  • Hsinchu Science Park, one of the most productive electronic sites in the world, is located at Hsinchu County. Hsinchu County Government is entitled for daily management to pursue the objectives of making every county citizen prosperous. Several web-based management information systems have been developed for county management and were widely implemented. However, forest management is one of several tasks which need development of web-based geographic information systems. The objectives of this paper are to develop GIS for forest management at Hsinchu County in order to solve problems encountered in the rapid changing circumstance. The objectives of forest management at Hsinchu County have been changed a little bit in the last decade. Now, it mainly focuses on public and private forest, tree planting, wind break forest management, and plane forest planting. The major ingredients of GIS for forest management are user-friendly, task-oriented, and direct linking to the existing GIS at Hsinchu County. AreIMS and ArcGIS were used for web-based GIS. Field operations of forest management depend on PDA and GPS such that ArcPAD is implemented both on personal computers and PDA. Computer programming is required for database management and development of application modules in forest management. Color digital orthophoto maps at scale of 1:5000 provide very useful background information. Forest management at Hsinchu County now is operated in an efficient way that GIS, remote sensing, GPS and PDA are working smoothly.

  • Purpose - Relationship between farm and county losses determines whether the county program provides too little, too much, or similar amount of assistance relative to the loss on an individual farm. A review of the literature finds limited analysis of the determinants of this relationship. This paper conducts such an analysis using farm-level yield data. Research design, data, and methodology - Farm-level yield data from Illinois and Kansas farm business management associations are used for to calculate the correlation between farm and county loss and the share of farm loss systemic with county loss, and also for the regression analysis. Results - Average share of farm loss systemic with the county loss lies between 42% and 68%. The correlation between farm and county yield/revenue deviation from expected value is statistically significant in all four models. The coefficient is positive, implying the higher the correlation, the larger the share of farm loss that is systemic with the county loss. Conclusions - The findings of this study are consistent with the existing literature which argues that county variability may not be closely associated with farm variability. The findings of this study thus raise questions about the efficacy of area yield and revenue insurance products in helping farmers manage their risk.

  • 본 연구는 조선 후기 고령현을 그린 군현지도와 지리지의 부도(이하 '군현지도')를 계열별로 내용과 고지명을 비교하였고, "대동여지도"와의 연관성을 분석하였다. 23점의 고령현 군현지도들은 회화식지도 8점, 1리 방안지도와 20리 방안지도가 각 4점, 지방지도 5점, 분류 미상인 지도 2점로 구분되었다. 계열별 특징을 보면 회화식지도 계열의 경우 산과 하천을 풍수 형국으로 해석하여, 산줄기가 고령현의 서쪽에서 동쪽의 낙동강으로 이어지는 형태로 묘사하였고, 하천도 이와 상응하여 서쪽에서 발원하여 동으로 유입하는 형태로 그렸다. 1리 방안지도 계열에서는 지도의 배치를 서쪽을 위로 하여 그렸으며, 낙동강을 지도의 아래에 배치하였다. 고령현이 역사적으로 내륙으로 이어지는 교통의 요지로서, 이를 현장감있게 표현한 결과로 사료된다. 20리 방안지도는 다른 지도와는 달리 낙동강의 일부만이 묘사되어 있다. 이는 당시 낙동강변의 일부 지역이 다른 고을에 속하였기 때문이다. 다른 지도에 비해 간결하고 사실적으로 표현하였고, 도로망등을 통해 인접한 고을과의 연결성을 강조하고 있다. 지방지도 계열의 경우 지도 구도는 1리 방안지도와 유사하여 서쪽을 지도 위에 표현하였다. 특히 초계와의 경계를 산줄기로 뚜렷하게 표현하여 지리적 소통이 약함을 표현하였고, 대신 지도의 우측인 북쪽을 열린 공간으로 묘사하였다. 지도별 수록 지명을 보면 회화식 지도와 지방 지도의 경우 읍치 관련 지명들이 많다. 1리 방안지도의 경우 봉수 관련 지명과 험로 등의 지명이 비교적 상세하다. 20리 방안지도의 경우 수록 지명수는 적으나 이웃 고을과의 연결성을 파악할 수 있는 산지 지명을 많이 수록하였다. "대동여지도"와 이들 군현지도를 비교하여 보았을때 20리 방안지도와 가장 가까우나 일부 지명에서 새로운 내용이 수록되어 있다. 이들 내용은 "대동여지도"가 제작되면서 이용된 자료를 추적하는 근거가 될 수 있다.

  • Agricultural extension services in YoungDong county, ChungBuk province have tried and changed many things to overcome difficult situations since localization of extension services in 1997. The county Rural Guidance Office changed the name of the office as county Agricultural Technology & Extension Center (ATEC), and has been operated as a service center for all people who need help in agriculture. The recent efforts of the ATEC have been placed on eco-friendly agriculture and sustainable agriculture for protecting the natural environment of the county as well as production of safe agricultural products. In order to overcame difficult situations under the IMF, the ATEC has tried to find new ways for the extension services because of reduced extension educators under the IMF restructuring. The followings were a few examples of many efforts in various fields to overcome difficult situations in the rural county; 1) The ATEC has supported services to produce safe and high quality agricultural products and to increase their high value through extension services for food processing. 2) The ATEC has opened experimental fields for farmers who want to learn new technologies to cultivate grapes, persimmons, apples and pests etc., specialty fruit trees in the county. 3) The ATEC has implemented many kinds of programs to improve the quality of the extension educators to serve better.

  • 조선시대의 관도(官道)는 당시 지리지들의 기술방식으로도 짐작할 수 있듯이, 수도 한양과 지방의 각 고을 및 군사요충지를 직결하는 것을 제일의 목적으로 하고 있었다. 바꾸어 말하면 지방행정도시인 읍치와 수도는 관도를 통해 가장 가깝게 연결되어 있었던 것이다. 관도는 공무여행자의 정식통로이자 관리의 파견 및 귀경통로였다. 따라서 이 관도가 읍치로 접어드는 지점이 보통 그 해당 읍치의 현관문이 되는 것이었다. 한편 지형적 제약 등이 없는 한 대부분의 읍치에서는 관아의 좌향이 남향이었기 때문에, 이를 마주보는 남쪽 출구가, 읍성이 있으면 남문이 으레 읍치의 현관문이 되었다. 따라서 판도는 읍치 주변을 우회해서라도 남문으로 돌아서 읍치에 들어가도록 고지도 등에는 그려지고 있는데, 이는 실제적인 교통로의 체계와 차이가 날 수 있는 '상징적 교통로'였다. 관아와 현관문 사이, 때로는 주산, 내삼문, 외삼문, 비보 등의 요소까지 추가되어서 해당 읍치의 상징축이 형성되었다. 다만 역시 지형이나 교통로의 방향 때문에 실제 공간상에서는 상징축의 방향과 교통로의 방향, 심지어 현관문의 위치까지도 실제와 어긋나는 경우도 많았다.

  • This paper aims to analyse the impact of city-county consolidation on promotion practices of local government employees, using system dynamics approach. The cases employed in this study are Cheongju City and Cheongwon County which reached the referendum stage twice but without success. While the idea of consolidating two neighbouring local governments via a merger sounds enticing, some opponents argue that consolidation may cause some problems on the part of local government employees, emphasizing that consolidation could lengthen actual time period needed for local government employees' promotion. The majority of the existing literature on city-county consolidation, however, tends to describe the most successful cases, focusing on the achievements it has made or the political processes associated with it. With this in mind, this paper attempts to identify the impacts of consolidation on the local government employees' promotion time period, utilizing system dynamics approach. It concludes that consolidation could rather shorten the time period of promotion of local government employees concerned from the long term perspective.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the health center hospital on the health service utilization pattern of the rural population in a county. Two field studies had been conducted in Yonchon County, Kyunggi Province, on February 1989 and on August 1991 before and after the establishment of the Yonchon health center hospital. This study revealed that Yonchon health center hospital occupied 7.3% of total outpatient visits and 16.8% of hospitalization of the county population and the self-sufficient rate of the outpatient visit and hospitalization of Yonchon County between two field studies increased by 1.7% and 20.9% each. Yonchon health center hospital contributed to the growth of the public health sector but it weakened the role of health sub-centers. For the efficient health service utilization of the population in that County, more investment to health center hospital would be needed and the primary health activities of the health subcenter should be enforced.

  • This paper aims to study regional difference in strawberry farming technology and its causal factors based on the survey of controlled strawberry farmers in three major strawberry cultivating regions, which are Nonsan county of Chungnam Province, Damyang County of Junnam Province and Guchang County of Kyungnam Province. There are differences in variety adoption, packaging and grading method which cause the farming income gap among these regions. Farmers of Guchang County, who adopt new variety Yeobong and packing system, raised highest gross receipts but ranked next to Damyang in terms of net income because of high packing cost. Farmers of Nonsan County earned lowest income because of poor quality and low price in spite of adopting packing cost saving method. Therefore, results of this study shows that successful farming technology depend on whether or not farmers adopt market oriented technology. It is suggested that direction of strawberry farming technology should focus on adopting new varieties which can contribute to increasing farmers' paid price and developing technology of reducing cost such as labor saving and packing machine.

  • The increasing cost, and demand for, household energy has increased attention to the phenomena of energy burdens. Despite this increased attention, a lack of consensus remains in pinpointing the strongest predictors, and geographic differences, that exist within the energy ecosystem. This study addresses this gap by utilizing a series of dummy variable regressions across cities, suburbs, and rural areas within Erie County, New York-a county noted to have particularly high energy burdens. Specifically, three types of predictor sets were incorporated into the methodology: a set of socioeconomic variables, physical variables, and a combination of both variable sets. The results of this study suggest that cities tend to have the highest electricity burdens. Despite the aging infrastructure in Erie County, high energy burdens were driven primarily by socioeconomic factors such as housing cost burden and poverty status. Lastly, this study explores various planning and policy implications Erie County can utilize to reduce energy burdens. In turn, this study highlights the importance of focusing policy efforts on existing social service programs to provide support to the region's neediest households.
