This paper examines the effects of export subsidies on agricultural food exports, focusing on a case of Gyeongsangbuk-do. Using monthly data of agricultural food exports during 2007-2020 and the GLS regression analysis, we test the hypothesis whether the export subsidies would increase the exports of four major agri-food categories with three digit codes of HS such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, and mushrooms. Evidence shows that the export subsidies had statistically significant impacts on the agri-food exports except flowers. In order to test the robustness of the analysis, the agri-food export subsidies are reclassified into four sub-subsidy policies, and the analysis re-examines the effects of the sub-subsidies on agri-food exports. It shows that export policies for production stabilization, logistics, and overseas marketing promote the exports of agri-foods significantly. Alternative export policies are drawn in this study since the existing subsidies conflict with the WTO agricultural agreement.

This study aims to examine the farm household income and consumption structure change as well as farm income inequality. Data from the Agricultural Household Survey for the years 2016, 2021, and 2022 were hired to analyze farm income inequality by the Gini coefficient decomposition method. Results show that from 2016 to 2021, all income quintiles exhibited an increasing trend, but in 2022, income decreased across all quintiles. As a result of analyzing farm household consumption expenditure, consumption expenditure increased in all income quintiles in 2021 and 2022 compared to 2016, but consumption of optional goods decreased in the fifth quintile. In addition, it was found that farmers in the first quartile had higher consumption expenditures and expenditures on options than those in the second quartile. The analysis of farm income by region show that public subsidies increased significantly for general rural farmers than for farmers in special and metropolitan areas in all income quintiles during the period. In the case of the first quintile, farm household income in rural areas in special and metropolitan cities increased compared to general rural areas. In the fifth quartile, agricultural income and sideline income in general rural areas increased compared to rural areas in special and metropolitan cities, while rural areas in special and metropolitan cities increased non-business income compared to rural areas. Results of farming income inequality by income type show a steady decline in inequality from 2016 to 2022, indicating that the decreasing gini coefficinet of public subsidies is contributing to the decline in farm income inequality. Private subsidies and side income are shown to increase inequality.

고유가 시대인 현실에서 우리나라는 화석연료에 대한 의존도가 높아 저탄소 녹색성장이 가능한 경제사회 구조로의 전환이 시급하다. 현재 화석연료 사용과 관련된 보조금 개편은 환경에 유해한 투입요소에 대한 보조금을 감축 또는 제거하여 경제적 효율성을 제고하고 환경 피해를 완화시켜 사회 전체적으로 편익을 가져올 수 있는 Win-Win 효과가 기대되는 정책방안이다. 특히, 우리나라 전력부문에서 시행되는 보조금 제도 중에서 산업용, 농업용 및 심야전력에 대한 교차보조금의 경우, 전체 전력부문 보조금의 80% 이상을 차지하는 가장 큰 규모인데 본 논문은 전력부문 환경유해보조금 가운데 가장 큰 비중(연간 약 1조 6,583억원)을 차지하는 교차보조금 제도 중에서 산업용 전기의 환경유해보조금 개편 시 기대될 수 있는 파급효과를 가격탄력성 추정을 통해 파악하였다. 가격탄력성 추정에는 ARDL(자기회귀시차분포) 모형을 이용하였고, 기본 데이터는 1990년부터 2007년까지의 분기별 자료를 이용하였다. 본 연구에서 환경유해보조금 제거로 산업용 전력에 대한 연간 에너지 수요변화량은 -12,475,930MWh만큼 사용량이 감소할 것으로 추정되었으며, 이산화탄소 배출량의 경우를 보면 연간 2,644,897톤이 감소하는 것으로 추정되어 보조금 폐지가 이산화탄소 저감에 상당한 기여를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 EU에서 제시한 오염물질 단위당 환경오염비용을 이용하여 배출저감량을 금액으로 환산하면 산업용 전력보조금 제거로 연간 약 1조 1,914억원의 환경개선편익 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 이산화탄소의 경우 톤당 25유로를 적용하여 계산하면 산업용 전력보조금 제거로 연간 약 1,062억원의 환경개선편익이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다.

Agricultural land act was promulgated 1994, 12, 22. Now this is the time to evaluate present agricultural land related laws and its implications. Land problem is a conflict between private characteristics of ownership and public characteristics of utilization. Agricultural development aeras are the key areas where the conflict is intersected. Agricultural development aeras have many regulations to their use, so the price is relatively low. However to keep the food sufficiencies and public purposes, government have to keep agricultural development aeras. To compensate the owners of agricultural development aeras, I suggested some measures. One is direct payment to the owners of agricultural development aeras, the others are environmental subsidies.

Over the last three decades, Korean farming system has been directed to maximum agricultural production and to increase farmer's income through adoption of high-yielding crop varieties and high input of agrochemicals . These farming practices have resulted in problems of water-quality deterioration, soil degradation , and food safety. At present, over 40 million tones of animal waste are bing produced annually, which amounts to disposing the waste at the annual rate of 20 tones per ha in the total area of farming land in Korea. Nearly a half of total available water resources is used as irrigation water predominantly for rice paddy field. Thus, non-point source contamination of the water resources has been linked to agriculture across the nation. However, the extent to which agriculture contributes to the water quality is not fully known. Recently, Korean government provided various institutional measures to reduce the negative impacts of agricultural practices on the environ ental quality, and the Agricultural Environment Act was also passed by the legislature in 1998 and became effective January 1999. This Act does not cover the broad spectrum of the sustainable agriculture ; thus, the limited incentives within this Act are arguably ineffective to control the non-point source pollution. Recently new bulk blending of fertilizers(BB fertilizer) are bing produced (100, 000 tones in 1998) with Government subsidies. The BB fertilizers are to balance N-P-K ratio in the soils . Although the use of the BB fertilizers are encouraged with Government subsidies, non-point source pollution is still serious and will become worse. Precision farming is regarded as a new means for sustainable agriculture. It is a new technology that modifies the existing techniques and incorporates new one such as GIS, GPS , differential applicator to produce a new set of tools for the farmer to use. Precision farming, however, has constraints for individual farming practices. For exam le , farm size or parcel unit of each farmer is too small to adopt the precision agriculture on farmhouse-hold bases and farmer's ability to adopt the new technology is limited. However, it would be appropriate to establish local or regional cooperatives to operate such a precision farming system. It is recommended that Government provide sufficient incentives to help establish local and/or regional cooperatives.

Objectives: The purpose of the study was to classify the health and medical service affairs of local governments, and to analyze the proportions of non-matching fund by local governments and central government subsidies for local government health budget. Methods: First of all, health affairs of local governments were classified to categories based on health-related laws and previous studies by review of the authors. In order to specify the scale of local government-led health affairs, we allocated 1,916 budget units into 6 main and 24 sub categories of the health and medical service affairs of local governments for the 2020 health budget of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. For each categories, we compared the total amounts and the percentages of the 'central government subsidies', 'local government budget - matching fund', and 'local government budget - non-matching fund'. Results: The total health budget of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province accounts for 1.2% of the total budget. Of the total health budget of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, the proportion of central government subsidies was 39.6% and the proportions of local government budget-matching fund and non-matching fund were 33.8% and 26.6%, respectively. The proportions of non-matching fund by provincial and basic local governments were 37.3% and 19.9%, respectively. Conclusion: In order for local governments to deal with the health problems of residents, it is necessary to secure and spend more local government budget(i.e., non-matching fund by local government) for health affairs in their administrative jurisdiction.

This study aimed to investigate the use of environmentally friendly agricultural products (EFAPs) in Chungcheongbuk-do and the perception and satisfaction of school dietitians with EFAPs. The study survey was conducted from April to Jun 2018. Among 195 dietitians, 54.4% were nutrition teachers and 51.3% were working in elementary schools. Of the participants, 65% answered that the percentage of EFAPS in the total food cost was 10~30%. The most used EFAP food group was grains (64.6%), followed by vegetables (26.2%). The main reasons for using EFAPs were subsidies for EFAPs from local governments (85.1%) and students' health (52.3%). The average daily subsidy for EFAPs from the local governments was 201~500 won at 45.1%, and 200 won or less at 34.9%, which was based on one meal per student. In questions on satisfaction with using EFAPs, satisfaction with safety (3.93 out of 5 points) scored the highest, followed by nutrition (3.74), freshness (3.70), appearance (3.32), diversity (2.85), and price (2.78). Therefore, to expand the use of EFAPs in school food service, it is necessary to expand the provision of subsidies and increase EFAP production diversification.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) has several advantages over conventional remote sensing techniques. They can acquire high-resolution images quickly and repeatedly. And with a comparatively lower flight altitude, they can obtain good quality images even in cloudy weather. In this paper, we discussed the state-of-the-art of the domestic and international use of UAV in agricultural sector as well as assessed its utilization and applicability for agricultural environment in Korea. Association of robotic, computer vision and geomatic technologies have established a new paradigm of low-altitude aerial remote sensing that has now been receiving attention from researchers all over the world. In a field study, it has been found that use of UAV imagery in an agricultural subsidy program can reduce the farmers' complain and provide objective evidence. UAV high resolution photography can also be helpful in monitoring the disposal zone for animal carcasses. Due to its expeditiousness and accuracy, UAV imagery can be a very useful tool to evaluate the damage in case of an agricultural disaster for both parties insurance companies and the farmers. Also high spatial and temporal resolution in UAV system can increase the prediction accuracy which in turn help to maintain the agricultural supply and demand chain.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) have several advantages over conventional remote sensing techniques. UAV can acquire high-resolution images quickly and repeatedly with a comparatively lower flight altitude i.e. 80~400 m nullifying the effect of extreme weather and cloud. This study discussed the use of low cost-effective UAV based remote sensing application in inspection of agricultural subsidy. The study area accrue $60.5km^2$ of Buljeong-myeon, Goesan-gun, Chungbuk in South Korea. UAV image acquired 25 times from July 25 to August 11, 2015 for 3 days. It is observed that almost 81.1 % (3,571 of 4,410 parcels) parcels are truthful whereas some parcels are incorrect or fraudulent. Surveying with UAV for agricultural subsidy instead of field stuff can reduce the required time as much as 64.8 % (19 of 54 days). Therefore, it can contribute significantly in speedy and more accurate processing of grant application and can end unfair receipt of the grant which in turn will improve customer satisfaction.
