This experiment was carried out in the field to investigate the effects of sowing date and planting density under non - or P. E. - mulching cultivation on growth and yield of safflower. The optimum sowing date for safflower in the central and northern area of Korea was March 20th directly after thawing of frozen soil. P. E. - mulching cultivation was profitable with increasing the kernel yield 20% higher than in non­mulching cultivation. With respect to the the planting density, non - mulching $50[{\times}10cm$(20.000plants per10are) and P. E. - mulching $50{\times}15cm$(13,330 plants per 10 are) were optimum respectively.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of early planting and polyethylene film (P.E) mulch on early maturing soybean of Korean native cultivar Kyeonggi No. 114 in the Kyeonggi area. It was planted four times at the ten days interval from April I to April 30 in 1985 and 1986. The average soil temperature was 1-5$^{\circ}C$ higher under the polyethylene film mulch condition than the conventional cultural practice condition. Soil moisture content also was higher under P.E mulch condition. Days to emergence was shortened 5-16 days and days to flowering was shortened 3-5 days. The fresh pod yield was increased 12% more at the planting date of April 1 and April 10. Income was increased 70, 83, more at the planting date of April 1 and April 10 under the polyethylene mm mulch conditions.

To evaluate the effect of companion plant (Phlox subulata and Glechoma hederacea var. longituba) on conservation of soil in slopped highland, coverage of crops and soil erosion were investigated with 3 different conditions. The coverage rate of Phlox subulata with Chinese cabbage cultivation was kept on approximately 100% from Chinese cabbage-transplanting to -harvest. The coverage rate of Glechoma hederacea var. longituba with Chinese cabbage cultivation was low at it's early stage, however, reached to approximately 100% at the time of Chinese cabbage harvest. In contrast, the coverage rate of Chinese cabbage cultivation without cover crop, and simultaneous transplanting with Chinese cabbage and cover crop were approximately 60%. Losses of soil and nitrate nitrogen were much lower in Phlox subulata with Chinese cabbage cultivation ($0.1{\sim}0.2ton\;ha^{-1}$, $0.2{\sim}0.4kg\;NO_3{^-}-N\;ha^{-1}$) than those in Chinese cabbage cultivation without cover crop ($20.8ton\;ha^{-1}$, $2.1kg\;NO_3{^-}-N\;ha^{-1}$), and simultaneous transplanting with Chinese cabbage and cover crop ($8.9{\sim}10.5ton\;ha^{-1}$, $1.5{\sim}2.2kg\;NO_3{^-}-N\;ha^{-1}$). Cover plants suppressed the weed occurrence up to about 70%. Live mulching with cover plants set a good effects on weed suppression and reduction of soil and nutrient loss. Therefore intercropping with Phlox subulata will make great contributions to soil conservation in Chinese cabbage cultivated highland.

This experiments were carried out determine planting date for highest Yields and select an covering material for enhancement of environments in Cassia tora L.The highest Yields by regressions estimate produced 352 kg/10a at May 18. of coure, it is possible to plant at June and early-July in spite of slight decreas of Yields, therefore Cassia tora L. is benefit to establish cropping system with barley, wheat or other crops. The covering materials for highest yielding was Black-white nonporous PE(low density) and it out yielded about 53% than conventional cultivations. Cassia tora L. is possible to produce Without agricultural medicines because of little occurence of decrease except occuring of Damping off(Rhizoctonia solanikuhn) at early planting.

Crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum), hairy vetch (Vicia villosa) and rye (Secale cereale) are common leguminous cover crops. Because they contain water-soluble allelopathic substances that show a variable level in tissue depending on growth stage of the plants, the weed inhibition effects are dependent on the growth stage of cover crops. This study investigated the allelopathic effects of crimson clover, hairy vetch and rye on soybean, radish, oilseed rape and lettuce seeds germination and seedling growth. We used extract that were prepared from the shoots of crimson clover, hairy vetch and rye at different growth stages, vegetative growth stage, flowering stage, and fruiting stage. Applications of aqueous extracts from three growth stage of cover crops strongly affected to oilseed rape and lettuce seeds germination but the treatment resulted in a slight inhibition of the germination in soybean and radish. Radical length was more sensitive to aqueous extracts than seed germination rate. Especially, three cover crops extracts at vegetative growth stage highly inhibited seedling root growth of oilseed rape and lettuce by over 80% and 90% respectively. Furthermore, the $GR_{50}$ values were lowest in the treatment of extracts from vegetative growth stage and the level of phenolics was decreased by the order of vegetative growth stage, flowering stage and fruiting stage.

This study was conducted to elucidate the effects of mulching materials on root growth characteristics and weed occurrence of Platycodon grandiflorum transplants (3 years old) in organic farming. After transplanting, roots were mulched with one of three mulching materials (biodegradable film, sawdust, or rice husks) or a control (no mulching). The average root diameter of all mulching groups was 28.1 mm, which was 5.1 mm thicker than the no-mulching treatment. Roots with the biodegradable film treatment were the thickest at 30.9 mm. Root length was the shortest, 22.0 cm, with rice husk mulching. The number of rootlets was the highest with film mulching (36.0 rootlets/root) and the lowest with no mulching. For root fresh weight, which directly affects yield, the average of treated and untreated roots was 100 and 56 g/root, respectively. The highest fresh weight was in the biodegradable film plot (130 g/root). The mulching treatment groups showed a weed inhibition effect compared with the no-mulching treatment. The dominant weeds with the no-mulching treatment were Setaria viridis and Digitaria ciliaris, and that with the mulching treatment was Setaria viridis. Average annual weed occurrence across all treatments was 72%. Weed occurrence was the highest with the no-mulching treatment ($125weeds/m^2$), and there were no weeds with the biodegradable film treatment.
