Rural Amenity Design Competition is opened every year since 2003 having an intention of improving spatial design and planning of rural area through developing values of rural amenity resources and applying in that area. The subject of this competition is broad and there's no limit in locations so that various solutions and original ideas could be proposed. This research examined 165 prizewinning works of the competition and analyzed the locations and areas, aims, main resources, spatial planning contents and experience programs to find out trends of rural spatial design. According to the study, the prizewinning works tends to 1) include spatial plan for an existing village planning, 2) aim rural tourism for citizens and increasement of resident's incomes, 3) develop vegetation and agricultural resources, 4) plan for natural landscape, commercialization of local special productions and agriculture, and 5) propose ecological experience programs. The same theme of the competition repeated every year had led to advanced design skills but also a stagnant of design contents. A subject and a main goal of the Rural Amenity Design Competition should be departmentalized each time hereafter to make for the weak points and propose progressive direction for the rural spatial design.

With increasing applications of technologies developed in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, data have come to replace important knowledge and experience in the agricultural field. Although data-based smart agriculture is growing at an average annual rate of 8.57%, research on ways to utilize data produced alongside is remains insufficient. Because such data may considerably help stakeholders involved in agricultural activities, we deployed the prosumer concept to revitalize agricultural data. We systematically structured and defined three relevant entities: the prosumer, which produces and consumes agricultural data; the database, which systematically processes and integrates agricultural data; and the consumer, which utilizes agricultural data in various ways. Our framework is designed to help stakeholders use agricultural data to improve the quality of crops, minimize the failure of agricultural activities, quickly adapt to new environments and methods of crop production, and find effective solutions to relevant issues.

This study segmented the market of senior rural tourists and analyzed their characteristics. A two-stage cluster analysis was used to analyze the types of senior rural tourists, and the difference in general characteristics and behavioral intention by segmented market was identified. In this study, data from the fact-finding survey on rural tourism 2022 were used, and 487 cases of senior with rural tourism experience in the past year were used for analysis. A total of three types of senior rural tourists were derived based on the motivation for rural tourism, annual expenditure for rural tourism, experience living in rural areas, and relationship with rural area. The segmentation market of senior rural tourists was found to be 'rural attachment type', 'rural curiosity type', and 'rural indifference type'. The results of this study suggest that the general characteristics and behavioral intentions of senior rural tourists differ according to the segment. The results of this study will be useful information in establishing effective marketing strategies targeting senior rural tourists.

This paper verifies the effect of the personal dietary habits on students' school lunch satisfaction and the effect of food related activities such as rural communities' experience and safe and nutrition education. Personal dietary habits (5-Likert scale), satisfaction of school lunch (5-Likert scale), and rural community experiences, are investigated. A survey from 10 middle schools in Gyeonggi-do was undertaken from September to October, 2014. Multi regression analysis and t -test are applied. This study applied factor analysis and derived three latent variables in order to know the latent variables of eating habits. Students with rural communities' experience are satisfied with school lunches more than those who have not experienced it. Further related education (such as eating habits, safe and organic food) have a positive effect on students' school lunch satisfaction. Appreciation for school lunch (p<.001) and eating breakfast (p<.01) are significant among the independent variables that included three latent variables, the taste of school lunch (p<.001), eating well all kinds of food (p <.001). The results shows that students with a balanced diet are more satisfied with school lunches. Personal eating habits and understanding food and agriculture are important factors to improve students' satisfaction about school lunch on top of the quality of food and facilities. Students with rural community experience show improved satisfaction and this experience can be a good way for students to understand food. Food related education (including farming) are recommended to raise student school lunch satisfaction.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships among recognition, preference, and purchasing characteristics for Changnyeong onions and garlic as well as festival satisfaction among participants at agricultural product festivals in the Changnyeong region. Results showed that festival satisfaction of 'place of festival' was highest while 'convenience facility & event contents' earned the lowest scores. Most subjects (90.5%) had purchased Changnyeong agricultural and processed products. A major purchasing type was fresh agricultural products (66.7%). The pathways to recognize Changnyeong agricultural products were mostly 'promotion by related institutions' (22.0%), 'family relatives' (20.8%), 'mass media' (16.6%), and 'festivals and events' (16.1%). The most considered factors for purchasing regional products were 'geographical origin' and 'ingredients'. Changnyeong onion showed higher scores for recognition and preference and rate of purchase experience and intention than for garlic. The correlation coefficients of recognition and preference for onion and galic were 0.603 (p<0.001) and 0.598 (p<0.001), respectively. The explanation power ($R^2$) of related variables for purchase of Changnyeong onions was 0.258. The regression coefficients (${\beta}$) for 'recognition', 'preference' and 'convenient facility & event contents' were positive, whereas the regression coefficient for 'price' was negative. Recognition, preference, and convenient facility & event contents with garlic purchase showed a positive relationship ($R^2$=0.253). The most effective promotion method to increase sales of Changnyeong agricultural products was 'local festivals and events' (27.8%).
