This study assessed the effects of treatment with sap extract from onion residues postharvest and purslane on the quality and quantity of organic onions. At the bending stage, onions treated with the sap extract showed vigorous growth, with higher plant heights, more leaves, and longer sheath lengths than untreated onions. The onion yield was significantly increased when the plant was treated with extracted sap as compared with that of untreated plants (p<0.05). The bulb weight distribution of onions in the mixed onion and purslane treatment was also significantly increased (~300 g) as compared with that of the other treatment (p<0.05). Except for CaO and S, the mineral content of the onions produced from plants treated with the onion and purslane extract mixture was higher than those of onions in the other treatment. The hardness of onions produced from plants treated with the onion and purslane extract was significantly increased (8% and 20%, respectively) as compared with that of onions produced from plants treated with the onion extract only or no treatment (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the sugar contents of the onions produced from extract-treated and nonextract-treated plants. Postharvest, the content of inorganic components (phosphate, calcium, sulfuric acid, and manganese) was higher in soil treated with the onion extract than in soil treated with the onion and purslane extract and non-treated soil. It can be concluded that residues left after onion harvests and purslane extract can be used as natural and environmentally friendly materials for the cultivation of organic onions.

The present study was carried out to determine the effect of the physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of paddy soil on the adsorption and desorption of $Sr^{90}$ from absorbed soils. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Most of the adsorbed $Sr^{90}$ was exchangeable and water soluble. $Sr^{90}$ extracted by ammonium acetate was very high compared to the water soluble fractions, and the ammount decreased with the increase of calcium application, but increased proportionally with the increase of $Sr^{90}$ treatment. 2. The distribution of $Sr^{90}$ in paddy soil depend on the soil type. Average-distribution rates of water soluble, exchangeable and non-exchangeable fractions of $Sr^{90}$ in the soils were 28.6%, 59.3% and 12.1% respectively. 3. The non-exchangeable from of $Sr^{90}$ was high in the soils of high illite and low vermiculite content. 4. The desorption of $Sr^{90}$ from adsorbed soils decreased with the increase of pH and ex-cations of the soils, but increased with the amount of organic matter and clay content in the soil.

The composite fiber adsorbents containing amidoxime group were prepared and separation properties of uranium ion from seawater were investigated. The amount of uranium adsorption was increased with an increase in adsorption time. When the mole ratio of monomer and comonomer, such as acrylonitrile (AN), tetraethyleneglycol dimethacrylate(TEGMA), and divinylbenzene (DVB), were 1 :0. 1 :0.003, this resin showed the maximum adsorption ability for uranium at a level of pH 8. The amount of uranium adsorption was also increased linearly to one hour with an increase in the content of adsorbent which was added in the composite fiber adsorbents(CFA). The maximum adsorption for uranium of CF A showed at $25^{\circ}C$. Hence, the adsorption ability of CF A for calcium and magnecium ions were increased gradually by the recycling of adsorption and disorption, the adsorption content of their on were 0.3, 0.9mmole/g-adsorbents, respectly. It also showed that the adsorption contents of Ca and \1g ions were much lower than them of uranium. The desorption of uranium on the CF A was carried out , bout 100% within 30min, and the desorption rate of various CF A were equalled.

As the consumption of wheat has increased recently, the number of people who have digestive problems resulting from gluten in wheat has also increased. Teff has an attractive nutritional profile, as it not only gluten-free but also high in dietary fiber, protein, iron, and calcium. Seven samples were prepared for this study. The quality characteristics of gluten-free noodles were evaluated based on pH, salinity, water absorption, turbidity, color, texture properties, tensile strength, and SEM. The pH value was the highest in TF100 with a pH of 6.66 and the lowest in the control with a pH of 6.42. Salinity showed no significant difference among all samples, and it ranged from 0.02~0.04% (p<0.05). Water absorption was the highest in TFX with a value of 66.11%, and the lowest in the control with a value of 44.81%. Turbidity showed no significant difference among all samples, and it ranged from 0.14~0.21 O.D. (p<0.05). While the lightness and yellowness values decreased with an increase in teff flour content, the redness value tended to decrease. The color difference value was the highest in the sample group without gluten. Based on the texture profile analysis, the hardness was highest in the control with a value of 46.74 N and lowest in TF100 with a value of 18.34 N. The springiness showed no significant difference among all samples. The cohesiveness was highest in the control with a value of 0.92 N. The chewiness decreased with an increase in teff flour content. Although the control with gluten had the highest tensile strength at $3.42kg/cm^2$, TFX had considerable tensile strength at $2.30kg/cm^2$. This study demonstrated the processability of gluten-free noodles using teff flour.

For increasing Productivity of Nutri-irrigation culture used liquified fertilizer in sandy land, the effect of Ca etc. on growth and roat system of crop (radish) was studied. Results are as follows. 1) High level of Ca in irrigated nutrient solution promoted growth of radish, especially, growth of underground part and increased yield on sand media than low level of Ca. 2) High level of cation promoted also growth of radish compared with control though less than high level of Ca do. 3) Promoted growth in high level of Ca and cation acompanied larger attachment of sand grain to root system making good condition for absorption. 4) Higher content of Ca in fibrous roots and attached sand grains compared with thickend root and other sand media (especially, in higher level of Ca), suggest a specific roll of Ca on the in teraction between roots and media constituting a root environment for productivity. 5) The content of Ca, Mg, Mn, in tops are manifestly higher than underground part while no dislinct differences are found between tops and underground parts in N.P.K.

To investigate the relationship between the translocation and distribution the monovalent K and Na and the divalent Sr and Ca, the natrophile and calcitrophic plant sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) was used. Strontium uptake and distribution are concentration and growth stage dependent. The highest Ca content occurred in the treatment of 4 : 1 mM ratio of Ca to Sr, while the highest Sr content in old leaves in the presence of 1 mM Ca and 4 mM Sr. The addition of low concentration of Sr stimulates Ca-uptake. Reversely. Sr-uptake is highest in the presence of 1 mM Ca. This result may be an antagonistic effect between Ca and Sr. The ratios of Mg to Ca and Sr are satisfactorily presented by the regression analysis. The sum of Sr and Ca contents are most significant linear to the ratio of Mg to one, showing a negative correlation. This result implies that the absorption of Mg and Ca or Sr is antagonistic. In the presence of only 5 mM Sr, K and Na-uptakes increases, while Sr in the presence of Ca does not affect the change in the K and Na assimilation and their ratios. The ratios of K to Na is also not changed. A little addition of Sr could more effectively retain the chlorophyll loss while only in the presence of Sr, the chlorophyll levels are considerably reduced.
