Agricultural R&D Programs of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forest and the Rural Development Administration are important for improving agricultural technology in Korea. However, the roles of these two agencies have been overlapped as the research fields and funds are extended through educational-industrial-governmental-institutional cooperation programs. In this study, we analyzed the performances of two agencies. As a result, these programs of these agencies do not show much difference in the research area. A new direction for improving efficiency and solving problems of programs, with a variety of information about the role of two agencies and activation of agricultural R&D programs, will be provided by this performance analyses.

통합물관리를 위한 농촌용수 이 치수 관련 거버넌스를 체계화하고 기반을 마련하고자 지역 내 거버넌스 및 통합물관리에 대한 사례조사, 의견 수렴, 토론 및 소통 등의 과정을 거쳐 사회적으로 수용성이 높은 '농촌용수 통합물관리 거버넌스의 운영 방안' 모델 개발을 중심으로 수행하였다. 우리나라의 물관련 거버넌스는 해당 유역과 단체의 물문제를 중심으로 활동하고 있으며, 국가적 차원의 통합물관리 체계에 발맞춰 나가기 위해서는 농업인 거버넌스 활성화가 필요하다. 또한 농업인 거버넌스는 농업용수 등 물관련 문제 해결에 적극 참여하여 협력과 소통을 기반으로 농업용수부문의 주도권을 확보하여야 할 것이다. 지역 물관리 현황 분석 및 현안 과제를 도출하기 위해 최근 농업용수와 관련한 민감한 이슈가 있는 금강유역 내 위치한 지구를 시범지구로 선정하였다. 논 시범지구는 현북 양수장으로 선정하였으며, 비교지구는 정암 양수장으로 선정하였다. 시범지구인 현북 양수장은 충남 부여군에 위치하고 있어 농업인 단체의 지역본부나 지회가 참여 할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 통합물관리를 위한 현장의 주체인 수감원과 시설관리기관인 한국농어촌공사 부여지사가 참여하도록 하였다. 농촌용수 통합물관리 거버넌스는 협의의 거버넌스와 광의의 거버넌스로 구분하였다. 협의의 거버넌스 구성은 해당지구의 농업인, 기초지방자치단체, 한국농어촌공사 지사 등으로 구성한다. 광의의 거버넌스 구성은 해당지구의 광역 및 기초지방자치단체, 한국농어촌공사 지사, 지역의 농업인 사회단체 등 10개 이내의 기관과 단체로 구성한다. 거버넌스의 주된 활동은 해당 지역·지구의 농업용수 관리 개선 및 농업인의 적극적 참여를 위한 광역지방자치단체, 기초지방자치단체 및 한국농어촌공사와의 소통과 협력, 갈등을 조정한다. 이와 더불어 농업용수관리 개선을 위한 정책개발, 기존 제도의 개선, 효율적인 물관리를 위한 실천사업 관련된 다양한 연구조사사업 수행, 지역 농업인 영농 활동의 질 향상을 위한 욕구 조사, 중복규제 등 현안 사안에 대한 법 및 정책 개선, 대안 발굴 등 정책과 제도운영 및 개선방안 연구·조사 사업에 전력투구하는 조직체로서 기능을 수행한다. 따라서, 농업인들이 자발적으로 국가적 차원에서 제시하는 농업용수 관련 정책을 따르기 위해 농촌용수 통합물관리 거버넌스를 통한 정책 제안이 반드시 필요하다.

This article is researched to analyze what kinds of projects were conducted by the special grant, the balanced development special account(BSDA), and the municipal projects in the case of Sangjucity and Seochengun, in the introduction time of the bock grants of BSDA and the municipal development plan in 2010. Furthermore this study presents the problems and the direction of improvement. For the territorial integration of a regional development in long-term, I suggest that the spacial grant and BSDA are necessary to be integrated because of ambiguous difference. And also the block grants of current 24 projects in 7 groups should be reclassified as the concept and the functional feature of pluralistic rural development.

Recently, rural areas are rapidly developing, while existing infrastructure is inadequate and aging compared to developing rural areas. The most representative of these is the sewer system. Therefore, in this study, the rural area of Gyeonggi A city was selected as the study area and analyzed the effect of the sewer maintenance business on the operation of the sewage treatment plant. The analysis items were pollutant treatment efficiencies, the changes of inflow sewage amount, sewage concentration, influnet load, and C / N ratio by comparing before and after the development. As a result of the analysis, the sewage amount increased significantly after the development, and the sewage concentration increased after the development and the load of the sewage in the wastewater treatment plant also increased after the development. And improvement and management of inflow of unidentified water such as infiltration water and influent water in the sewage pipe was improved due to improvement of sewage pipe, which is considered to have affected the increase of C / N ratio and the improvement of TN and TP removal efficiency. The results of this study can be used as a representative example of the sewerage maintenance project in the rural area that positively influenced the operation of the sewage.

This study analyzed investment effects for Practical Field Studies conducted by the KOPIA (Korea Program on International Agriculture) centers, which are part of the ODA project operated by the Rural Development Administration. Focusing on the productivity and effectiveness factors of each project, a questionnaire survey was sent to each KOPIA center associated with each project. The results demonstrated the production and profitability of farms participating in the pilot project were significantly improved compared to those of farms that did not participate in the project. Also, in the satisfaction results of taste, nutrition, and freshness, the participating firms could significantly improve them when being compared to those of non-participating farms. It is highly expected to contribute to improving the operational effectiveness of Practical Field Projects conducted in Africa based on the results of each project's performance and economic feasibility. This study also can lead to a change in the social perception of ODA projects by raising people's awareness of ODA projects.

본 연구는 영국의 환경농업장려지구(ESAs) 사업의 내용과 이에 대한 농민의 태도를 설문조사를 통하여 분석함으로써 친환경농업정책의 내용과 한계를 파악하고자 하였다. 영국에서 실시하고 있는 환경농업정책은 농민의 자발적인 참여를 원칙으로 하고 있으며, 농민은 정해진 계약에 따라 영농을 하게 되면 일정한 보상금을 받는다. 특정지구에서만 실시하는 사업과 전지역에서 시행되는 사업이 있으며 동일사업에 대한 적용 기준과 보상금 등은 지역마다 상이히다. 이중 가장 대표적인 환경농업정책은 ESAs 사업이다. 이는 농업으로 인해 환경이 민감하게 훼손될 수 있는 지구를 설정하여, 환경 농업을 장려하는 사업이다. 이에 참여함으로써 농민이 받는 장려금은 환경 친화적인 영농을 함으로서 예상되는 농민의 손실분을 고려하여 결정된다. 이와 같은 환경농업정책에 대하여 영국의 농민들의 태도는 적극적이는 못하다. 경영규모가 적은 농민과 지정지구내에서 영농하는 농민들은 비교적 친환경 농업에 적극적이다. 대규모 농장의 경우 경제적 수익 향상을 농업의 주목적으로 생각하고 있어 환경농업정책의 참여에 소극적이다. 따라서 환경농업은 소규모 농장을 중심으로 국지적으로 이루어지기 때문에 자발적인 참여를 전제로 하는 환경농업 정책의 한계로 지적되고 있다.

This study aims to identify the factors influencing residents' satisfaction for the urban regeneration projects in South Korea. Data were collected from 250 people with self-administrated questionnaires. A factor analysis identified three factors which are positive economic impacts, negative social impact, and positive environment impact. The positive economic impact has the highest variance explained. Results showed that high income and students and unemployed are less like to be satisfied with their community life. And whereas negative social impacts are less likely to have community satisfaction, positive economic impacts are more likely to have community satisfaction. This study suggested that community leaders and policy makers should consider perceived impacts and income when implementing development projects.

The purpose of this study is to examine the aspects and the characteristics of conflict among people in agricultural villages shown in the course of conducting a rural community development project, and to suggest a theoretical basis for the solution of the conflict. various theories on rural community development projects and conflict, and relevant sociopsychological theories were perused to lay a theoretical foundation for the study, and 5 actual cases of conflicts in agricultural experience villages were analyzed in the light of the grounded theory which is one of suitable methods of qualitative research. And comparative and comprehensive analysis of conflicts of different farm villages was done. Based on the result of analysis of conflict among residents on agricultural experience village, this paper suggests some ways for solution of the conflict.

The diffusion of innovation theory provided the basis for a model of agricultural development that the extension service continues to use today. This study aims to examine the history, influence, and impacts of innovation diffusion theory on the extension service. It reviews some of the major developments in the literature related to the theory, examines its criticisms, and discusses the implications for extension. As such, innovators are younger, more cosmopolitan, have higher incomes than later adopters, and have the largest operations of all adopter categories. There are two critiques on diffusion of innovation theory in which are the method and inequity recurring from diffusion.

The objectives of the study are to improve techniques for social impact assessment and to suggest their measuring methods to apply in small scale rural development projects. Population, residence, industries, and traffic volumes were selected to measure the social and economic impact assessment of Seongeup agricultural water development project in Jeju Province. Existing data gathering methods were used to estimate the changes of population and traffic volumes. Interview schedule for villagers was applied to estimate the residents' satisfaction to living environments. Interview schedule for experts was applied to estimate agricultural productivity and land price. The results of social and economic impact assessment show that there will be considerable changes in living environments, agricultural productivity, and land price. On the contrary, the project will make little impacts on the changes of population, em-ployment, and traffic volumes.
