Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni causes black spot symptom on fruit of plum, resulting in yield loss by reduction of marketable fruit production. To develop an effective control program, some chemicals were sprayed in various scheme during dormant season and growing season after blooming period. Copper-based chemicals were sprayed during dormant season and antibiotic-based chemicals were sprayed during fruit growing season. Sprays of antibiotic-based chemicals in growing season was more effective than copper-based chemicals sprays in dormant season. Three applications of antibiotic-based chemicals in 10 days interval starting 10 days after full blooming controlled disease incidence as much as 93%, whereas applications of copper-based chemicals in dormant season controlled 26-42%. Antibiotic-based chemicals application starting 10 days after full blooming was more effective than starting 20 or 30 days after full blooming.

A computer simulation was carried out to investigate the optimum capacity of liquid manure tank spreader which is used as a tractor attachment. Soil physical properties, such as soil moisture content, bulk density, soil hardness and soil types were measured in the 10 major rice production area for computer simulation. Mathematical model which include soil physical properties and vehicle factor was used for computer simulation. Most of the soil type of the investigated area was sandy clay loam. Soil moisture content ranged between 30 and 40% mostly. Soil bulk density was in the range of 1,500 to 1,700 kg/$m^3$. Soil hardness ranged between 1 to 18 $cm^2$. Soil hardness incorporate the effects of many soil physical properties such as soil moisture content, soil type and soil bulk density, and so the range of soil hardness is greater than any other physical properties. The capacity of liquid manure tank spreader was above 3,000 kg$_{f}$ for the most of the investigated areas, and mostly in the range of 4,000 to 6,000 $kg_f$ depending upon the slip. But for the soft soil area such as Andong and Asan, the tractor itself has mobility problem and shows no pulling force for some places. For this area, the capacity of liquid manure tank spreader ranged between 1,000 and 2,000 $kg_f$ mostly, so the capacity of liquid manure tank spreader should be designed as a small capacity trailer compared to the other area.mpared to the other area.

This study was conducted to provide the basic data about the health effects of pesticide exposure among farmers for agricultural health study. We analyzed 412 self-administered questionnaires collected from the male farmers who spray pesticides in Kyoung-ju area, Korea. Survey questions were about chronic symptoms, acute symptoms while pesticide spraying, pesticide intoxication accident, safety rules, protective equipments etc. The correlations among the variables related to pesticide exposure and the factors in acute pesticide poisoning and chronic symptoms of farmers were also analyzed. For chronic symptoms, the prevalence of 'tiredness and languor', 'lumbago', 'nocturia', 'shoulder pain', 'numbness', and, for acute symptoms while pesticide spraying, the experience rate of 'itching sense of skin', 'dizziness/headache', 'fatigue', 'eye glaring' were high compared with other symptoms. For 'experience of intoxication accident by pesticide in family', 7.1% of the subjects experienced the accident and the causes were pesticide spraying, food contamination by pesticide, suicide etc. Among safety rules, 'take a bath after spraying', 'change clothes after spraying' were kept relatively well, and, for protective equipments, hat, boots, mask, gloves, protective clothes(lower) were put on relatively well. The factors associated with acute pesticide poisoning were the extent of keeping safety rules, spraying time, orchard cultivation, agricultural area and spraying days per year etc. And the factors associated with chronic symptoms were acute symptoms while pesticide spraying, agricultural area, farming career, extent of keeping safety rules, extent of agricultural work and the pesticide exposure index etc. From these results, it is suggested that to reduce the health effects by pesticide exposure among farmers, the education to promote to keep safety rules and wear protective equipments, and information services should be recommended. And further studies on the long term health effects of pesticide exposure among farmers are required.

To see effect of marine rock powder and fungal culture supernatant, we analyzed the biodegradation rates of harmful marine dinoflagellate, Heterosigma akashiwo and Prorocentrum minimum for developing the effective control methodology of algal bloom. Relatively low removal rates were observed in the treatment of marine rock powder or buffer solution alone. However, the lysis of H. akashiwo and P. minimum was enhanced in the combined treatments of marine rock powder with fungal supernatant. The effective concentration and exposure time of fungal supernatant for the lysis of H. akashiwo and P. minimum were 5 ml/l and 30 minutes, respectively. These results suggest that the fungal supernatant may be a biocontrol agent for the control of algal blooms in seawater.

방제 작업은 병해충을 줄여 농산물의 품질과 생산량을 높이기 위한 필수 작업이다. 하지만 방제 작업은 고온 다습한 환경에서 작업하여 고된 작업 강도와 농민의 농약 중독 문제, 고령화 여성화로 인한 농가 일손 부족 문제로 농촌에서는 기피하고 있는 작업 중 하나이다. 이러한 점을 보완하기 위해 동력 살포기와 같은 기계를 이용하여 살포 작업을 실시하고 있으며, 스피드 스프레이어의 경우 2015년 기준 2,073 대가 농가에 공급되어졌다. 스피드 스프레이어를 사용하는 농가는 점차 증가하고 있으나, 현재 스피드 스프레이어의 살포 방식의 경우 농약을 다량 살포함으로써, 농약의 낭비, 환경오염의 문제점이 나타나고 있다. 이러한 점을 보완하기 위해 최근에는 방제 작업의 방식이 붐을 이용한 방제 작업으로 바뀌어가고 있는 추세이다. 붐 방제기의 경우 붐에 노즐을 배치하여 작물에 근접한 위치에서 농약을 정밀 살포하며, 스피드 스프레이어와 다르게 농약의 낭비를 줄일 수 있으며, 농약의 살포량을 제어하기 쉬운 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 트랙터 부착형 붐 방제기가 아닌 스피드 스프레이어를 개선한 붐식 스피드 스프레이어를 개발하기 위하여 현재 사용되고 있는 붐 방제기의 연구 동향 및 제품을 소개하고 개발에 필요한 기초 자료로 활용하고자 한다. 기존의 붐 방제기는 트랙터에 부착하는 형태로 개발되어졌으며 트랙터의 부착위치에 따라 전륜, 후륜형으로 나뉘고, 작물의 크기에 따라서 붐의 높이 및 붐의 각도를 조절하는 구조로 제작하여 사용되고 있다.

This study was conducted to find the changes of growth, seed yield and several characteristics of sesame by leaf spray of boron as a solution which is likely to be lack in the soil. It is carried out at low land developed 5 years ago. The amount of 200l /l0a boron as boric acid is sprayed in each treatment at the 11 node stage of sesame in main stem. The spraying concentrations of boric acid are 0.0, 0.2 and 0.4% in each treatment of the level low plot and the ridge height 15cm plot. The result shows that leaf area is increased in proportion to the concentration of boric acid in each treatment of the level low and the ridge height 15cm, and the degree of increase of each node order is remarkable in lower leaves and is more remarkable in the treatment of level low plot. The effects of leaf spray of boric acid are not only the increase of leaf area but also dry weight, no. of capsule per plant, 1,000 grains weight of capsule setting under middle position. As a result, the amount of seed is increased in 53% in the treatment of level low. The change of major characteristics according to leaf spray of boric acid is generally great in the treatment of level low. Especially the increase of leaf area in the part of upper leaves and low leaves is effective to improve other characteristics.

Pest control treatment was carried out using an unmanned automatic pesticide spraying system that can spray pesticides on crops while moving autonomously to control pests in vegetable greenhouse. As a result of examining the control effect on tomato and strawberry on thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) and greenhouse whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum) pests, 85.6% of yellow flower thrips were found in tomatoes and 87.5% in strawberries, and 81.7% (tomato) and 80.6% (strawberry) of greenhouse whitefly. In addition, the control effect according to the pesticide treatment method showed a control effect of 81.7% of the chemical spraying treatment by manpower and 83.9% of the automatic moving pesticide spraying treatment (F=22.1, p < 0.001). When comparing the control effect between the two treatment sections, there was no significance, but the automatic transfer spraying treatment showed a 2.2% higher effect. On the other hand, as a result of comparing the spraying time of the drug, the automatic unmanned control sprayer had a spraying time of 5 min/10a, which took about 25 min less than the conventional manpower spraying time of 25-30 min/10a. Based on these results, it was judged that the automatic transfer spraying method could be usefully used for efficient pest control in the facility greenhouse during the peak period of development.

국내에 보급된 방제기는 인력분무기, 동력 분무기, 동력 살분무기, 스피드 스프레이어, 붐방제기 등이 있다. 그 중 동력경운기에 탑재하거나 트랙터에 견인되는 동력분무기를 주축으로 기계화되어 있다. 작은 입경의 분무입자로서 가급적 적정량을 균일하게 뿌릴 때 방제효율을 높일 수 있는데도 불구하고, 동력분무기에 의한 액제 살포는 원거리 살포에 따라 분무입자의 입경 분포가 다양하며 대부분 분무입자가 매우 크므로 고른 살포를 기대하기 어렵기 때문에 약액을 1000대 1로 희석하여 흠뻑 적실 정도로 다량 살포를 하여 살포효율을 높이고 있다. 그러나 이러한 방제 방법은 효율성, 작업능률과 환경의 오염 측면에서 상당한 문제로 지적되고 있다.
