The purpose of the study was to identify the needs assessment for urban agricultural program. The findings were as follows; Citizens at urban cities said that educational program of 'shortage of farming technology education' should be developed, and wanted to be given 'farming technology' of urban agriculture education area more than other education areas. The citizens asked for urban agricultural program with both theories and practice education than existing urban agricultural program that relied upon basic theory education. And, they wanted urban agricultural program that was based on 'farming technology' to consist of practice education and theory education at the ratio of 80 and 20 and to be professional and differentiated. The citizens preferred 3 to 6 months of education period the most, and more than 95 percent of them wanted to join the program when it is developed.

The consulting industry had enjoyed growth rates over the past 20 years which show no signs of slowing in their momentum. Since 1995, it began to discuss institutionalization of consulting in the agricultural sector in Korea. Rural Development Adminstration has launched farm management consulting project by means of benchmarking for farming innovation in 1988, which consists of establishing consulting team, developing standard diagnosis form of sixty crops and materials, training consultants, having various public relations, and making information systems. Until October, 2001, sixty seven thousands of farmers have benefited on this project. It is now appreciated as a alternative for new agricultural extension approach. Analyzing the changes of farm management practice level through consulting shows improvement, which data have been stored in web database. It is expected that farm management consulting project be main stream of agricultural extension in this country.

This study aims to examine the needs analysis for agricultural management capabilities and farming practices that were emphasized by focusing to the inflow of farmers and the importance of the smooth succession. Data were collected from 134 farm successors. The Borich demand and the Locus for Focus model were hired for the study. Result were as follows. The competency group that the farm successors showed a high educational needs for was financial management. As for the detailed competencies that farm successors showed high educational needs for, based on Borich demand and the Locus for Focus model, the six detailed competencies of financial measures, financial analysis, financial management, sales planning, machine operation, and pest management were common and were derived as priorities. As for the direction of farming practice education for farm successors, based on these analysis results, education on machinery operation in the production sector should be expanded, and the management sector, more systematic and diverse education should be prepared to strengthen financial management capabilities.

The present study was conducted to investigate the differences in managed farming practices, including low-intensive farming, duck farming, and golden apple snail farming, in a rice ecosystem by comparing terrestrial arthropod communities. A total of 75 species from 70 genera belonging to 43 families in 11 orders were identified from 9,622 collected arthropods. Araneae, Hemiptera, and Coleoptera were the richest taxa. Collembola was the most abundant, followed by Diptera, Hemiptera, and Araneae. Bray-Curtis similarity among the farming practices was very high (76.7%). The biodiversity of each farming practice showed a similar seasonality pattern. The richest species group was the predators, followed by the herbivores. The species richness and diversity of ecologically functional groups among the farming practices were not statistically significant, except for the abundance of predators in golden apple snail farming. The biodiversity seasonality of ecological functional groups in each farming practice showed similar patterns. The biomass of Araneae, Hemiptera, Coleoptera, and Diptera was greater than the other taxa, in general. The biomass of each ecological functional group showed little difference and the biomass fluctuation patterns in each farming practice were almost the same. Collectively, the community structures and biodiversity of terrestrial arthropods among the farming practices in the present study were not different. The present study may contribute to sustain rich biodiversity in irrigated rice fields and to advanced studies of food webs or energy flow structures in rice fields for ecological and sustainable agriculture.

Increasing national concern on nonpoint source pollution of surface and ground water Systems has led researchers and policy makers to develop certain agricultural Best Management Practices. As an initial step of broad study program above mentioned, this study reflected the effects of different tillage practice on bulk density and degree of saturation on two regional soils, namely Tama silt loam and Catlin silt loam. Results may help to clarify some of the conflicting findings on the impact of tillage systems on these parameters and it may also explain some of the reasons for specific role that different tillage systems play regarding nonpoint source pollution from agricultural fields.

Gyeongsangbukdo is nation's leading producer of medicinal crop. Based on this, Gyeongbuk-specific measures for the development of oriental medicine industry is proposed. The aim is the development of oriental medicine industry and regional economic in Gyeongbuk. Production, research and development, manufacturing, distribution are constructed in industrial cluster. And each step need a quality control strictly. In production field, make the seed valley of medicinal crop and Good Agricultural Practice park. In research and development field, study on efficacy of oriental medicine with Good Laboratory Practice. In manufacturing field, make industrial park for foods, dietary supplements and drugs with Good Manufacturing Practice. In distribution field, supports advanced distribution program with Good Supply Practice.

In Asia, including Japan and Korea, rice paddies occupy the largest cultivated area in agricultural land. Rice paddies provide the habitats for many organisms including endemic species, sustaining high biodiversity. Insect natural enemies inhabiting rice paddies have an important function for rice production as agents of 'ecosystem services' because they play a major role in suppressing rice pests. The diversity and abundance of natural enemies can be a good index reflecting the 'healthiness' of agro-ecosystem services in rice paddies. The present study investigates whether insect natural enemies could be good biological indicators for general arthropod biodiversity and agricultural practice. First, the concept of ideal bio-indicators was summarized. The strategy to explore and select such bio-indicators was then proposed. Lastly, field survey was made to evaluate the abundance and biodiversity of natural enemies in Japanese rice paddies where chemical inputs, i.e., insecticide use, were different. The results showed that reduction of chemical inputs led to an increase in species richness or diversity of natural enemies including parasitoids and predators. Then, the data were analyzed to examine suitable indicator species to assess environmental soundness of agricultural practice and biodiversity in rice paddies. The density of several species of natural enemies did respond both to pesticide use and to general arthropod biodiversity. The analyses thus have indicated that natural enemies can be suitable as bio-indicators. Usefulness of indicator species in rice paddies is discussed in the context of ecologically sound agriculture.

무경운 재배가 논토양 온실가스 배출에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자, 1998~2000년에 걸쳐 식질계 답토양에서 질소비종(요소, 유안, 완효성비료), 시비방법(전층시비, 표층시비), 유기물 시용(볏집시용, 무시용) 및 재배양식(건답직파, 중묘이앙) 등의 다양한 재배조건별 메탄가스 배출량을 경운과 무경운재배에서 조사하였다. 질소비종은 경운유무에 관계없이 유안시비구에서 메탄배출량이 가장 낮았다(요소 대비 26.6~41.1% 저감). 그러나 경운재배에 비해 수량이 낮은 무경운재배에서는 완효성 비료가 메탄배출량이 요소구에 비해 약간 적었고, 수량은 다른 질소비료 시비량이 80% 처리수준에서도 가장 높아 더 효율적인 비종으로 고려되었다. 시비방법에 따라서는 전층시비시 경운구에 비해 무경운구의 메탄배출량이 낮았으나 표층시비시에는 반대의 경향을 보였다. 볏짚 시용시에는 무경운에 의한 메탄배출 저감 효과가 강조되는 경향으로, 볏짚을 시용하지 않았을 때는 경운 대비 10.7% 저감되었고, $5000kg\;ha^{-1}$시용 시는 26.6% 저감되었다. 중묘이앙 재배시 무경운은 경운에 비해 26.6%의 메탄 배출 저감효과를 나타내었으나, 건답직파 재배시는 무경운에서 경운보다 메탄배출이 11.2% 증가하였는데 이는 건답직파시 논토양이 완전 담수되는 3엽기 이전에 경운에 의해 토양에 투입된 볏짚 중 상당한 양이 산화적으로 분해되어 $CO_2$로 대기중으로 배출되었기 때문이라 생각되었다.
