucumber seedlings were established at a density of 18,000 plants per ha in a greenhouse. Main stems were pinched at 21st node. Each of the lateral shoots was pinched at the 3rd node and 2-3 fruits per lateral shoot were harvested. Drip irrigation lines were gradually adjusted to provide water to the area of maximum root concentration. Plants grown with these combined treatments produced $55\%$ more lateral shoots and 38% more marketable yield, as compared to the control.

The one of basic functional conditions of suspended overhead sprayer, which is openly made use of irrigating on bedding plants in greenhouse, is to be kept the growing uniformity of bedding plants by making uniformly the spraying irrigation depending on the distribution of sprayed water. This study was performed to find out the optimum position of sector formed injection nozzle which is placed from the top of plant 0 the tip of the nozzle to keep spraying uniformity. The test of spraying distribution using a overhead sprayer, which was installed in a row of sector formed injection nozzles, was performed The measuring factor to represent spraying distribution was the water weight filled in each cup when the overhead sprayer was moving across the upside of the cups which were placed directly under the nozzles on keeping the distance from nozzle tip. The test results were as following , The standard mr of weights of each cup filled with spraying water was lower values at Position far from more than 60cm under nozzle tip. The driving speed variation of sprayer was not effected on spraying uniformity but the spraying water weight was inversely proportioned to the speed. To make best spraying uniformity, it was represented that the tip of the nozzle is positioned to keep the distance which the top of plants is placed at the second cross point of each injection sector of nozzles.

농촌지역 관수공급의 대부분은 지하수, 하천, 저수지 등 주변의 다중수원을 활용하고 있지만, 지속적인 가뭄 발생시 농업용수의 부족현상을 일으키며, 농작물의 생산량과 품질에 많은 영향을 주는 원인이 된다. 밭작물의 경우, 재배작물별로 적절한 재배환경조성은 작물의 생산성에 매우 큰 영향을 주므로 생육에 필요한 알맞은 토양수분을 유지를 위해 적절한 관수공급이 중요하다. 이러한 농촌지역의 물부족 현상을 대비하여 효율적인 관수공급으로 인한 물관리와 대체 수자원의 확보 및 활용방안이 요구되며, 대체 수자원을 저류하여 관수공급을 효과적으로 사용하는 방법들이 다각적으로 검토되고 있다. 특히, 빗물을 집수하여 재사용 하여 작물을 재배하는 방법이 친환경적일 뿐만 아니라, 수자원을 재활용하기 때문에 비용적인 측면에서 가장 효율적이므로 이러한 빗물을 저류조에 집수하여 효과적으로 재사용 하여 관수공급하는 방법에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 농촌지역에서 작물재배를 하기 위해 관수공급시 관정의 수량이 충분한 평상시는 관정펌프로부터 물을 길러 관수를 하도록 하였고, 관정의 수량이 부족한 비상시(가뭄)와 강우 예측시에는 저류조로부터 관수를 하도록 가뭄시나리오와 강우시나리오를 구축하였다. 효율적인 관수공급 운영을 위해 기상청의 7일 기상예보 자료를 획득하고 강우분석을 통해 저류량 예측을 하고 작물별 일관수공급량을 계산하여 물부족이 일어나지 않도록 최적의 운영방법론을 구축하였다. 이를 통해, 다중수원으로부터 확보된 수원을 저류조에 저장하여 가뭄과 같은 비상 상황에서 농업용수로 사용이 가능하도록 함으로써 비상 상황에서 농작물의 피해를 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
