This study was carried out to develop a standard methods of mechanized salt-inserting salting process for winter cabbage to produce kimchi. Mid or large scaled mechanized kimchi plants were surveyed to select dominant variables of the mechanized salting process. Salt concentration of salting water, salting time and dewatering time were selected as the dominant variables of the salting process. A series of laboratorial experiment was performed with winter cabbage to determine desirable conditions for the variables. A supplementary experiment with cabbages of the other seasons was executed also to compare the determined conditions each other. Finally the determined conditions of the salting process were tested by plant scale experiments with winter cabbage and proved their validity.

Changes in thermal conductivity of petiole tissue of Chinese cabbage during steam heating and salting were measured by probe method. The thermal conductivity($k_e,\;W/m{\cdot}K$) of the tissue decreased with the increase in gas content and the decrease in moisture content. The correlating equation. $k_e=0.0192$ MC-0.6284 $V_a-1.3252$, obtained over the range of moisture content(MC) of 92 to 96% and gas content($V_a$) of 0 to 0.15 ml/g cabbage at $30^{\circ}C$ The thermal conductivity of salted cabbage was about $0.04\;W/m{\cdot} K$ higher than that of raw cabbage at the same moisture content.

This study was performed to develop an economical culture method of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) for kimchi fermentation. Leuconostoc mesenteroides WiKim32 was grown to $1{\times}10^9CFU/mL$ and maintained at 8.88 log CFU/mL for four days by culturing in kimchi cabbage juice (KCJ) without supplements and sterilization. Leuconostoc mesenteroides WiKim32 was cultured in 100 mL of KCJ by inoculating with 0.1% starter culture and adding 100 mL of KCJ everyday by adjusting pH to 5.5 using 1 M NaOH at $20^{\circ}C$ for four days. KCJ was prepared by extraction of kimchi cabbage leaves after washing them with citric acid and ethanol. Adjusting pH over 6.0 was favorable for the growth of LAB in the initial stage, but LAB growth was retarded in the later stage. In contrast, adjusting pH below 5.0 was not beneficial for the growth of LAB; therefore, pH was adjusted to 5.5.

This study investigated the effects of conventional predrying and modified atmosphere (MA) on the head quality and storability of Chinese cabbage 'Norang' cultivar. Immediately after harvest, heads were predried for 2 days and MA stored in $50{\mu}m$ PE film packages at $4^{\circ}C$. MA packaging restrained Hunter L and b values of Chinese cabbage more effectively than non-packaging during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. But there was little change between the two treatments. Fresh weight decreased less in heads treated with predrying and MA than non-treatment during storage. Predried Chinese cabbage heads kept a high level of soluble solids in 4 weeks of storage, while non-packaging maintained high contents of soluble solids for 6 weeks of storage period. Chinese cabbage heads contained 7.0 mg/gFW glucose, 6.3 mg/gFW fructose, and 0.6 mg/gFW sucrose as major soluble sugars at harvest. The content of sugars decreased immediately after predrying and increased steadily after 2 weeks storage. It was found inappropriate to assess head quality of Chinese cabbage by investigating was investigated by Hunter a, firmness, dry matters content, pH, and soluble sugars after predrying and MA package. Marketability of Chinese cabbage was lost when heads were stored at room temperature in 2 weeks. It showed poor appearance of heads stored at $4^{\circ}C$ in 7 weeks. Decay occurred in Chinese cabbage stored in MA under excessive relative humidity. Predried head showed good appearance during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 7 weeks. As a result, Chinese cabbage heads can be successfully stored for at least 7 weeks with predrying and MA storage.

Five strains of Korean entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN), steinernematids and heterorhabditids were evaluated and tried in laboratory, pot, and vegetable greenhouses for environmentally friendly control of diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xyiostella, from 2002 to 2005. LC$_{50}$ values of five EPN strains against DBM were different depending on nematode strain and DBM instar. LC$_{50}$ value of Steinernema carpocapsae GSN1 (GSN1) was the lowest representing 2.6$\sim$3.9 infective juveniles (Ijs, 3rd stage) to 2nd to 4th instars of DBM. Pathogenicity of five effective strains against DBM was different depending on nematode strain, concentration, application times, and vegetable in pot. The most effective nematode was GSN1. Steinernema spp. was more effective than Heterorhabditis spp. against DBM. Two or three times of applications of EPN were effective regardless of nematode strain and concentration in pot. Efficacy of EPN was different depending on vegetable species. Efficacy was higher on Chinese cabbage, red mustard, and Ssamchoo than that on cabbage, kale, and leaf broccoli. Efficacy of GSN1, Steinernema GSNUS-10, Steinernema CSNUS-14, and Heterorhabditis GSNUH-1 was variable depending on nematode strain, concentration, application times, and vegetable in greenhouse experiments. GSN1 was the most effective and 100,000 infective juveniles per m$^2$(=$1\times10^9$ Ijs/ha) resulted in higher efficacy. Three times of application of nematodes led to higher control efficacy than one or two applications. Efficacy of nematodes was higher on Chinese cabbage than cabbage or kale in greenhouse.

배추재배에서 8월은 파종 및 솎우기는 물론 추비까지 실시하게되며, 육묘의 경우는 이것을 정식을 하게 된다. 따라서 8월은 배추재배에서 가장 중요한 달인 것이다.

This study was evaluated the effect of attractant or repellent plants for establishing push-pull strategy for insect pest management of organic Chinese cabbage cultivation. The attractant or repellent effect of Ten plants, marigold, rye, Chinese chive, lettuce, chicory, Nongwoo-chicory, crown daisy, Treviso, green leaf mustard, and red leaf mustard were evaluated against diamondback moth, striped flea beetle, aphids, brown-winged stink bug and cabbage stink bug in organic Chinese cabbage field in Seosan in 2012. Of the ten repellent or attractant plants, rye and chicory attracted significantly brown-winged stink bug and cabbage stink bug, respectively. Aphids ate attracted significantly to the rye rather than the other plants. Leaf mustard was attracted cabbage stink bug and brown-winged stink bug in order. Cabbage stink bug was attracted by only a combination of lettuce and Chinese chive. Diamondback moth, striped flea beetle, aphid, brown-winged stink bug and cabbage stink bug were significantly repelled by single or combined cultivation of crown daisies, Treviso, and leaf mustard in organic Chinese cabbage cultivation. The results above-mentioned indicate that selected insect-attractant and -repellent plants can be used as tools for integrated pest managements of Chinese cabbage.
