The study examined the socio-economic factors influencing the participation of rural farming households in barter trade in Ondo State, Nigeria. The objectives were to compare the socio-economic characteristics of the participants and non-participants in barter trade, analyze the preference for barter trade and identify the constraints to it. Also, the factors affecting respondents' participation in barter trade were identified. Empirical results indicated that there were significant differences in the socio-economic characteristics of the participants and non-participants in barter trade. The SWOT analysis showed that possession of agrarian attributes by the locality where the trade is practiced was the strongest factor ensuring the survival of barter in the study area. Double coincidence of wants was found to be the most prevailing weakness associated with barter while the major reason for participation by some households was that the quantity of commodities received is usually higher compared with cash transactions. Transportation cost to barter markets was found to be the greatest threat to the continued existence of barter trade in the area. The results of the Probit model showed that age, household size, transportation cost to cash markets, farm size, distance to barter markets, and formal education significantly affected the probability participating in barter trade.

Recently, the number of people who return to rural areas for farming is increasing rapidly. This attracted public attention so that the Ministry of Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries announced officially comprehensive countermeasures to help those returning to rural areas. But there is not sufficient consideration of the role of local governments in the above countermeasures. Policy package to help returning people establish themselves in rural area include many soft programs that requires governance, delicate implementation process and expertise to advise. Therefore, the local governments should have appropriate governance and perspectives.

It Is not uncommon to see some reports that livestock wastes are discharged into land, streams or seas without any treatment in the protective area of water resource. This study reports the development of the technique of protecting water resources through making use of treated livestock in organic farming after the procedures of collecting livestock wastes in 100% water tight PDF tanks, mixing Pedac, etc and fermenting. This techinque makes organic farming products possible without experiencing soil acidification caused by chemical fertilizer.

The major purpose of this study is to collect the information related on the aspects of economic efficiency for solving the problems which are faced by farmers and areas, and providing scientific facts to farmers and related institutions for further development of sericultural sector in Korea. In order for obtaining the related information 12 sample areas among 23 major sericultural farming areas and 30 farm units in each area are selected and analyzed in this study. The fold suevey is made by member of this study team and graduate students in the Department of Sericultural Science with a prepared questionnaires. Cross-section and regression analysis methods are employed for processing the data in this study. The major findings obtained are as followings. 1. Sericultural earnings per Tanbo is, on the average, 22, 752 won in new cultivated areas and 29, 403 won in ordinary ones. There are big difference in the size of earnings by areas, especially, 46, 968 won in Kumo mountain area, compared with 16, 798 won in Yeoju and Yichun areas. General trend is finded that small scale farming units are made higher earnings and operating their farms efficiently. 2. Cocoon production expences per Tanbo is 16, 737 won in new cultivated areas and 19, 802 won in ordinary areas. There are also big difference in farming expences, especially, 27, 389 won in Sudang area, compared with 11, 689 won in Emjin area. 3. Sericultural income per Tanto is 10, 664 won in ordinary areas and 6, 898 won in new cultivated areas. Farmers in Kumo mountain area make the highest income of 21, 164 won and lowest income of 1, 296 won in Sudang area. It can be generized that about 30-50 a sized farmers make higher income. 4. Land, labor and capital productivities estimated by fitting Cobb-Douglas functions in ordinary areas are higher than in new cultivated areas, especially, labor productivity is higher in ordinary areas. 5. Changsung, Kwangna, Yunsun and Kumo mountain areas are technically and economically efficient. Sudang and Mujinchang areas are technically successful but economically inefficient and Emjin and Honam areas are technically inefficient but economically efficient. YeojuYichun, Chunwon and West Kyongnam are technically and economically inefficient. Technical and economic improvement program should be implemented for these areas. 6. Estimated Internal Rate of Return (IRR) on capital investment in Chongwon are is 23.5 percent. It is economically feasible, if we consider 20 percent of opportunity cost of capital in our economy.

This study was carried out to estimate heavy metal loads at plain area of the rural watersheds during farming season in 2006. The experimental area was belonging to Geum River watershed. That was located at the center of South Korea. Water samples were corrected at two kinds of aspects. One is regular sampling(every two month) and the other is irregular sampling(every rainfall event). The result showed that heavy metal properties of regular samples were highest at May and June with lively agricultural activities. Heavy metal concentration of irregular samples was lower than that of regular samples. But the heavy metal loads of irregular samples were high. The correlation between each heavy metals of regular samples was following as Mn-Cd > Mn-Fe > Mn-Al > Fe-Al > Al-Cd. The correlation of irregular samples was following as Fe-AI > Zn-Mn > Fe-Cd > Cd-Al. Loading rates of daily discharge the plain area of designed rural watershed during farming season were Al 3.070 kg/day, Cu 0.526 kg/day, Fe 0.745 kg/day, Zn 0.314 kg/day, Cd 0.010 kg/day, Cr 0.055 kg/day, Mn 0.140 kg/day and Pb 0.098 kg/day. Loading rate of discharge with heavy metals during the survey period was Al(577.23 kg) > Fe(140.08 kg) > Cu(98.93 kg) > Zn(58.99 kg) > Mn(26.34 kg) > Pb(18.51 kg) > Cr(10.34 kg) > Cd(1.93 kg).

본 연구의 목적은 농업후계자들이 대학에서 전문교육을 받고 귀향한 후 친환경농업을 실천하는 데 따른 어려움을 파악하고 이를 해결할 수 있는 방안을 검토하는 데 있다. 본 연구의 조사대상은 전체 한농대 졸업생 감귤농가 24명 중에서 친환경농업을 실천하고 있거나 실천 경험이 있는 총 8명 중 조사에 응한 6농가이며, 개방형 설문지에 의한 사례 연구 방식으로 분석되었다. 사례농가들의 영농실태 분석결과, 이들은 기후변화 및 시장개발에 대응하기 위해 작목전환과 경영의 다각화를 도모하고 있으며, 농법으로는 한 농가만이 무농약 수준의 친환경농업을 희망하고 있고 대부분 유기재배를 지향하고 있다. 사례농가의 경영비 분석결과, 자재비 기준으로 물재비는 더 적게 들지만 관행농업과 같은 수준의 상품성을 얻기 위해서는 노력비가 더 들어가야 하는 것으로 조사되었다. 친환경농업의 생산량은 관행농업에 비해 20-50% 정도 감소하며, 판매가격은 10-50% 높은 것으로 나타났다. 친환경 감귤농가의 애로사항으로는 유기농업 기술 부족과 친환경농업에 적합한 판로부족이며 규모확대를 위한 토지구입이 어려운 것은 제주 농업이 갖는 특수한 제약조건이다. 졸업생 농가의 친환경농법으로의 전환은 부모님과의 합의가 어려운 문제로 나타나고 있으며, 친환경농업 기술을 자문 받을 수 있는 지역의 창구가 없다는 점이 지적되었다. 졸업생농가가 친환경농법으로 전환하기 위해서는 농업기술원 및 농업기술센타를 중심으로 친환경농업 선진농가와의 연계를 통해서 지속적인 기술교육과 자문이 이루어질 수 있도록 가칭 '제주 친환경 생태 유기농업 포럼'을 구성하여 기술자문 및 현장애로 기술이 개발 보급될 필요가 있다. 친환경 감귤의 적정 가격과 판로를 확보하기 위해서는 제주 지역의 로컬푸드와 연계된 판매활동과 육지의 로컬푸드와의 연계도 필요하다. 안전성과 신선도의 가치를 소비자가 신뢰하고 구매할 수 있는 다양한 유통채널을 확보해야 한다. 대부분의 사례농가의 소득증대를 위해서 장기적으로 체험이나 관광과 연계할 수 있는 6차농업의 농장경영을 구상할 필요가 있다. 다양한 품종의 감귤을 도입하여 다양성을 확보하고 체험 및 관광과 연계시켜 생태 유기농장으로 발전해 가야 한다. 이를 위해서는 국내외 선진 농장을 벤치마킹하고 정책사업과 연계할 수 있는 기반을 조성해야 한다. 한국농수산대학에서는 제주지역 졸업생들이 친환경 유기농업을 통해서 경영의 안정을 꾀하고 지역농업의 리더가 될 수 있도록 연구기관 및 보급기관과 연계하여 제주지역에 맞는 지원 프로그램을 개발하고 이를 바탕으로 졸업 후에도 지속적으로 새로운 정보와 기술을 제공해야 한다.
