This study was carried out to compare the grain quality under lodging time and grade at ripening. Ripened grain ratio and 1000-grain weight were higher with lodging of plants at $45^{\circ}$ angle from the ground and increased with crop development. The number of spikelets, as well as the protein and amylose content of the grains, were higher in plants under severe or complete lodging than those under lodging at $45^{\circ}$ angle from the ground. Palatability and sensory evaluation values were higher in plants under lodging at $45^{\circ}C$ angle from the ground than those under complete lodging. Brown rice: rough rice ratio was higher with lodging of plants at $45^{\circ}C$ angle from the ground and increased with crop growth. Milling recovery and milled rice recovery were higher with lodging of plants at $45^{\circ}C$ angle from the ground, whereas chalky grain, cracked grain and damage grains were higher at complete lodging.

Residues of neoasozine in rice grain were determined by neutron activation and colorimetric techniques. Twice application of the chemical before flowering did not lead to any increased residue level while 4-times application resulted in significant increase in the residue level up to 0.54-0.75 mg $As_2O_3/kg$. The partition ratio of arsenic residues into polished rice grain and bran was 73 : 27 in 100% polishing while most of the residues in the bran was transferred to oil cake fraction during solvent extraction, reaching up to 2.9 mg $As_2O_3/kg$. The neutron activation technique was advantageous because of its high sensitivity and the smaller sample amounts required for analysis.

The excellence of pigmented rice with respect to its nutritional composition was proven and the physicochemical properties of five kinds of rice (Jindo black rice, Jindo jeongmi, Boseong black rice, red rice, and green rice) were compared. The crude protein content of black rice harvested in Boseong (10.15%) were higher than that of the other varieties. The crude fat contents of pigmented rice (black, red, and green) were higher than those of polished rice (Jindo-jeongmi and black rice). Boseong black rice had the highest crude fat content. The major free sugar types in the rice varieties were maltose and glucose. The major mineral contents of the unpolished rice (pigmented rice) varieties were as follows: of P, 361.32~570.11 mg%; K, 196.63~210.04 mg%; Mg, 104.11~128.02 mg%; Na, 2.49~8.14 mg%; and Ca, 12.10~16.82 mg%. The major fatty acids in the five kinds of rice were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid. The fatty acid contents of the rice varieties did not differ significantly. The black rice (Boseong) had a higher amino acid content than the other varieties. The hunter color values of rice varieties were affected by the colors of tha samples. The L (lightness) value of black rice (Jindo, Boseong) was lower than that of the other samples. The thiamine and riboflavin contents of the red rice (0.48 mg/100 g and 0.14 mg/100 g, respectively) were higher than those of the other varieties (thiamine: 0.36~0.24 mg/100 g and riboflavin: 0.09~0.06 mg/100 g). The hardness of the rice varieties differed significantly (10.75~14.64 kg).

The survey on the chitinolytic activity of some plants was performed for the purpose of obtaining some reliable and inexpensive sources of chitinase. Rice, soybean for sprouting, kiwi fruit, almond and crude papain were investigated. Rice bran, seed coat of the soybean and the pericarp of kiwi fruit showed a considerable activity, while the bean after the removal of the seed coat, the mixture of rice integument and endosperm, polished rice, and defatted soybean powder didn't have any detectable activity. These crude enzymes have shown to contain both endo- and exochitinase activity. The effects of pH and temperature on the enzyme activity were variable. Furthermore we have observed the chitosanolytic activity from these enzyme Preparations. The rice bran had the highest activity in the enzymatic degradation of chitosan, and seed coat of soybean and the pericarp of kiwi fruit followed. On the basis of the fact that crude papain was not only commercially available but also the most potent in the endochitinase activity and the lowest in the exochitinase activity, we could conclude that crude papain was considered as the most suitable source of the chitinase among plants studied in this paper. In addition, rice bran was worth further investigation from the point of utilizing agricultural by-product.

To understand the relative contribution of varietal and environmental variation on various grain quality components in rice, grain appearance, milling recovery, several physicochemical properties of rice grain and texture or palatability of cooked rice for milled rice materials of seven cultivars(five japonica & two Tongil-type), produced at six locations of the middle and southern plain area of Korea in 1989, were evaluated and analyzed the obtained data. Highly significant varietal variations were detected in all grain quality components of the rice materials and marked locational variations with about 14-54% portion of total variation were recognized in grain appearance, milling recovery, alkali digestibility, protein content, K /Mg ratio, gelatinization temperature, breakdown and setback viscosities. Variations of variety x location interaction were especially large in overall palatability score of cooked rice and consistency or set- back viscosities of amylograph. Tongil-type cultivars showed poor marketing quality, lower milling recovery, slightly lower alkali digestibility and amylose content, a little higher protein content and K /Mg ratio, relatively higher peak, breakdown and consistency viscosities, significantly lower setback viscosity, and more undesirable palatability of cooked rice compared with japonica rices. The japonica rice varieties possessing good palatability of cooked rice were slightly low in protein content and a little high in K /Mg ratio and stickiness /hardness ratio of cooked rice. Rice 1000-kernel weight was significantly heavier in rice materials produced in Iri lowland compared with other locations. Milling recovery from rough to brown rice and ripening quality were lowest in Milyang late-planted rice while highest in Iri lowland and Gyehwa reclaimed-land rice. Amylose content of milled rice was about 1% lower in Gyehwa rice compared with other locations. Protein content of polished rice was about 1% lower in rice materials of middle plain area than those of southern plain regions. K/Mg ratio of milled rice was lowest in Iri rice while highest in Milyang rice. Alkali digestibility was highest in Milyang rice while lowest in Honam plain rice, but the temperature of gelatinization initiation of rice flour in amylograph was lowest in Suwon and Iri rices while highest in Milyang rice. Breakdown viscosity was lowest in Milyang rice and next lower in Ichon lowland rice while highest in Gyehwa and Iri rices, and setback viscosity was the contrary tendency. The stickiness/hardness ratio of cooked rice was slightly lower in southern-plain rices than in middle-plain ones, and the palatability of cooked rice was best in Namyang reclaimed-land rice and next better with the order of Suwon$\geq$Iri$\geq$Ichon$\geq$Gyehwa$\geq$Milyang rices. The rice materials can be classified genotypically into two ecotypes of japonica and Tongil-type rice groups, and environmentally into three regions of Milyang, middle and Honam lowland by the distribution on the plane of 1st and 2nd principal components contracted from eleven grain quality properties closely associated with palatability of cooked rice by principal component analysis.

We have researched the changes in nutrient content in each phase of fermentation in crops treated with liquefied pig fertilizer, and have determined the best method for applying livestock excrement to cultured crops. In the execution of this experiment, rice was cultivated to full maturity at a paddy field in Jeollabuk-Do Agriculture Research and Extension Services(Jeon-buk series) from 2007 to 2008. The rice plant nitrogen absorption quantity change, according to the growth stages of the cultivated rice, was 20.3% in the rice treated with the liquid pig manure and 22.2% the chemical fertilizer at highest congelation. The chemical fertilizer showed a higher absorption quantity than the liquid manure compost. The nitrogen density at highest congelation was 1.5% in the chemical fertilizer, and 1.8% in the pig manure liquid compost not a significant difference. The stem height at harvest time was 73.8 cm in the crops treated with the liquid pig manure compost. Those treated with the chemical fertilizer, yielded a height of 4.2 cm less than the crops treated with the liquid pig manure compost. The yield was 507 kg/10a in the liquid pig manure compost treated rice, compared with the chemical fertilizer, which showed a value of 1.2% lower. The protein content was 6.3% in the rice treated with the chemical fertilizer, but 6.4% in the rice treated with the liquid pig manure compost. This is not a significant difference. However, the lodging rice plant treated with the chemical fertilizer control showed a protein content of 6.8%, which was even higher than the normal rice. The head rice ratio in the brown rice and the polished rice ended up to be lower in the crop treated with the liquid pig manure than that treated with the chemical fertilizer, Quality, the palatability value, was similar in both groups. The above result indicate that, the effect of liquid pig manure compost corresponds to the effect of chemical fertilizer, when each are scattered uniformly.

The physicochemical properties of brown rice flours produced under different drying and milling conditions were investigated. Moisture contents of hot-air dried, microwave dried and zet-milled brown rice flours (BrWZH) were 10.7%,13.7% and 8.0%-8.6%, respectively. Water absorption indices (WAI) and water soluble indices (WSI) of roll-milled brown rice flours (BrWRH) were lower (0.40-0.59 g/g; 0.7-3.0%) than those of zet-milled brown rice flours (0.58-0.79 g/g; 4.0-7.3%). Zet-milled brown rice flours had higher Hunter L values and more damaged starch (94.1-96.8; 28.2%) compared to roll-milled brown rice flours (91.3-91.9: 15.5%). The percentage of damaged starch and L values of brown rice flours increased as particle size of brown rice flours decreased. Roll-milled polished rice flour (Control) had the highest L value and lowest amount of damaged starch (97.1; 8.2%). Control, BrWRH, BrWZH, and ultrafine brown rice flour (HBrZMU) had peak viscosity values of 321, 255, 221, and 162 RVU, respectively and trough viscosity values of 217, 185, 175, and 113 RVU, respectively. Peak and trough viscosity (Rapid Visco Analyzer; RVA) properties of rice floors decreased as the particle size of rice flours decreased. HBrZMU demonstrated a higher onset temperature $(61.1^{\circ}C)$ compared to control $(54.8^{\circ}C)$ by differential scanning calorimetric (DSC). Crystal melting enthalpy $({\Delta}H)$ of control and brown rice flours were 10.4 J/g and 6.1-8.7 J/g, respectively. Results of this study suggested that physicochemical properties of brown rice flours were closely related to their particle size.

The purpose of this research was to prove the excellency of unpolished (brown) rice with respect to nutritional composition and to compare chemical composition among six varieties of rice. Some nutritional composition in the Polished (well -milled) rice and unpolished (brown) rice of the six typical Korean varieties (Chucheong, Hwasung, Odae, Ilmi, Dongjin, Ilpum) were determined. Most of nutrients in the brown rice were much greater than those in the milled rice and there was significant difference among rice varieties in some chemical compositions. The major minerals of milled rices were Ca, 6～15 mg%;P, 91～125mg%;Fe, 0.3～1.2mg%; Na, 10～14mg%;K, 106～205 mg%; Zn, 1.0～1.8mg%; and Mg, 32～58 mg%. The mineral contents of brown rices wre Ca, 4～11mg%;P, 92～286mg%;Fe, 1.3～1.9mg%;Na, 12～15mg%;K, 243～320mg%;Zn, 1.5～2.3mg%;Mg, 112～140mg%. Major fatty acids in six rice varieties were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid, which comprised of about 93% of total fatty acid. Amino acid analysis showed that aspartic acid, glutamic acid, arginine and leucine were major amino acids, whereas histidine, threonine and tryptophan were minor ones of rice. Most ammo acid contents was higher in Ilmi than the other varieties. The contents of vitamin in brown rices were considerably higher than those in well-milled rice. There was not significant difference in total dietary fiber among rice varieties : 1.1～1.2% for milled rice,3.2～3.5% for brown rice.

Physicochemical properties of black rice flours (BRFs) produced under different milling conditions were investigated to explore their applications for various processed rice products. Moisture contents of BRFs after roll milling and subsequent hot-air drying or microwave drying were 10.3% and 14.4%, respectively. The BRFs with jet milling and subsequent hot-air drying or microwave drying showed moisture contents of 7.9% and 7.5%. Mean particle sizes of the BRFs obtained from roll milling, jet milling, and following air-classification were 150, 41.5, and 9.4 ${\mu}m$, respectively. Hunter L value and water soluble index (WSI) of BRFs increased with decreasing particle size, while Hunter a value decreased. Total polyphenol contents of 91.4-115.8 mg/100 g and total amino acids of 75.0-96.4 mg/100 g in three types of BRFs were higher as compared to those (6.3 mg/100 g and 30.5 mg/100 g) of polished rice flour (PRF). Physicochemical properties such as moisture content, color parameter, and WSI have close relationship with the particle size of BRFs prepared under different milling conditions.
