  • This study attempted to understand the perception and the degree of trust that consumers had in the national agricultural food accreditation system, to inquire into and examine the consumers' perception of traditional food quality certification performed for the protection of excellent traditional food, and to propose the right direction for the policies on the traditional food quality certification system and the plans to improve consumers' perception of the system. According to the results of this survey performed in married women, based on the 'the recognition of accreditation system' and 'the recognition of certification marks' of 'the seventh national agricultural food accreditation system' presently being used by the Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, the household food purchasers showed high recognition for eco-friendly agricultural product accreditation, processed food KS certification, and organically processed food certification in that order. Meanwhile, it was shown that they indicated low recognition for the traditional food-related accreditation systems such as 'traditional food quality certification' and 'food grand master'. It was found that reliability of the certification mark provided by the agricultural food accreditation system gained 3.54 points (on a 5-point scale), and 68.1% of the study subjects referred to the certification marks while purchasing agricultural foods. And most of them answered to the question of 'why they referred to the certification marks' saying that it was done 'to choose safe food'. The most frequent answer to question of 'the means to recognize the traditional food quality certification system' was 'broadcasting, advertising'. 57.3% of the subjects had a previous experience of buying a product certified by the traditional food quality certification system, and 93.2% of all the subjects had the intention to buy a product certified by the traditional food quality certification system later. And most of them answered that 'strengthening government policies' would be the most ideal way to inform the public of the traditional food quality certification system. According to the results of this study, while 'relying on the traditional food quality certification system in general' was relatively high among the consumers, 'intention to buy quality certified products by visiting a distantly located store' was low; thus, from this analysis, it can be seen that there is a need for diversification of places selling these quality certified products and to establish a distribution network for these products.

  • The last few nears have seen significantly increased interest in organic food. Organic food is still a small but growing part of the food industry with an identity defined and protected by law. Its existence provides an element of consumer choice. To obtain consumer confidence and, product credibility and transparency in the organic market, organic legislation and certification is needed, To facilitate export of organic products, harmonization of the organic legislation is favoured. The IFOAM accreditation programme has already achieved very much in this respect. Several national regulation, such as the NOP(USA) and EC2092/91(European Union) have already complied with the IFOAM basic standards. But in many countries there is still a lack of national legislation on organic agriculture. Because of the fast globalisation, organic agriculture is facing major challenges for international trade, so it is very important to consider the future development and certification of organic produce in all countries.

  • The aim of this study was to compare the physicochemical changes of hot-boned chicken breast and leg muscles. Chicken breast and leg muscles from 56 broilers were excised within a 15 min post-mortem (PM) and stored at $20^{\circ}C$. Physicochemical traits were determined at 0.5, 6, 12, and 24 h PM. The ultimate pH of leg muscle was higher than that of breast muscle (p<0.05). The content of glycogen in the breast muscle was relatively higher than that in the leg muscle until 6 h PM (p<0.05). R-values showing rigor mortis of breast and leg muscles were completed after or before 6 h PM. Breast muscle had less cooking loss than leg muscle (p<0.05). Drip loss did not significantly differ between breast and leg muscles with the exception of that at 6 h PM. The sarcomere length of leg muscle was relatively longer than that of breast muscle (p<0.05). The MFI of leg muscle was significantly lower than that of breast muscle (p<0.05). The shear force of leg muscle was lower than that of breast muscle at 6 and 12 h PM (p<0.05); however, that of both muscles did not significantly differ at 24 h PM.

  • Objective: The objective of this study is to analyze standards of ISO 9001, ISO 14001, KOSHA 18001, GAP and ISO 22000 to make an integrated system and check whether an integrated system can be used at small size companies. Background: There are many certification criteria for quality, safety and health such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, KOSHA 18001, GAP and ISO 22000. However, these criteria are difficult and complicated to be used at a small size company. Thus. it is not easy for small size companies to obtain certifications using these criteria. But customers and workers of small size companies want the key points of these systems to be implemented. Method: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, KOSHA 18001, GAP and ISO 22000 were analyzed to find the commonality and duplications as well as the importance of the items in these standards. And a survey was conducted to check whether certain aspects of the anticipated integrated system can be implemented at small size companies. Results: Items were classified into categories based upon the importance to food safety, quality, safety, environment, and health. Items which are common among standards were also identified and thus give ideas to make the new standards simpler than the currently available standards. Items which were important but may not be easily implemented at the small size companies were also identified. Conclusion: By considering the fact that the currently used accreditation standards have many similar aspects, these systems can be integrated into one new system which small size companies can use relatively easily.

  • 우리나라에서 GAP인증제도가 시행된 지 10년이 지났고, 정부는 2022년까지 전체 재배면적의 25%까지 GAP인증을 취득토록 하겠다는 목표를 가지고 있다. 2017년말 기준으로 전체 재배면적의 6.3%, 전체 농가의 8.1%가 인증을 취득했는데 인증확대의 정도는 기대보다 느린 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 GAP인증 농가에 대한 설문조사와 현장점검을 통해 GAP인증의 확대가 더딘 원인을 규명하고 GAP인증의 확대를 위하여 현 제도의 문제점 분석에 따라 발전방안을 제시하고자 수행하였다. 인증농가는 농산물 안전과 위생에 대한 필요성은 인식하나 실제 현장실천방법에 대해서는 부적합 사항이 다수 존재하였다. 이는 인증기준의 모호성과 생산자에 대한 교육방법의 오류에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. GAP인증이 농가에 확대되는 속도가 느리고 소비자의 인지도가 낮은 이유는 GAP인증제도 운영의 구조적 문제로 생각되며, 이에 따른 개선방안이 필요하다. 국가주도형의 GAP인증제도를 국가주도형 민간인증제도로 전환을 할 필요가 있다. 국가는 정책, 연구 및 사후관리에 중점을 두고, 그 외 인증 및 교육, 홍보 등에 관한 실무는 출연기관 형태의 별도조직을 신설하여 담당케 할 필요가 있다. 국가는 GAP인증 확대를 위한 중장기적인 계획을 수립하여 체계적으로 수행할 필요가 있다. 우리나라의 영농 규모에 비해 지나치게 많은 인증기관은 지정기준을 강화하여 통폐합할 필요가 있으며, 인증기관의 재정 자립도와 올바른 인증업무 수행을 위하여 신청수수료를 현실화해야 한다. 또한 인증심사원의 자격기준을 강화하고 교육체계를 정비하여 양질의 심사원을 육성해야 한다. 법령 중심의 단순화된 인증기준은 실제 실천방안 중심으로 세분화할 필요가 있다. GAP인증제도의 발전적 개선을 위하여 산학관의 전문가로 구성된 위원회를 통해 밀도있는 토의가 필요하며 구체적인 발전방안을 도출하여 시행함으로써 안전안심농산물 생산을 통한 국민의 먹거리 안전성에 기여를 할 수 있을 것이다.
