This study was conducted to evaluate the changes in barley yield some physico-chemical properties of soils affected by annual application of N.P.K and N.P.K+silicate fertilizer 250kg/10a and N.P.K+compost 1,000kg/10a to the silty clay loam upland soil during the 18 years from 1975 to 1992. The results obtained are as follows. 1. Barley yield of the 18th year increased by 17~18% in the treatments of N.P.K+compost annually applied in comparison with N.P.K treated plot. So, simillar effect was recognized between the silicate fertilizer and the compost treatment plot. 2. The amount of nutrient's uptake by barley plant at the harvesting stage in the treats of N.P.K+silicate fertilizer and N.P.K+compost annually applied increased by 6~8% in comparison with N.P.K treated plot. Fertilizer's efficiency remarkably increased with $P_2O_5$, and $K_2O$ in the treats of N.P.K+silicate fertilizer and N.P.K+compost annualy applied comparing to N.P.K treated Plot. 3. According to soil analysis after experiment, the N.P.K+silicate fertilizer and N.P.K+compost annually applied plot were increased in soil pH, OM, available $P_2O_5$ exchangable cations and soluble $SiO_2$ content, but the content of $NO_3$-N was low. 4. Average yield of barley for 18 years increased by 22% in the treat of N.P.K+silicate fertilizer 250kg/10a annually applied plot and by 31% in the treat of N.P.K+compost 1,000kg/10a annually applied plot in comparison with N.P.K treated plot.

This study was performed to produce basic data for developing prediction techniques of desalinization through analyzing soil properties of reclaimed tidal lands, using soil samples collected in 11 units of tidal land reclamation projects. The average apparent specific gravity (bulk density), real specific gravity (particle density), porosity, and saturation percentage were measured to be 1.33, 2.64, 49.6%, and 56.3%, respectively. It was estimated that the soil texture class of reclaimed tidal lands would be silt or silt loam. The electrical conductivity and exchangeable sodium percentage were estimated to be $20{\sim}40dS\;m^{-1}$ and 30~50% in the beginning of tidal land reclamation, and the value of pH was measured to be 6.5~7.9. In conclusion, the soil properties of reclaimed tidal lands could be descrived to be saline-sodic soils with the high electrical conductivity and exchangeable sodium percentage.

Effect of gamma irradiation on the microbiological and physicochemical characteristics of vacuum-packaged sugar-treated corns was examined to improve taste and shelf-life during storage at room or low temperature. When the vacuum-packaged sugar-treated corns were stored at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 months, total counts and yeast and molds in the control increased approximately 2.4 and 3.5 log CFU/g, respectively but complete inactivation was observed for irradiated corns at 3 and 5 kGy. Similar results were observed at $15^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$ storage. There were no significant differences in hardness between irradiated sugar-treated waxy corns and control group before storage, but the hardness in control significantly increased during the storage, compared to those of irradiated corns. Also, changes in sugar content were not significant between the irradiated sugar-treated waxy corns and control during storage. Sensory evaluation for steamed-waxy corns showed that total sensory scores were higher in irradiated corns than in control, which were increased with irradiation doses. It was considered that maintaining good quality and increasing shelf-life of irradiated vacuum-packaged sugar treated corns could be possible at $15^{\circ}C$ storage for long-term period.

The washed fresh ginsengs packed with air, vaccum and nitrogen gas were irradiated at the levels of 1,2 and 3kGy gamma radiation and then stored at $4{\sim}5^{\circ}C$ for 90days to investigate the effects of gamma radiation on microbial inactivation, eelworm disinfestation and physicochemical changes. After a 90 day storage, $2{\sim}3kGy$ irradiated groups showed 20% of weight loss and 10% of rot while non-irradiated group 100% and 20% or more, respectively. Also the irradiated groups showed somewhat lower values of specific gravity, color density and hardness immediately after irradiation, thereafter higher value of them with storage time than those of non-irradiated group. The irradiation increased the yields of ginseng extract and crude saponins but no effects on the proximate composition and TLC and HPLC patterns of saponin. The food-borne microorganisms decreased in viable cell counts by $2{\sim}3$ log cycles with $2{\sim}3kGy$ radiation and the eelworms were completely disinfested with 1 kGy radiation.

The aging degree of Kimchi fermented at $4^{\circ}C$ for 29 days was evaluated by the correlation between the flavor and the acidity analysis. The Kimchi fermentation induced a gradual reduction in pH and an increase in acidity from $0.26\%$ (initial) to $1.15\%$ (29th day). Flavor pattern of the fermented Kimchi was obtained by the electronic nose system with 12 metal oxide sensors. Electronic nose analysis could differentiate the flavor profiles of Kimchi according to the fermentation periods, making 5 group in the principal component analysis (PCA) plot Therefore, aging degree of Kimchi could be differentiated by flavor patterns analysed by electronic nose.

Analysis of fish farm influences on stream water quality may provide basic informations on watershed management to reduce environmental impact due to fish farm development and to conserve stream water quality in forested watershed area. In this research stream water qualities around Mt. Baegun area were monitored seasonally for three years. Due to the increase of pH in effluent water from the fish farm it was believed that alkalization of stream water can be accelerated by large scale development of fish farms in the forested watershed area. As a result of regression analyses, the linear equation of pH of influent and effluent water of fish farm was, pH of effluent water of fish farm = $0.6234{\times}pH$ of influent water of fish farm + 2.6263. Also, the linear equation of electrical conductivity of influent and effluent water of fish farm was electrical conductivity of effluent water of fish farm = $1.7275{\times}$electrical conductivity of influent water of fish farm - 14.007. Negative effects on stream water quality were observed by indications of increase in electrical conductivity and water temperature of effluent water from the fish farm. Decreases in physicochemical indices such as the amount of dissolved oxygen, total amount of cation and total amount of anion in effluent water from the fish farm were also negative aspects in downstream ecology. It is recommended that water purification system as well as environmentally-friendly fish farm design should be incorporated to large scale fish farm development plan in forested watershed area.

The changes in water uptake rate, cooking properties, color of rice grains and gelatinization properties of brown and milled rices during storage were studied. The brown and milled rices were stored at $4^{\circ}$ and $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 and 3 months, respectively. The water uptake rate constants of rices during hydration at $30^{\circ}$ were linearly decreased during storage. The volume increase rate also showed similar trend to the water uptake rate. The terminal point of cooking of milled rice at $100^{\circ}$ in a sealed brass vessel was about a half of that of brown rice. The cooking rate of milled rice was 1.8 times faster than that of brown rice. The cooking rate constant of both brown and milled rices linearly decreased with the increase of storage time. The L(lightness) value increased for brown rice grain and remained unchanged for milled rice grain during storage. The peak viscosity of rice flours by amylograph increased during storage, but enthalpy for gelatinization decreased, as measured by differential scanning calorimetry.
