이제 바다로부터 식량을 얻는 방법이 어선을 통해 포획하는데서 점점 연근해에서 양식을 통해 생산하는 쪽으로 선회를 하는 것이 세계적인 추세가 되어가고 있다. 이와 같은 양식업의 점진적 발전은 해수 환경을 보전하고 생산 비용을 절감할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 먹이(사료)를 요구하고 있다. 그러나 물고기의 먹이로 적합한 어분 및 잡어의 생산과 공급은 해마다 어족 자원의 고갈로 감소되고 있다. 이런 가운데 양식어종의 사료로 어분이나 잡어를 대체할 수 있는 단백질 공급원을 개발하고 활용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 역사적으로 대두는 약 5000년 전 중국에서 재배되기 시작했다. 사람들은 본격적으로 19세기 초부터 대두에 대한 연구를 시작하여 대두가 사람에게 중요한 단백질과 기름을 제공할 수 있다는 것을 깨달았다. 1950년대 초반에 이르러 대두박이 값싸지만 단백질이 풍부한 사료원료로서의 가치가 입증되면서, 축산업이 오늘의 전성기를 구가할 수 있는 계기가 마련되었다. 그렇지만 바다에서 식량을 생산하는데 있어서도 육지에서 가장 많이 재배되는 두류작물인 대두와 대두제품을 활용하기 시작한 것은 먼 오래전의 일이 아니다. 우리나라뿐만 아니라 세계 여러 나라에서도 담수어종인 잉어, 뱀장어 및 틸라피아등에서 대두박의 영양학적 우수성이나 경제성이 이미 입증된 바 있다. 앞으로 해산어 양식기술의 발달은 해산어용 전문 배합사료의 개발과 보급 없이는 불가능하기 때문에, 미국, 일본, 노르웨이등 해산어 양식 선진국들일수록 이 부문에 대한 연구 개발 노력이 특히 활발하다. 식생활은 물론이고 심지어는 친환경적 산업 제품에 이르기까지 대두와 대두제품이 우리의 각광을 받고 있는 것은 결코 콩이 지닌 물리적 성상, 영양학적 및 경제적 가치의 우수성 때문만은 아니다. 미국은 자국의 대두 생산자들이 생산해 낸 대두를 판매하면서 조성한 자조금을 모아 대두의 생산성을 향상시키기 위한 연구 개발과 국내외 시장을 확대하기 위한 마케팅 활동에 쓰고 있다. 이런 자조 노력은 비단 미국의 대두 농민들에게만 국한된 것이 아니다. 가깝게는 일본의 수산업과 해산어 양식산업의 발전은 중앙 및 지방 정부, 수협과 같은 어민 조합 및 연근해 수산업 종사자들이 출연한 기금을 통해 이루어지고 있음을 지난 8월 북해도의 양식산업을 시찰했을 때 확인할 수 있었던 사실이다. 이제 우리나라도 국민소득 1만불 시대를 넘어 2만불 시대를 열기 위한 청사진을 그릴 만큼 모든 경제의 규모가 확대되었을 뿐 아니라 질적으로 고도화되었다. 우리에게 필요한 것은 성숙된 산업사회에 걸맞는 각 산업 주체들의 의식이다. 한국의 양식산업도 자조 정신을 갖추어 생산성 향상에 초점을 맞춘 양식기술의 개발, 환경 보전을 고려한 양식장 관리 및 소비를 확대하기 위한 유통시스템의 선진화에 스스로 투자를 해야 할 시기에 와 있다.

Since COVID-19, the world's food shortage population has more than doubled from 130 million to 270 million. In addition, as various issues related to the food industry such as climate change arise, the importance of agriculture and livestock is increasing. In particular, it is still difficult to utilize data generated in these field. Therefore, the objective of this study was to explain the limitations of using data based on fragmentary analysis and the necessity of Digital Twin. The additional objective was to propose an architecture and necessary technologies of a Digital Twin platform suitable for agricultural and livestock. It also proposed a Digital Twin-based service that could be used in the near future, such as labor reduction, productivity improvement, personalized consumption, transportation, and distribution by incorporating intelligent information convergence technology into facility horticulture and livestock farming.

In this report, a total domestic demand for major commercial fertilizer for crop production in Korea up to 1996 was estimated. The agricultural products and area for demand for both 1982 and 1986 was quoted from the estimate of the 5th Five-year Economic plan. And the demands estimated for 1991 and 1996 reflected possible changes of diet from cereal to meat and their indirect effects on the increase of cereal consumption. As the advanced countries followed, consequently, the demands for soybean, corn and other feed grains were expected to be increased as well as the land for growing those crops. 1. Total annual demands for nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers were estimated 1,050,000M/T, 1,110,000M/T, 1,280,000M/T and 1,010,000M/T for the year 1982, 1986, 1991, and 1996 respectively. 2. It was assumed that there would be difficulties in self-sufficiency of grains at the cost of the maximum utilization of land and fertilizers in 1996. 3. It was clear that the increase of the productivity per unit area is possible by improving the conditions of arable land which could resulted a self-sufficiency of food in Korea. As a consequence, the demand for fertilizers at that time would exceed the level of estimates. 4. The recent decrease in demand for commercial fertilizers (currently estimated 850,000M/T) was due to an inadequate application of fertilizers for respective crop reqirement. This inadequacy should be checked and encouraged the consumptions of fertilizers to be increased by supporting the price of grain.

In Korea, the ever-increasing population has become a serious problem and the decreasing of cultivated lard area per person has become a major concern. Therefore, today we are implementing a green revolution using miracle varieties which require more fertilizer. The increased use of fertilizer along with development and adoption of high yielding varieties is the key to carrying out this green revolution. Fertilizer consumption in Korea is mainly influenced by agricultural techniques, fertilizer prices and government policies for increasing food production. If there are no special change, such as a cataclysm or an exhaustion of resources, it is quite clear that the fertilizer demand will increase to the near maximum ceiling point of optimum levels for crops in the year 2000. Fertilizer demand is not the amount of fertilizer that will be used by the farmer, but the actual optimum amount of plant nutrients required for maximum production. In this report, two alternative strategies are consideded in forecasting the future feitilizer demands. Alternative I is projected by reviewing consumption amounts over the last 10 years (1966~75) in Korea. The annual rate of increase in fertilizer consumption for the last 10 years was approximately 8.7% (table 1). Plant nutrient consumption rates in later years have been more balanced, and also fertilizer consumption per total acreage is considerably higher in Korea than in other countries (table 11), consequently the rate of increase in the future is expected to decline. Looking at the long term projections, the average annual rate of increase is expected to be 7% for 1976~80, 2.5% for 1981~90, 1.5% for 1991~2000. Thus, total projected fertilizer demands are estimated at 1,208,000M/T by 1980, 1,547,000M/T by 1990, 1,795,000M/T by 2000 (table 16). Alternative II is based on projected optimum fertilizer levels for crops and on increased crop acreage. The government recommended fertilizer rate has increased by a factor of 0.99 to 5.49 over the past twelve years depending on the specific crops (table 4). Levels of fertilizer demand recommended by government (table 7) in 1976 are still low compared with actual optimum fertilizer demands for crops (table 5). Therefore, future incaeases in fertilizer usage are anticipated. Thus, total projected fertilizer demands are estimated at 1,229,000M/T by 1980, 1,493,000M/T by 1990 and 1,898,000M/T by 2000(table 16).

This study aimed at analyzing the educational needs of home economics teachers for food literacy cultivation education in secondary school home economics. A total of 192 home economics teachers were surveyed about their perceptions of importance and performance of food literacy education content categories and elements, and their priorities were identified. Among the 38 content elements presented, home economics teachers recognized that the current performance level was significantly lower than that of the importance over 34 content elements. Based on the Borich educational needs assessment and the Locus for Focus Model, we identified five content elements with 'very high' educational needs ('food security/food sovereignty', 'reducing food-related waste', 'food waste management and recycling', 'food-related waste recycling', and 'country of origin information'), and four content elements with 'high' educational needs ('genetically modified food', 'ethical food consumption', 'food additives', and 'eco-friendly agricultural products'). These results indicate that dietary education in secondary school home economics should emphasize both the production and disposal of food. The findings of this study suggest implications for the needs for a new dietary education in secondary school home economics that allows students to learn all stages of food system. These results can also be used as a basis for dietary education for cultivating food literacy in secondary school home economics education.

This study uses geo-spatial crop modeling to quantify the biophysical impact of weather extremes. More specifically, the study analyzes the weather extreme which affected maize production in the USA in 2012; it also estimates the effect of a similar weather extreme in 2050, using future climate scenarios. The secondary impact of the weather extreme on food security in the developing world is also assessed using trend analysis. Many studies have reported on the significant reduction in maize production in the USA due to the extreme weather event (combined heat wave and drought) that occurred in 2012. However, most of these studies focused on yield and did not assess the potential effect of weather extremes on food prices and security. The overall goal of this study was to use geo-spatial crop modeling and trend analysis to quantify the impact of weather extremes on both yield and, followed food security in the developing world. We used historical weather data for severe extreme events that have occurred in the USA. The data were obtained from the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). In addition we used five climate scenarios: the baseline climate which is typical of the late 20th century (2000s) and four future climate scenarios which involve a combination of two emission scenarios (A1B and B1) and two global circulation models (CSIRO-Mk3.0 and MIROC 3.2). DSSAT 4.5 was combined with GRASS GIS for geo-spatial crop modeling. Simulated maize grain yield across all affected regions in the USA indicates that average grain yield across the USA Corn Belt would decrease by 29% when the weather extremes occur using the baseline climate. If the weather extreme were to occur under the A1B emission scenario in the 2050s, average grain yields would decrease by 38% and 57%, under the CSIRO-Mk3.0 and MIROC 3.2 global climate models, respectively. The weather extremes that occurred in the USA in 2012 resulted in a sharp increase in the world maize price. In addition, it likely played a role in the reduction in world maize consumption and trade in 2012/13, compared to 2011/12. The most vulnerable countries to the weather extremes are poor countries with high maize import dependency ratios including those countries in the Caribbean, northern Africa and western Asia. Other vulnerable countries include low-income countries with low import dependency ratios but which cannot afford highly-priced maize. The study also highlighted the pathways through which a weather extreme would affect food security, were it to occur in 2050 under climate change. Some of the policies which could help vulnerable countries counter the negative effects of weather extremes consist of social protection and safety net programs. Medium- to long-term adaptation strategies include increasing world food reserves to a level where they can be used to cover the production losses brought by weather extremes.

Several domestically consumed sweetpotato derivatives, such as sweetpotato starch for processing raw materials, frozen and refrigerated paste, and powder are dependent on imports. This study was conducted to examine the suitability of sweetpotato cultivars of twelve varieties (powdery-type and viscous type) cultivated in paddy fields, for use in starch, chips, dried products, and beverages. The two-year average yield results of the four cultivars suitable for starch (in order of highest to lowest yield) was as follows: Gogeonmi (4,018 kg/10a); Daeyumi (3,615 kg/10a); Jinhongmi (3,426 kg/10a); Singeonmi (2,837 kg/10a). The starch content was 20.2%, 18.2%, 21.2%, and 20.6% in Daeyumi, Gogeonmi, Singeonmi, and Jinghongmi, respectively. The total amount of starch was higher in Daeyumi (730 kg/10a) and Gogeonmi (731 kg/10a) than that in Singeonmi and Jinghongmi. The yield of Pungwonmi and Shinjami were 4,443 and 3,602 kg/10a, respectively. Powdery-type sweetpotatoes (Daeyumi and Gogeonmi) showed the low decay rates of all cultivars (0.8 and 0%, respectively). The yield of the storage root formation and storage root swelling stages by water-logging treatment decreased by 16.5% and 15.4% for Pungwonmi, and by 17.2% and 10.0% for Shinjami. Drainage management of paddy fields is necessary to reduce the damage caused by water-logging. Our results suggest that cultivation of sweetpotato varieties suitable for processing raw materials in paddy fields will enable stable yields of sweetpotato with a high starch content.

The changes in the dietary pattern of Koreans during the last one century and its consequences are summarized as follows; 1. Until the beginning of 20th century, Koreans used variety of cereals, vegetables and fruits for their staple food, but the variety has been largely reduced by the agricultural development and urbanized life style. 2. The well balanced traditional dietary pattern of Korean had been deeply deteriorated by the food shortage during the Japanese occupation and Korean war. 3. The deteriorated nutritional condition of Korean was not remedied by the restoration of traditional dietary pattern, but attempted to overcome it by the adoption of Western food habit. 4. The people were trained to eat milk and flour-meals during the starvation of Korean war, and it was continued after Korean war through the animal husbandry promotion policy. 5. The importation of food and feed cereals has been increased rapidly during the economic growth in 1970's and the food self-sufficiency droped below 50%. 6. In 1970's, the food supply pattern of Korean was restored to the level of early 1900, but the consumption of lipid increased extraordinarily. 7. The overconsumption of animal food and lipid continues in 1980's, and it coincides with the rapid increase in the occurence of food related degenerative deseases. 8. The establishment of Korean dietary goal which is based on the traditional dietary pattern is needed.

Growth and seed productivity of black soybean (cv. Cheongja-3ho) sown on four different dates were investigated in paddy fields in the southern region to cope with climate change, trends in consumption of soy foods, and the spread of double cropping region. Sowing date of black soybean showed a significant correlation with above-ground growth, seed yield, useful components, etc. When sown in May, the above-ground part was plentiful, while seed yield significantly decreased. On the other hand, when sown in June and July, reproductive growth was vigorous resulting in high seed yield, exceeding 200 kg/10a, and pod injury and seed coat cracking were reduced. Furtherm ore, the isoflavone content of seed increased significantly as the sowing date was delayed. These results suggests that sowing from early June to early July is appropriate. Nevertheless, late June sowing oppears the m ost appropriate for black soybeans in the southern paddy fields, in order to avoid a risk of overlapping with sowing dates of winter crops in the double cropping.

곰취는 주로 쌈용, 장아찌, 나물용 등으로 이용되고 있으며 주로 자생 곰취의 일종인 '곤달비' 라고 하는 종이 많이 재배되고 있다. 일반 곰취에 비해 곤달비는 향이 진하지 않고 씁쓸한 맛이 적어 인기가 많은 종이다. 또한 농가에서는 엽수가 많아 수량이 높기 때문에 재배를 선호하게 된 종이기도 하다. 그러나 곤달비는 수확후 여름을 지나면서 고온건조기에 흰가루병과 식물체가 위축되는 로젯현상으로 잎이 작고 진록색으로 되거나 고사하여 다음해의 수량을 저하시키는 원인이 되고 있다. 이렇게 2~3년 재배를 하면 연작장애와 더불어 결주가 생기기 시작하고 수량이 급격히 감소하는 문제가 발생되는 실정이다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 흰가루병에 저항성이면서 세력이 우수한 한대리곰취와 일반곰취를 교배하여 흰가루병에 강하고 수량성이 뛰어난 계통을 선발하여 그 동안 '쌈마니', '다목이', '곰마니', '수마니', '그린베어' 등 5품종을 육성한 바 있다. 이번에는 용도 다양화를 위하여 잎이 매우 커서 김밥처럼 곰취 밥말 이용을 선발하여 품종을 만들고자 하였다. '대마니' 품종은 2007년 7월에서 9월까지 인공교배를 하여 종자를 얻었으며 2008년 3월에 파종하여 육묘후 포장에 정식하여 생육관리를 하였다. 2013년 생육 및 수량특성 조사에서 일반적으로 많이 재배되는 '곤달비' 종보다 우수한 7033-1번 개체를 선발하였다. 선발된 7033-1번 개체는 2014년부터 2020년까지 노지포장에서 증식되면서 고농G-7호로 계통화 되었으며 2019년부터 2년간의 생육특성 검정을 통하여 최종 선발하였다. 그리고 2020년 농작물직무육성 품종선정위원회에서 신품종으로 선정되어 '대마니(Daemani)'로 명명되었다. '대마니' 품종의 특성은 엽병귀의 색이 연녹색을 띠고 엽병에 털이 있으며 잎 뒷면에 털은 없으나 광택이 없고. 엽맥밀도는 보통이다. 쌈용, 데침쌈용, 묵나물용으로 이용이 가능하다. 특히 엽장과 엽폭이 39cm와 49cm로 '잎이 커서 밥말이용으로 적당하다. 주당 엽수는 54개로 '쌈마니' 품종보다 매우 적다. 주당 수량은 4,961g 으로 '쌈마니' 1,362g 보다 3배 정도 많았다. 추대시는 8월 28일, 개화시는 9월 16일로 '쌈마니' 품종보다 약 6일 정도 늦었다. 흰가루병 저항성 정도는 '쌈마니' 품종의 중도 저항성에 비하여 전혀 병에 감염되지 않는 강한 저항성을 보였다. 이와 같은 특성의 흰가루병 저항성 품종이고 잎이 큰 '대마니' 품종이 농가에 보급되어 출하된다면 밥말이용 등 용도다양화를 통한 새로운 소비창출이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
