Strawberry cultivation in Korea is grown in greenhouse, but most farms manage their water supply using a timer control method based on the experience of growers. The timer control has problems in that it is difficult to consider the weather condition, the growth stage of crops, and the moisture content of the substrate, so that the crops cannot be managed at an optimal level, and the accuracy of cultivation management are lacking. The watering methods using integrated solar irradiance and substrate moisture contents are control systems that provide eco-friendly and precise water supply considering the growth conditions of crops. The purpose of this study was to compare the combined water supply control with integrated solar irradiance and substrate moisture contents and timer control method in hydroponic cultivation of strawberries using coir, and to set the optimal integrated solar irradiance level for complex water supply control. The irrigation system was automatically watered when it reached 100, 150, 250 J·cm^-2 based on the external solar irradiance, and forced irrigation was performed at a substrate moisture content of less than 60% in all treatments. The amount of irrigation at once was 50 mL. The timer treatment was applied as a control. The smaller the level of integrated radiation to start watering, the greater the daily amount of irrigation. Both the fresh weight and dry weight per plant were higher in the complex irrigation control method than the timer control, and the 100 and 150 J·cm^-2 treatment had the highest fresh weight, and the 100 J·cm^-2 treatment showed a significantly higher dry weight. The yield was also significantly higher in the complex control method than in the timer, and the early yield increased as the level of integrated solar irradiance was smaller. The fresh weight of fruit was the lowest in the timer-controlled irrigation. As a result of this study, the possibility of combined control irrigation method using integrated solar irradiance and substrate moisture content was confirmed for precise water supply management of strawberries in hydroponics.

현재 우리나라의 탁약주 용 Rice-Koji 제조 용종국균으로 널리 분양되고 있는 분양되고 있는 fawachi, S-27 균주가 생성하는 Amylase의 효소학적 특성과 Rice-Koji i제조 시 유기산 및 당화 효소의 생성 조건을 검토했다. 1. 본 균은 유기산 생성력이 강하고 또 생성하는 당화효소 및 액화효소는 내산성이 극히 강하며 pH3~5의 범위내에서 최고 활성을 나타내었으므로 탁약주 제조 용 종국균으로 아주 적합하였다. 2. 본 균의 발아 최적온도는 36$^{\circ}C$이었으며 Rice -Koji제조시 제국시간을 40시간으로 볼 때 유기산 생성의 최적온도는 32$^{\circ}C$이었고 당화효소 생성의 최적온도는 36$^{\circ}C$이었으며 고온인 4$0^{\circ}C$에서는 유기산 생성이 극히 불량하였다. 3. Rice-Kojiw제조시 당화효소의 생성은 배지의 수분함량 35%일 때 최고치를 보였으며 유기산 생성은 이 보다 높은 조건인 수분함량 40%일 때 이었고 비교적 건조한 조건인 수분함량 30%일 때는 유기산 생성이 특히 불량하였다. 4. 배지의 두께가 3cm이상이 되면 유기산 및 당화효소 생성에 않은 지장을 주었다. 5. 종국균의 점종량은 유기산 및 당화효소의 생성에 별로 영향을 미치지 못했다.

1. 버섯종균 개선 버섯의 품질과 수량을 좌우하는 주요 요인은 종균의 활력이다. 그러나 라오스에서는 종균의 활력이 낮아 조그마한 100cc 병에 배양완성하는데 14일이 소요되는 등 볍씨종균의 균사생장과 균사밀도가 매우 낮음을 확인하였다. 따라서 100cc 병을 1000cc 비닐봉지로 개선하여 입봉하는데 소요되는 시간을 10배로 단축 개선하였다. 또한 곡립종균을 액체종균으로 대처한 결과 균사생장속도가 2배가 빨랐으며 작업속도가 4배가 빨라졌다. 2. 버섯배지제조 방법 개선 미세하고 건조한 톱밥에 수분을 첨가하는데 50%이하의 수분함량을 유지함으로서 균사가 표면에만 자라고 있는 것을 확인하고 버섯 배지제조 시 물리성을 개선하기 위하여 볏짚을 잘게 잘라 10%~100%까지 혼합하는 실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 톱밥 50%에 볏짚 50% 혼합하는 것이 균사생장 속도와 밀도가 좋았다. 또한 왕겨도 30%정도 혼합한 배지처리에서 가장 좋았다. 또한 수분함량도 65%로 향상하여 혼합하도록 지도하였다. 3. 버섯배지살균 방법 개선 라오스에서는 왕겨를 태워 살균을 실시하고 있다. 화력이 약하여 살균한 배지에서 볍씨의 새싹이 돋아나오는 경우를 발견하였다. 이는 살균이 제대로 되지 않았음을 의미한다. 그래서 이동식 직화식 살균을 권하였으나 시설자재값이 감당이 안되어 엄두를 내지 못하였다. 따라서 가스버너를 도입하여 단시간에 화력을 높여 살균을 실시하므로서 세균의 증식을 막아 균사생장속도를 빠르게 하고 균사량의 축적을 높이는데 교육을 하고 컨설팅을 실시하여 개선하였다. 4. 병뚜껑과 형성틀을 대체한 링을 이용한 입봉작업시간 단축과 비용절감 버섯봉지에 배지를 담는 입봉작업을 할 때 병뚜껑과 그의 형성틀을 끼우고 솜을 조금 뜯어 톱밥배지 위에 놓는 작업을 한다. 이는 아주 잘못된 방법이다. 왜 그렇게 하는가하는 것은 이해가 간다. 그렇게 하는 이유는 접종할 때 실내에서 그냥 접종하므로 뚜껑을 열때 보호막 역할을 할 것으로 생각하고 그렇게 하는데 천만의 말이다. 어떻든 뚜껑을 열면 잡균이 들어가는 것은 마찬가지이다. 그래서 이 솜을 배지표면에 놓으면 마른 솜이 그렇지 않아도 수분이 적은데 이 솜이 수분을 또 빼앗아 가버린다. 그래서 균사생장이 늘려 15일이면 다 자라야할 균사배양기간이 한달씩 걸려도 표면만 살짝 잘린 결과가 빗어진다. 이렇게 표면만 균사가 사탕 발림식으로 자라면 품질이 저하되고 수량이 적고 병해충에 저항력이 약해지게 된다. 따라서 뚜껑과 형성틀, 솜을 모두 없애고 봉지 상단부위를 U자형으로 꺽어서 링을 끼우는 방법을 실제로 실험으로 보여준 결과 작업능률이 5배로 빠르고 작업공정이 빨라짐으로서 세균번식밀도가 적어 균사생장 속도가 2배로 빨라졌고 수량이 배가됨을 증명하고 보급하여 많은 호평을 받았다.

The appropriate dripper position in perlite bag was investigated for tomato production. Drippers were laid at 5(F5), 15cm (F15) away from the stem base or 5cm at first and then moved to 15cm later (M5-15). Roots were developed more near the stem base in F5, while less in F15. Roots were distributed evenly in M5-15. In vertical distribution of water in perlite bag, water content was higher as it went deeper with the variation by dripper positions. Yield was high in F15 and low in F5. In conclusion the position of dripper is the best at 15cm from the stem base in perlite bag culture in view of root distribution and yield.

This study of afterripening conditions during oyster mushroom (Suhanneutari 1ho) cultivation in bottles was investigated. Medium materials were used poplar-sawdust (68%), cotton seed peel (16%), Beet pulp (8%) and cotton seed cake (8%). Mix of materials was used as a percentage of the volume and to adjust moisture content (67%). Autoclaved mediums were placed in low temperature storage ($20^{\circ}C$) and then moved in inoculation room and conducted mechanical inoculation. Mycelial culture temperature was maintained at $20{\sim}21^{\circ}C$ and cultured during 18 days. The afterripening period were 6days, 9days, 12days and 15 days at $25{\sim}27^{\circ}C$. The yield of fruit body was higher for 9 days (163.1g/bottle) and 12 days (160.7g/bottle) than that of other afterripening period. Second, in the changes in moisture content of the medium according to the afterripening period, no significant changes were observed during mycelial grwoth. The longer afterripening period was showed slightly lower weight of media. The moisture content of media after harvest at afterripening for 9 days had the biggest reduction than any other treatments. In addition, weight of media and yield of afterripening for 9 days were the lowest and highest, respectively.

The methods determining the growth rate of mold on beans were investigated in order to compare the growth of Aspergillus oryzae on lupinseed to that on soybean. The growth of A. oryzae on cooked whole or paste form of bean substrates was evaluated by the measurements of colony diameter and hyphae length of the mold. The mold showed characteristic lag times to form the colony on different types of substrate. The growth of colony diameter was coincided with the increase in $\alpha$-amino nitrogen content of the substrate when the moisture level of the substrates was similar each other. The colony diameter and the cultivation time after the lag period showed a straight line relationship, from which the growth rate was estimated. in general, lupinseed paste allowed faster growth of A. oryzae than soybean paste at the initial growth phase. The lag time to form the colony was 24.0 hrs on lupinseed paste and 44.4 hrs on soybean paste. The growth rate after colony formation was, however, 7.05 mm/day for lupinseed paste and 8.83mm/day for soybean paste, which indicated that the growth rate after the lag period was faster on soybean compared to lupinseed. The sporulation time of the mold was related to the lag time for the colony formation. The measurement of hyphae length on whole beans could be used as a simple and rapid method of estimating the growth property of mold on different substrates.11 showed that the growth of A. oryzae was partly hindered by the thick hull of the lupinseed.

To provide a basic information on the chemical concentrations of different raw materials used in mushroom cultivation, the raw materials were collected from 13 Flammulina velutipes, 14 Pleurotus eryngii, and 8 P. ostreatus farms and analyzed to calculate moisture contents, pH, total carbon(T-C), total nitrate(T-N), total phosphate(T-P) and 13 different cations. In our results, the C : N ratios of cotton seed meal, beet pulp, and corn-cob were 6~17, 12~29 and 56~127, respectively. Depending on the companies which process these materials, the range of C:N ratio of soybean curd residue was approximately either 8~9 or 14~17 with wider range of C : N ratio of the raw materials imported from other countries without the detection of heavy metals. In this study, the formula was provided to calculate the composition of mixed media for mushroom cultivation based on the ingredient chart of different raw materials.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of plant growth and production of tomato (Lycopersicon Esculentum Mill cv. Tefunis) according to the water content of non-recycled rockwool culture in high-rise tomato greenhouse. Daily irrigation amount was 3.8 times higher in the irrigation control by Integrated Solar Radiation (ISR) than in the Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) sensor. Water content of ISR and FDR was 90-95 and 60-65%, respectively. Plant height and weight of tomato fruit was 1.2-1.9 times longer and 1.2-2.0 times heavier in the ISR than in the FDR sensor, respectively. No significantly differed to sugar content of tomato by treatments. Marketable fruits were the higher 1.3 times in the ISR compared with the FDR sensor. Cracking percentage in the ISR was also the higher 2.0 times compared with FDR sensor. Therefore, Irrigation control by ISR was appropriate to improve of plant growth and production of tomato with non-recycled rockwool culture in greenhouse during long-term cultivation.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of water potential by PEG treatment on germination and quantitative changes of seed storage reserves of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], peanut(Arachjs hypogaea L.) and corn(Zea may L.). Water potential of PEG(M.W. 10, 000) solution as germination media was 0.0, -0.2, and -0.5MPa. The highest moisture uptake rate was found in soybean seedlings among three crops. Moisture content of seedlings of three crops was decreased at -0.5MPa treatment and seedling length was delayed with water potential decrement. As water potential decreased, decreasing rate of protein content of the seedlings compared to seeds was declined in soybean and peanut. Decreasing rate of starch content of the seedlings was decreased in corn at -0.5MPa treatment. Increasing rate of sugar content of the seedlings was markedly decreased at -0.5MPa treatment in all crops. The results of this experiment showed that availability of moisture and synthesis of sugar for seed germination were influenced below -0.5MPa water potential in three crops.

Measuring tray as a component in irrigation control system using drainage electrodes was designed and applied for tomato perlite bed culture, and the effectiveness of the irrigation control system was investigated in terms of cultural development and cultivation costs. Five different types of measuring trays equipped with drainage electrodes were tested and the traditional tray was used as the control equipped with time clock. After the first experiment, "Tube-2" was removed because of instability of water content in the substrate. After second experiment, "Tube-1" was removed because of instability of water content in the substrate and low plant yields. In third experiment, "Up-Board" exhibited the best stability in water contents and yields as well as efficiencies in water and fertilizer utilization. The "Up-Board" was the most economical and the easiest system among the tested trays. Therefore, the "Up-Board" system was concluded as the excellent design to apply for the control method using drainage electrodes for tomato perlite bed culture.
