This study was carried out to survey basic information of swine farms on the machine holdings. facility type. management of manure by farm scale and operation, and then to develop the mechanization model. Manual feeding was common for sows and nursing sows. but automation feeding was normally furnished for weaners. growing pigs and castrated male pigs. Water supplies was completely automated for all of the surveyed swine farms. Fully mechanized and automated system would not be feasible and affordable for the small scale farms breeding less than 500 heads. Because the environmental control for the nursing sows and weaner was important, some swine houses were constructed with the windowless type. However, the furnished rates ranged from 22.2% to 44.4% of the surveyed nursing sow and weaner houses at the farm scales. In the future, a computerized ventilation system would be commended for the efficient use of heat energy and to maintain the desirable temperature of swine buildings. Over-investment for large scale farm and over-crowded pigpen of small farm would cause wasting construction expenses and spreading epidermic diseases Hence, the size of swine building should follow the recommended scale. The fermentation drier was recommended for the manure management. Urine could be recycled or discharged after treating by the activated sludge process.

Social enterprises that are solving pressing global issues and providing services such as micro-finance, affordable housing, appropriate technology and education for the 'bottom of the pyramid' as well as cultural and community-related businesses that improve the 'quality of life' within a society are the target of impact investments. Among them, a capital financing is one of the most important factor in founding and fostering of social enterprise. However, the capital market for social enterprises in South Korea are not yet sufficiently developed. The Britain and U.S.A. attempted to solve the social problem by the introduction of the social innovation credit model, for example, social impact bonds(SIB), Big Society Capital, DBLIF, and ACCION International, which are considered as an innovative new financing instrument for social program. Instruments are being attempted for the first time in Britain and America. This study have two purposes. The first purpose is abstracting the institutional mechanism for introduction of impact investment such as SIB and DBLIF case in Britain and U.S.A.. Second, analyzing type and mix of policy instrument on impact investment from the perspective of policy instrument.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the development progress of Pacific Park (formerly Atlantic Yard) in Brooklyn, New York City. Along with the Hudson Yards Development in Manhattan, Pacific Park is one of New York City's leading large-scale urban development projects using space right above an existing railway and has attracted worldwide attention. With the resurgence of large-scale development, its advanced form has received social attention. In particular, the development was evaluated as an exemplary development using the Community Benefits Agreement, which benefits local residents. Unfortunately, due to various difficulties, the development has been struggling from delays and changes away from the early stages, which have also caused social concerns and criticism. In this regard, this study examines the development through the process and the public sector's responses to the risk-inducing factors and reactions. The theoretical background of the US urban redevelopment is examined, and the specific changes and major contents of the project are analyzed. The following implications were drawn based on changes and responses in the development process: 1) securing the flexibility and mandatoryness of developers, 2) comprehensive control of the development site, 3) communication with and responding to the public, 4) securing additional financial resources, and 5) verification of new technologies.

This study aims to estimate the payment of farmland reverse mortgage(FRM) and to explore policy considerations about the restructuring of rural area after the initiation of farmland reverse mortgage. Farmland reverse mortgage provides stable monthly income basement for the welfare of rural elderly by liquidating fixed asset such as farmlands which the elderly in rural area owns. The main results of this study can be summarized as follows. First, FRM model based on Housing Equity Conversion Model, which is suggested by Rodda et al (2003), was built. Then, critical factors like farmland value rising rates and interest rates were elaborated, and affordable and proper monthly payment were estimated. 246,982 won, 419,374 won and 757,379 won is given to the borrower at age 65, 75 and 85 respectively with 100,000,000 won value farmland. Second, policy considerations which are necessary for the successful launch of FRM, and restructuring of rural area after launching FRM were discussed. Three policy considerations were proposed. First is about the integrated asset management system for rural elderly people. Second is about the reasonable settlement of corporate farmers system. And third is about the preparations for rural land use planning.
