The main goal of this paper is to assess application of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) remote sensing and GIS based images in detection and measuring of rice field drought area in South Korea. Drought is recurring feature of the climatic events, which often hit South Korea, bringing significant water shortages, local economic losses and adverse social consequences. This paper describes the assesment of the near-realtime drought damage monitoring and reporting system for the agricultural drought region. The system is being developed using drought-related vegetation characteristics, which are derived from UAV remote sensing data. The study area is $3.07km^2$ of Wonbuk-myeon, Taean-gun, Chungnam in South Korea. UAV images were acquired three times from July 4 to October 29, 2015. Three images of the same test site have been analysed by object-based image classification technique. Drought damaged paddy rices reached $754,362m^2$, which is 47.1 %. The NongHyeop Agricultural Damage Insurance accepted agricultural land of 4.6 % ($34,932m^2$). For paddy rices by UAV investigation, the drought monitoring and crop productivity was effective in improving drought assessment method.

Fruit bagging is a traditional way to produce high-quality fruit and to prevent damage from insects and diseases. Growing pears by non-bagging is concerned about the damage from insect, it can be controlled by installing a insect net facility. Wind load should be considered to design the insect net facility because it has the risk of collapse due to the strong wind. So we carried out wind tunnel test for measurement of drag force, where the insect net with porosity about 65% is selected as an experimental subject. As a result of the test, drag force was measured to be 244.14 N when insect net area and wind speed are $1m^2$ and 22.7 m/s respectively. And, drag coefficients for the insect net were found to be about 0.55~0.57, which may be used as the preliminary data to design the insect net facilities at the orchard.

In order to set up structural improvement strategy against meteorological disasters of the shading structures in ginseng fields, structural safety analyses as well as some case studies of structural damage patterns were carried out. According to the results of structural safety analysis, allowable safe snow depth for type B(wood frame with single span) was 25.9 cm, and those for type A(wood frame with multi span) and type C and D (steel frame with multi span) were 17.6 cm, 25.8 cm, and 20.0 cm respectively. So types of shading structures should be selected according to the regional design snow depth. An experiential example study on meteorological disasters indicated that a strong wind damage was experienced once every 20 years, and a heavy snow damage once every 9.5 years. The most serious disasters were caused by heavy snow and it was found that a half break and complete collapse of structures were experienced by about 70% of snow damage. In addition to maintenance, repair and reinforcement, it is also recommended that improved model of shading structures for ginseng cultivation should be developed as a long term countermeasures against meteorological disasters.

Objectives: Oxidative stress and DNA damage have been proposed as mechanisms linking pesticide exposure to health effects such as cancer and neurological diseases. We investigated whether protective measures could significantly reduce the levels of biomarkers for oxidative stress and DNA damage in agricultural workers. Methods: In the present study, the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), biomarkers related to oxidative stress and DNA damage, respectively, were analyzed in urine samples collected from agricultural workers in two provinces of Korea (n=60). The influence of wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) and performing protective behaviors on the levels of these two biomarkers was also evaluated. Results: The median urinary levels of MDA and 8-OHdG were 10.45 nmol/mg creatinine and 14.42 ng/mg creatinine in subjects living in region A, while they were 6.25 nmol/mg creatinine and 24.77 ng/mg creatinine in subjects living in region B, respectively. The levels of MDA and 8-OHdG were higher in male farmers. Farmers wearing greater numbers of PPE and performing more protective behaviors had significantly lower levels of MDA. Greater numbers of protective behaviors was significantly associated with lower levels of 8-OHdG. Conclusion: The results of the present study indicate that pesticide exposure could induce oxidative stress and DNA damage in agricultural workers, and that protective measures are important for mitigating pesticide exposure.

본 연구는 홍수피해가 관련 산업부문의 자본을 감소시킬 경우 국가경제에 미치는 파급효과를 완전예측형 동태CGE모형을 이용하여 2010년을 기준연도로 분석하였다. 여러 홍수피해 항목들 중에서 통계자료가 확보될 수 있는 농경지, 선박, 공공시설의 물적 피해 항목에 분석을 한정하였다. 홍수피해의 시나리오는 1991년~2010년 기간 홍수피해를 2010년 기준으로 불 변화하여 항목별 홍수피해의 평균과 최대로 각각 채택하였다. 분석 결과, 산업별 생산의 경우에는 자본스톡이 직접적으로 감소하는 수산업+운송업의 생산 감소율이 가장 크고 다음으로 농임 업의 생산감소율이 큰 것으로 나타났다. GDP는 충격 기준연도에 벤치마크 해 대비로는 0.001%~0.057% 그리고 초기 자본감소 대비로는 약 11% 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 동태적으로는 GDP는 말기로 가정된 2030년까지 서서히 감소하는 것으로 분석되어서 홍수피해가 자본을 감소시킬 경우 국가경제에 미치는 영향력은 오래 지속되는 것으로 나타났다.

The objectives of this study were to study 1) emergence of pine bark beetles, 2) larval density in residual timber on Idlest land by each felling season, and 3) the secondary damage rates in the tended forest. Pine forest land which had undergone tending had a higher secondary damage ratio $(59.6\%)$ by pine bark beetles than forest land that was not tended $(2.8\%)$. The number of escape holes averaged 11.3 0.31 per $250 cm^2$ on the bark of leaf trees in the tended forest. The number of escape holes was higher in the Jinju site than in the Hamyang site. The larval habitat density of pine bark beetles as compared with each felling period was higher after mid-October than in forests tended early in October. Thus, forests should be tended before early October in order to prevent secondary damage from pine bark beetles. Secondary damage in the tended forest was higher in the upper part $(75.5\%)$ of the tree crown than in the lower part $(49.2\%)$. The damage was higher in terminal shoots $(80\%)$ than in lateral shoots $(48\%)$. Therefore, secondary damage by pine bark beetles can cause deterioration of the elongation growth of the forest trees. In conclusion, if by-products of tended pine forest forests are neglected, they will be utilized as a propagation site for pine bark beetles (Blastophagus piniperda L). The propagated adults will damage the tender shoots of the leaf trees and thus seriously limittheir elongation.

Alpha-lipoic acid (${\alpha}$-LA) is not only involved in energy metabolism, but is also a powerful antioxidant that can protect against hepatic oxidative stress induced by some drugs, toxins, or under various physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Here, we investigated the effect of ${\alpha}$-LA against liver oxidative damage in broilers exposed to aflatoxin $B_1$ ($AFB_1$). Birds were randomly divided into four groups and assigned different diets: basal diet, 300 mg/kg ${\alpha}$-LA supplementation in basal diet, diet containing 74 ${\mu}g/kg$ $AFB_1$, and 300 mg/kg ${\alpha}$-LA supplementation in diet containing 74 ${\mu}g/kg$ $AFB_1$, for 3 weeks. The results revealed that the addition of 300 mg/kg ${\alpha}$-LA protected against the liver function damage of broilers induced by chronic low dose of $AFB_1$ as estimated by a significant (p<0.05) change in levels of plasma total protein, albumin, alkaline phosphatase and the activities of liver glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase. The histopathological analysis also showed that liver tissues were injured in the $AFB_1$ diet, but this effect was alleviated by the addition of 300 mg/kg ${\alpha}$-LA. Additionally, $AFB_1$ induced a profound elevation of oxidative stress in birds, as indicated by an increase in malondialdehyde level, a decrease in glutathione peroxidase activity and a depletion of the glutathione content in the liver. All of these negative effects were inhibited by treatment with ${\alpha}$-LA. Our results suggest that the inhibition of $AFB_1$-induced excess production of lipid peroxides and the maintenance of intracellular antioxidant status may play important roles in the protective effects of ${\alpha}$-LA against $AFB_1$-induced oxidative damage in the liver.

백두산 화산 폭발 시 남한 지역은 동해안을 중심으로 화산재에 의한 피해가 예상된다. 적은 양의 화산재라고 할지라도 농작물의 피해나 토양의 산성화를 유발하는 등 농업 분야에 심각한 영향을 줄 수 있다. 이에 이 논문에서는 화산재에 의한 농작물의 피해를 추정하고 구글 지도를 통해 시각화하고자 한다. 이를 위해서 화산재에 대한 피해 예측모델이 필요하다. 화산재 위험은 농작물의 종류와 화산재 두께에 따라 다르므로 피해 예측 모델의 취약도 함수는 화산재 두께와 농작물의 손상률 간의 관계를 나타내어야 한다. 이 논문에서는 RiskScape에서 정의한 화산재 두께에 따른 농작물별 손상률을 이용하여 취약도 함수를 정의하였다. 이 취약도 함수를 농작물 생산량과 가격 정보에 적용하여 화산재 두께에 따른 농작물 피해액을 추정할 수 있다. 또한, 이 논문에서는 화산재의 피해가 예측되는 강원도 지역을 대상으로 화산재에 의한 농작물 피해를 추정하였다. 연구 결과 2010년 강원도 농업 총 생산량을 기준으로 했을 때 화산재가 약 4 mm 정도 쌓이게 되면 농작물 피해액은 약 6,351억 원에 달하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 강원도 총 농업생산액의 약 50%에 해당한다. 이 논문에서는 화산재에 의한 농작물의 1차적인 피해만을 고려하고 있다. 하지만 화산재는 토양 오염이나 시설물과 같은 농가의 자산에 잠재적인 위험을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 농업 분야 전체에 대한 총 피해 규모를 추정하기 위해서는 이와 같은 2차적인 피해도 함께 고려해야 할 것이다.
