앞으로 글로벌 시장에 진입할 수 있는 작물보호 신물질 개발을 위해서는 기술 난이도가 크면서 파급성 및 경제성을 갖는 친환경 신규작용점 탐색과 독창적 Scaffold를 갖는 후보물질 또는 천연물소재 발굴에 주력해야 하며, 이를 지원하는 HTS, 화합물은행 및 천연물은행 활용 분자설계 및 최적화 합성기술 등 후보물질 발굴 핵심 기술개발에 국가적인 지원이 지속적이고 장기간에 걸쳐 이루어져야 한다. 고품질의 식량생산 관리기술은 물론 석유대체 에너지 확보를 위한 농작물 바이오매스(작물, 사료, 바이오연료 등) 생산관리기술로서, 그린바이오기반(Target 효소, 천연물소 재탐색응용) 저탄소 녹색성장을 실현시키기 위한 친환경적인 생화학 작물보호제 개발이 필요하다. 또한 인구 증가와 유가상승 등 전 세계적인 경제위기 극복과 이산화탄소 증가에 따른 온난화 등 지구환경보존의 중요성이 크게 증가되면서 안전한 먹거리 생산과 환경오염을 최소화하는 지속적 생산체제를 갖추기 위하여 LOHAS (Lifestyle Of Health And Sustainability) 트랜드가 최근 농업의 화두로 떠오르고 있다. 이를 만족시키기 위하여 OECD를 중심으로 하는 선진 국가들은 기존 작물보호제의 사용을 5년 이내에 현재 사용량의 절반 이하로 감소시키고자 하고 있는데, 특히 지속적 재배와 국민건강 보호를 위한 LOHAS 농작물의 생산이 매년 50-100억불로 성장하고 있다. 이러한 추세는 2017년까지 그 성장세가 계속 지속될 것으로 예상되고 있어 미생물/생화학 중심의 바이오작물보호제의 개발은 LOHAS 트랜드를 충족시킬 수 있는 유력한 수단으로 인식되고 있다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of care workers' employment characteristics and perception of facility directors' transformational leadership on quality of service through a hierarchical linear model. For this aim, survey data were collected amongst 240 older adults and 200 care workers who are affiliated within 45 long-term care facilities in Seoul, and analyzed using SPSS 26.0 and HLM 8.0. As a result, one's perception of transformational leadership had a positive effect, whereas, among employment characteristics, employment type and working hours had negative effects on quality of service. Regular workers with fewer working hours and higher awareness of transformational leadership toward the director provided higher quality of service. But wage, total experience and tenure didn't meaningfully affect it. Therefore, the following suggestions were presented. First, it is necessary to reorganize incentive, salary systems and budgets, changing the status of temporary workers' hourly wage system into that of regular workers' monthly one in order to strengthen employment security with acknowledging fundamental professional values through reinforcement of expertise. Reinforcement of long-term care's publicness and establishment of base facilities are also suggested. Second, maintaining appropriate hours of work and rest including annual leave under the Labor Standards Act is needed. Also, increasing the salary of and decreasing working hours for night shift workers are required. Third, education and intervention for inspiring transformational leadership of directors and strengthening qualification standards of them are required.

The purpose of this research is to analyze care types in long-term care facilities with the view of Active Ageing by using Q-methodology. In-depth interviews were conducted to grasp various thoughts on care of long-term care facilities in three areas of WHO's active aging: health, safety, and participation. 35 people participated in the interview, including the elderly living in long-term care facilities, adult children of the elderly living in long-term care facilities, the elderly living in the community, service providers, and long-term care professionals. Of the 451 Q populations, 63 Q samples were extracted, and a total of 43 P samples were used for final data analysis. Data were analyzed using the QUANL program, and as a result, three factor structures (4 types) were found to be suitable and accounted for 30.15% of the total variance. Current care types in long-term care facilities were analysed into 4 types: protection-oriented care (type 1), participation-oriented care (type 2), medical-connected care (type 3), and human-centered care (type 4). Based on the results of this study, institutional and practical suggestions and implications were presented for the qualitative change of care in long-term care facilities.

Through inductive content analysis, this study sought to examine the crisis experienced by the institution, the quality of service, and the distrust of the system and institution based on the experience of distrust in the home-visiting care service of bbeneficiary and guardians. FGI was conducted on five managers of institutions that provide home-visiting care services. As a result, the central phenomenon was found: deterioration of service quality, distrust of systems and institutions, and difficulties in opera-ting long-term care institutions. In order to improve the quality of home-visited care services and build trust in care workers and institutions, first, home-based associations or operating corporations should develop new education program plans and manuals to strengthen the capabilities of care workers and social workers. Second, the NHIS's monitoring system and the professional management system of care workers should be established. Third, it is necessary to improve awareness of the role, expertise, and rights of care workers, and fourth, improvement measures are required to reduce the turnover rate of care workers, which is the cause of the deterioration of the quality of long-term care services.

The purpose of this study was to understand meaning of a meal among Nursing home elderly and staff. The meaning of a mean was explained to participants through observation and in-depth interviews based on Ethnomethodologic method. The meaning of a meal expressed by the Elderly was applied as personal philosophy on diversity and Caregiver also had become a management work on convenient logic. Elderly has been recognized has as hope of health recovery in important elements such as the air life indispensable to life. In contrast, Caregiver was following their will to live formally without any sense of the meaning of life. they are just extending their life. Meaning of Nursing-home elderly was lighthearted. They eat salt with snack to have massive power and escape from the daily life. However, Caregivers have other control measure. From the above result, In the standard operation of the meal, the manual of the laws of the instructions regarding long-term care insurance for the Aged, must reflect the elderly continued proposed the need to have diversity for the education about understanding and acceptance of the elderly.

Payments for Environmental (or Ecosystem) Services (PES) are emerging as new conservation policy tools. The basic concept underlying PES is that users pay to providers of environmental services for ensuring the continual provision of services based on the voluntary contracts. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concepts and types of PES and to design a pilot PES scheme for biodiversity/ecosystem conservation on Genetic Reserve Forest in Korea. Genetic Reserve Forest is one of the protected areas designated in Korea to maintain forest biodiversity. PES is designed for the pine forests only in Genetic Reserve Forest, which corresponds to 943 ha. Service providers are to manage their forests based on the contracts in ways that maintain and enhance forest biodiversity and receive the payments in return. The payments are calculated as the sum of management, monitoring, and opportunity costs, resulting 1,140,378 won/year/ha (it corresponds to approximately $1,227 based on the 2007 average exchange rate 1$ = 929.2 won). Because PES are relatively new policies, however, more work needs to be done. Future work includes researches on the correlation between forest biodiversity and management practices and the economic evaluation of forest biodiversity. In addition, enhancing awareness on PES and education of stakeholders are warranted to further develop the scheme.
