부존자원이 부족하여 해외에너지 의존도가 97% 이상을 상회하고, 유가의 불안정, 지구 온난화에 대한 범세계적인 규제 등 우리나라의 현실을 감안하면 재생에너지의 적극적인 개발을 통해 부존자원의 활용도를 극대화할 수 있는 방안을 적극 강구해야 할 것이다. 소수력자원은 순수 부존자원이며, 무공해 청정에너지로서 잠재량의 약 3.0% 정도 밖에 개발되지 않은 개발가능성이 큰 에너지원으로써, 소수력자원면에서 유럽의 여러 나라에 뒤지지 않는 우리 나라에서는 일반하천 개발의 경우 댐 건설에 따른 환경피해를 염려한 환경단체와 지역주민의 인식 부족 등으로 활성화되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 소수력개발에 관한 민원 등의 사유가 없고, 미활용되는 소수력자원을 가지고 있는 농업용 저수지, 농업용 보, 하수처리장 및 정수장 등의 물 관련 설비를 이용한 소수력발전의 초기설계 및 성능특성 분석에 관하여 논의하였다. 농업용 저수지는 경상북도 경주시 덕동리에 위치한 덕동저수지를 대상으로 하였으며, 그림 1과 그림 2는 덕동저수지의 유량지속곡선과 성능특성 분석결과를 보여준다.

소수력자원은 신재생에너지 중에서도 온실가스 배출량이 가장 적고 에너지밀도가 매우 높기 때문에 개발할 가치가 큰 청정부존자원으로 평가되고 있다. 본 연구는 프란시스 수차의 국산화 개발 연구로써 프란시스수차 외형설계에 필요한 기본사항과 제작, 프란시스수차의 설치 및 시운전, 프란시스수차의 성능시험을 수행하였다. 이에 대한 분석 결과, 개발된 프란시스수차는 기계적인 성능과 수력학적인 성능면에서 만족할 만한 결과를 보여주어 프란시스수차의 상용화에 대한 기반이 마련되었다.

This study estimates the value of irrigation water in Korea using an economic programming model that is constructed with all the resource endowment constraints, technology restrictions and policy variables. The variability and uncertainty of water resource endowment are incorporated into the model through the chance-constrained technique. Solving the profit maximization problems with gradually reduced water endowments, we derive a series of shadow values of irrigation water. It has been found that uncertainty in water supply raises the damage from water loss, and the marginal damage increases in water loss.

This research was conducted to improve availability of agricultural by-products, national natural resources that could be used as fertilizer source, by estimating the amount of production and collecting main contents of fertilizer substances from previous studies and data, in order to be used as basic data to investigate national resources that could be used as alternatives for imported oil-cakes in the future. Conversion factor was used to estimate annual production of agricultural by-products for main 34 crop types in 2018. For total agricultural by-products, rice straws accounted at 50.3% for the highest proportion, followed by 8.7% of rice husks, showing that by-products from rice harvest accounted at 59.0% for all by-products. Further, there were listed the contents of fertilizer substances (nitrogen, phosphoric acid, potash) in 40 types of by-products from agricultural areas. The average contents of nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash in agricultural by-products were 1.43%, 0.59%, and 1.90%, respectively. As a result of estimating the annual nitrogen supply amount from 26 agricultural by-products in 2018, it was found that it could supply 44,911 tons of nitrogen. The investigated by-products contained fertilizer substances such as nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash, but the contents were lower compared to castor oil-cake used as main component of organic fertilizer. Therefore, resource management plan needs to be established for efficient use of by-products because time, location, and nutrient content of agricultural by-product production were extremely different. Research on fertilizer and manure using agricultural by-products need to be conducted to develop and distribute alternatives for imported oil-cakes.

Types of agricultural policy can be catagorized into two general cases: price and income supports. Income supports are any government program designed to provide farmers with higher incomes than they would receive otherwise. These direct cash payments to farmers are known as "deficiency payment" or "direct payment" because they compensate the farmer for the failure of the market to provide farmers with adequate prices. The direct payment to environment-friendly agriculture is a form of income supports for the agriculture production using less pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Because no significant regulation exists on the use of fertilizers substituting chemical fertilizers for crop, the role of the payment on reducing environmental impacts of agriculture is not entirely clear. This uncertainty is likely to be particularly severe in the case that farmers with low-quality land showing greater demand for fertiliser have an incentive to transition to environment-friendly agriculture. The paper shows the case of the current payment system in Korea.

Papua New Guinea, birthplace of the South Pacific, is a natural nation which have potential of increasing crops output because it has optimum condition for crop growth as tropical rain forest climate under hot and humid climate. Farming village of Papua New Guinea want to produce crops for create income beyond the self-sufficiency. It needs the technological transfer such as irrigation facilities and understanding of agricultural weather condition for good crops production. In particular, it needs a improvement through pH, EC, ORP for make optimum soil condition and it need the standardization production and farm products what the consumer wants. Internationally technical cooperation is needed for agricultural development of Papua New Guinea and maintenance of international cooperation will help for economic development between the two countries. In particular, basic environment research for agricultural development of Papua New Guinea is expected to play a larger role of technical cooperation of agriculture.

Biomass is considered to be a major potential fuel and renewable resource for the future. In fact, there is high potential to produce significant amount of energy from biomass around the world. In spite of the potential, there are a few efforts in biomass utilization in this nation. In this study, elemental biomass data was obtained with respect to the amount and calorific values of agricultural residues. Rice straw and husks were not included in the evaluation due to their demand from alternative uses such as livestock feedings, bedding materials, and so forth. Dry basis high calorific values are about 4,500 kcal/kg for all the agricultural residues investigated, similar to literature data. Energy densities or unit area energy value, from pepper and sesame were significant and comparable to those of woody biomass. These elemental data for biomass resources will Provide the background of Planning and development of biomass energy Program, which is getting more feasible along with advances in energy conversion technologies such as micro gas turbines.

제주지역은 대륙과 해양을 연결하는 요충지로서 한라산을 중심으로 동서사면은 $3{\sim}5^{\circ}$의 완만한 경사를 이루고 있다. 연평균 강우량은 1,975mm로서 국내 최다우 지역이나 제주도의 지질 특성상 도내 대부분의 지역이 투수성이 높은 다공질 현무암으로 구성되어 있는 관계로 지표수의 발달이 미약한 반면 지하수가 풍부하게 부존되어 있으며 기저지하수, 준 기저지하수, 상위지하수, 기반암지하수로 이루어져 있다. 최근 우리나라의 교토의정서 비준으로 인한 온실가스 감축이 불가피함에 따라 대체 재생가능한 에너지를 이용한 풍력발전시대가 도래하고 있으며, 제주 행원풍력발전단지에 설치된 총 15기 발전장치의 현실성과 경제성 입증을 통해 제주지역의 풍력에너지를 이용한 지하수 취수시스템을 제안하였다. 본 연구는 제주, 고산, 서귀포, 성산포지역에 대한 제주지방기상청 연평균 풍속자료$(2004{\sim}2005)$를 통하여 대상지역내 적용 가능한 로터(Roter), 나셀(Nacelle), 타워(Tower), 발전기를 포함한 발전장치를 선정하였으며, 공기역학적(Aerodynamic)특성에서 전기에너지로 변환한 풍력에너지를 지하수 취수시스템으로 적용하기까지의 전력공급절차를 도출하였다. 또한 생산되어진 풍력에너지 용량에 적용 가능한 수중.육상모터펌프를 산정하여 '제주도 지하수개발.이용시설 설치 및 관리기준(2004)'에서 제시한 구조도를 바탕으로 대상지역내 지하수위를 고려한 지하수 취수시스템을 도시하였다. 제주도는 지형 및 지질적인 특성상 수자원을 지하수에 의존할 수밖에 없는 특수한 지역이므로 2002년말 통계를 살펴보면 생활용, 공업용, 농업용으로 각각 57만$m^2$, 11만$m^2$, 56만$m^2$를 포함한 1일 최대 124만$m^2$의 지하수를 사용하고 있다. 따라서 풍력에너지를 이용한 지하수 취수시스템을 도입하여 재생가능한 에너지이용 효과와 세계인이 공감하는 청정한 관광자원으로 활용 가능할 것이라 판단된다.
