  • Production of yeast diet has been carried out in batch fermenters under optimum culture conditions. The fermentation of Candida utilis on a $2\%$ complex medium resulted in 1.22 g/L/h productivity and $65\times10^8$ viable cells/ml, and the addition of $15{\mu}M$ zinc to the medium increased both the productivity and the number of viable cells just a little more. In the case of the fermentation of Kluyveromyces fragilis, the highest value of the biomass productivity, 1.94 g/L/h, was obtained on a $2.5\%$ fructose medium with $70\times10^8$ viable cells/ml, and $1\%$ peptone was found to be a growth factor in this fermentation. When $3.5\%$ NaCl was added to the given medium, both the biomass productivity and the number of viable cells decreased significantly in each fermentation, but this may be considered to preserve yeast diet long without osmotic lysis.

  • The paper estimates changes in total factor productivity and technical efficiency change index and technical change index using Malmquist productivity index(MPI) in fisheries wholesale products over the time period of 2006 through 2008. The model considers a number of employees and operating costs as input factors, and sales and EBIT(earnings before tax and interest) as output factors. The results indicate that, between 2006 and 2007, there is in general technical progress in which TCI(Technical Change Index) indicates 2.7994 in the sale scale of 50 million won through 100 million won, while there are no efficiency in TECI(Technical Efficiency Change Index), PECI(Pure Efficiency Change Index) and SECI(Scale Efficiency Change Index) which are estimated to be around 1. Between 2007 and 2008 technical efficiency and technical progress are generally declined, compared to those of 2006 and 2007. Wilcoxon's rank-sum test shows that there are statistically significant difference of TCI and MPI between two periods at the level of 5%, while there are statistically significant difference of TECI, PECI and SECI between two periods at the level of 5%.

  • This paper describes a floating fish reef technology for enhancement of fisheries productivity in the muddy areas. The floating fish reef was composed of main fish cage, anchor rope and concrete anchor blocks. Main fish cage was made up of 12 steel buoys measuring 0.37m in diameter and 1.5m long, polyethylene (PE) netting and circular steel rings. Each steel buoy had buoyancy of 110kgf. The size of main fish cage was 1.96 m in diameter and 3.75m in length. Monitoring on its durability was made for eight months after installation. The steel buoys fixed on main fish cage and nettings were observed to be kept safely. The wet weight of fouling organisms per unit area$(m^2)$ was 26.6kgf after eight months. Reduction in the cross-section of steel buoys and circular steel rings of main fish cage were not found. In addition, any cracks on the concrete anchor blocks were not observed.

  • The purpose of this study is to estimate the economic value and productivity achieved through a reduction in fishing vessels engaged in coastal and offshore fisheries. We found that the value of increasing catch by types in offshore and coastal fisheries was about 17,338 billion won. To examine the economic value, a cost-benefit analysis was applied. This is based on the total cost of vessel reduction (4,576 billion won) assumed to be invested equally each year for five years. BCR and NPV with a discount rate (5.5%) were used to compare the profit of fishery activities in offshore and coastal areas. The model results showed that the NPV and BCR in offshore and coastal fisheries was 5,522 billion won and 2.340 respectively.

  • The present study conducted a comparison on tree growth and productivity of high-density apple orchards by several orchard management systems: making scaffolds by heading-back and thinning out pruning (T-1), maintaining scaffolds upward and bearing shoots downward (T-2), managing branches slightly upward without heading-back (T-3), keeping leaders downward and shoots pending (T-4), maintaining leaders high and branches horizontal with severe pinching (T-5), making leaders with lower branches vigorous and upper shoots pending (T-6), and controlling very high planting density with bending branches (T-7). In conclusion, the orchards of (T-5) and (T-6) management systems showed a superior performance in controlling tree growth, productivity, and quality of fruits. Also, superior management efficiency was obtained in the orchards of (T-5) and (T-6).

  • In this study, we propose a method of optimal placement technique of artificial reef considering characteristics of sea areas and provide basic data for efficient budget execution. In addition, we will contribute to increasing the economic efficiency by improving the fisheries productivity by suggesting the scientific basis for the policy data and the increase of the catch through the resource creation based on the ecological information about the biology. Especially, in order to establish the effective disposition (optimum separation distance) of artificial reef considering characteristics of biological and engineering factors, it is necessary to review the artificial reef installation management regulations and investigate the biological effects of artificial reef facilities, is needed. Through this, it is expected that the ground data of the direction of the policy promotion will be derived by suggesting the placement condition of the artificial reef complex which can maximize the resource composition effect according to the target fish species.

  • This study intends to review the development of Large Purse Seine Fisheries in Korea and Japan, and subsequent changes in the fisheries regime as well as management conditions and to examine reorganization directions. In the Northeast Asian Fishing Area, each country has done mutual operation, which causes the fishery competition and controls fishery development. Besides, Exclusive Economic Zon(EEZ) established in 1996 resulted in the prominent changes of fishery development as well as fishery relationship among each country, demands reorganization of fisheries. In the Large Purse Seine fisheries, Korea and Japan are not decreasing, they are stable. In other words, the increase in one country does not necessarily make the decrease in the other country. This is a difference from the case of the bottom fishery. Japan is the highest in the cost, the management is getting worse due to decreasing fish price and shortage of labor. In the case of Korea, the stagnant productivity has been compensated by the rising fish price, but the fishery of low productivity to cut down the size. In addition, during the 1990s the environment of fishery is getting worse because of the free import fishery, shortage of labor, etc. Following the new fisheries paradigm, each country should reorganize its fisheries structure. The principle for reorganization of fisheries structure in each country should be focused on the establishment of sustainable fisheries. The reorganization of fisheries structure for each country by EEZ establishment does not mean only dividing fishing ground and fisheries resources by countries, but means that countries should cooperate together in fisheries management for long-run benefits from fisheries.

  • This study compared the productivity of fish and vegetables grown using the hybrid biofloc technology-aquaponics (HBFT-AP), a semi-recirculating aquaculture system (SRAS), and hydroponics (HP). For the study of fish productivity (HBFT-AP vs. SRAS), fish were provided feed containing 3.0% monobasic potassium phosphate (MKP) for 18 weeks. After the 18-week feeding trial, the average weight of the sampled population (n=100) was not significantly different (P>0.05), while hematocrit (PCV, %), hemoglobin (Hb, g/dL), and plasma K (mEq/L) were significantly different (P<0.05) between the two groups (HBFT-AP: 47.83%, 15.48 g/dL, and 1.39 mEq/L; SRAS 34.83%, 11.81 g/dL, and 2.48 mEq/L). Leaf vegetable productivity (HBFT-AP vs. HP) was compared in three experiments (EXP 1-3), and slower growth was observed in both groups in EXP 2, in which pH was maintained at 5.0 or less throughout the experiment. During the 18-week feeding trial, total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), $NO_3-N$, and $PO_4-P$ levels increased with time in the HBFT-AP system, while the concentration of $NO_2-N$ remained below 0.1 mg/L throughout the study.

  • The fisheries resources control system in the Fisheries Act of Korea is introducing technical management method and input control method that controls fishing effort. Fishing effort control system of Korea aiming at realizing the maximum sustainable yield does not regulating the limitation of fishing quota and the limitation of fisheries object target fish. Therefore fishing operators who have fishing permit can use fishery resources without any restriction of fishing quota. But there are no rules that can controlling capacity of productivity of fishing by developing of fishing technic and fishing gear. For those reasons, productivity of fishing is superior to reproductivity of fisheries resources. Therefore, the Fisheries Act of Korea rearranges a legal basis for an introduction of fisheries resources management system by TAC, but the contents to be possible for a legal guarantee is not included and it is exceedingly defective as abstract and institutional devices. And that the affairs to be required for an enforcement of the said regime was placed in an administrative mandatory legislation and the danger to be degenerated is high in accordance with the bureaucratic self-righteous and/or the coercion of group's interest concerned and accordingly its substitute legislation system is keenly required. TAC system that is going to be introduced in our country is expected to enforce the Olympic fishing method and the individual quota method in parallel. This method is not certainly proper, because it occurs to overcapitalize and to compete fishing amounts between fishery operators. So as to prevent overcapitalization and fishing competition between fishery operators, and the exhaustion of coastal fisheries resources, individual transferable quota system should be introduced in Korean sea. Accordingly this thesis has attempted to constitute a view to improving problems of the traditional fisheries resources control system and introducing TAC fisheries resources control system.
