This survey was conducted to obtain basic data about organic matter such as BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand), COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) and TOC (Total Organic Carbon) in agricultural water in Gyeongnam province. BOD and COD are currently used for water quality indices, but adoption of TOC is being suggested. The surface water samples were collected at 39 locations in Gyeongnam province in April, July and October. Average concentrations of BOD, COD, DOC and TOC were 1.6, 3.3, 5.3 and $5.7mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively. In July, average concentrations of BOD and COD were 2.4 and $3.9mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively, showing these values were higher than other months. Average concentrations of TOC in April, July and October were 4.8, 7.4 and $4.8mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively. This suggested that the highest value of TOC was in July. Average decomposition efficiencies for BOD-C/TOC and COD-C/TOC were 11.4 and 23.9%, respectively. Correlation coefficient of TOC and DOC was higher by 0.995, whereas that of TOC and COD was lower by 0.763. Especially, TOC and DOC were highly related than others.

The considerations for remaining life of ACSR (Aluminum Stranded Conductors Steel Reinforced) in transmission lines have become gradually important to hold reliability and stability of power supply. The remaining life of ACSR exposed to the atmosphere for a long period may rely on deterioration caused by environmental indices such as atmospheric corrosion, galvanic corrosion, crevice corrosion and fatigue corrosion. One of reduction of useful life in overhead transmission lines built on the ridge of mountain is often caused by forest fires.This paper deals with investigation of strength deterioration performance of ASCR due to fires through several testing and analyzing data for tension load and extension of blazed ACSR. Test samples are ACSR 480[$\textrm{mm}^2$] conductors, which are artificially fired to regular durations. Mechanical properties such as tension load and extension for fired ACSR conductors are tested and estimation functions for mechanical performances corresponding to fire duration are determined. As a result, it can be verified that both tension load and extension of ACSR are reduced by increasing fire duration. Hence, it is obvious that ACSR due to forest fires may lead to mechanical deterioration.

In order to extend the shelf-life of red chili pepper, MA and CA technology were used. In MA storage, red chili peppers(Jinmi and Jangkun) were packaged in 0.03 mm PE film bags(3 kg/bag) having two holes(${\sigma}$2~3 cm) at 2~3$^{\circ}$C or 7~8$^{\circ}$C. In CA storage, red chili peppers(Jinmi) were stored on following gas composition; 5 or 10% CO$_2$ in combination with 2 or 5% O$_2$ at 2~3$^{\circ}$C, respectively. The changes of weight loss and decay rates during MA storage were less in Jinmi than in Jangkun and less at 2~3$^{\circ}$C storage(except O$_2$ 5%, CO$_2$ 10% condition) while in CA it decreased after 40 days of storage. Red chili peppers would be stored for 30 days when stored in MA conditions(0.03 mm PE film bag) and for 60 days when srored in CA condition on O$_2$ 2%, CO$_2$ 10% based on overall quality of sensory evaluation.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the social perceptions toward the society from the new generation undergraduate students. The questionnaire consisted of the general backgrounds to respondents, the satisfaction on their living domain, the characteristics of new generation students, the attitude for the life and the occupation, the perspectives of life achievement, the viewpoint of the society, and the attitude toward the religion, the selected self, and 7 items for the social common opinion. The validity and the reliability of questionnaire were accepted to considerable extent through pre-test. The data obtained from the students of the selected universities were analyzed by SPSSWIN 6.0, and the statistical techniques used for this study were ANOVA, $Crosstabs(x^2\;test)$, t-test, frequencies, and percentage. The results were as follows : 1) The new generation undergraduate students had the higher satisfaction on the family and the relationship of friends than on the campus life, the self, and the society. 2) There was some negative image on the old generations and the new generations by the respondents. 3) Their objectives of the life were not obtaining the reputation and the higher positions but get the economic wealth for enjoying their life.

This research was carried out to provide the basic informations for the study of the occupational socialization process of rural development workers. Until now in a study of rural development workers, the study about the socialization process, which is to study the whole change during the life, has not been sufficient. The occupational socialization process of rural development workers may be considered both a process from life as a pre-rural development workers to life as a rural development worker and a process of retirement or resigination as a rural development worker. The socialization process of rural development workers in general is presumed as the five steps. Each theme word corresponding to the cultural characters in each step is as following. (1) Expectation toward Uncertainty: Step before Life of Employing (2) Extra-Passion and Trial and Error: Step for Adapting the Working Life (3) Swimming: Step of Dissension and Desperation (4) Sinking or Avoiding Dissension: Step of Stability and Stagnation (5) Emptying a Lonely Mind: Step of Professional Inactivity and Retirement The five steps appear mixedly and irregularly. At each step, rural development workers can feel the sense of fruitage and dignity (a naive compensatory mind) despite appearance intermittent and unclear.

The aim of this research is to delineate how daily living activities, depression, self-respect, and social activity participation affects the life satisfaction of the rural elderly. The subjects of the research were elderly over-65-year-olds living in Yeoju, Gyeonggido and conducted from November 15 to November 30, 2009. The sampling method was convenience sampling among non-probability sampling, a total of 339 were used as analysis data. The collected data were then put through-frequency analysis, correlation analysis, simple regression analysis, analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis, and feasibility verification through SPSS SAS 9.1.3 program. As a result of hypothesis verification, daily living activities have a positive influence over life satisfaction. And the higher the elderly's self-respect, the greater their life satisfaction, and it was verified that depending on social activity participation, there is a difference in their life satisfaction. The purpose of this study is to verify and carry out action plan and ital.

The lack of close working relationship between agricultural research, extension organizations and farmers, is one of the most difficult problems confronting agricultural technology system. Systems approach is an effective method to use in indentifying lingkage problems in agricultural technology system, and it is a problem-solving methodology. There are two basic types of linkage mechanisms; organizational and managerial. Organizational mechanisms involve the structural modification of the research and extension organizations involved in an agricultural technology system. The other major type of lingkage mechanisms involves a range of managerial interventions such as joint planning and review activities, collaborative program activities, and resource allocation procedures, etc.
