미국의 농업경영, 특히 축산업으로 인한 잠재적인 환경피해는 많은 우려를 낳고 있다. 축산업간에도 종별로 생산과정과 축산폐수관리 과정 등이 다르고 특히 각기 다른 산업별 구조변화로 환경정책의 영향은 각각 다를 것이다. 비육우의 경우 전통적으로 강한 주들이 지금도 주요한 생산지이지만 양돈의 경우에는 규모별 입지가 급격히 변해왔고 이 과정에서 환경정책에 대한 반영이 비육우의 경우보다 더욱 능동적이었을 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구는 이 같은 가정 하에 양돈업이 축산규제로부터 더 강한 영향을 받을 뿐 아니라 더 많은 영향을 줄 것이라는 가설을 세웠다. 결과를 보면 주 정부의 집행의사가 없는 규제정책은 큰 효율성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 집행의지는 상당한 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었다. 그러나 양돈업과 같이 내부적인 구조변화가 심하게 진행되고 있는 경우가 양돈업의 규모와 입지선정에 보다 민감함을 보였다. 환경순응비는 전체 생산비 중 극히 일부분에 불과하다. 따라서 육우산업의 경우에는 높은 고정비 때문에 환경순응에 상대적으로 덜 민감한 반면 양돈업의 경우에는 구조변화 과정에서 환경순응비를 고려한 위치와 규모를 민감하게 반영하고 있는 것으로 판단된다. 미국의 많은 주들이 양돈을 대상으로 한 새로운 규제를 시행하고 있는 점도 이를 시사하는 것이다.

Shrimp farming is the most important mariculture industry on the west coast of South Korea. However, it has suffered from mass mortality due to viral disease outbreaks and coastal pollution due to water discharge. This study developed an intensive shrimp culture method for outdoor ponds, without water exchange, which minimizes the chance of viral transmission from the environment, reduces coastal pollution by water discharge and enhances shrimp production. A culture trial was conducted in two high-density polyethylene (HDPE)-lined ponds with a $550\;m^2$ surface area. The ponds were stocked with postlarvae of Litopenaeus vannamei, the major farmed shrimp species in Korea, on July 10, 2007, and cultured for 90 days with no water exchange. The stocking density of the postlarvae (B.W. 0.0015 g) was $272\;ind./m^2$, which is eight times higher than in traditional pond culture in Korea. At harvest, the total production of ponds 1 and 2 was 1,362kg ($2.48\;kg/m^2$) and 1,282 kg ($2.33\;kg/m^2$), respectively. This is 20~22 times higher than the mean farmed shrimp production ($0.112\;kg/m^2$) in Korea and about eight times higher than in traditional ponds with a good harvest. Although there was no water exchange throughout the culture period, the mean concentrations of unionized ammonia and nitrite-nitrogen were as low as 0.038 and 6.0 mg/L, respectively. The feed conversion rate (FCR) was 1.38, which is 20~45% lower than that of traditional pond cultures. The high efficiency of the diet in this study is thought to be due to a well-managed feeding strategy and well-developed bioflocs used as diet additions for the shrimp. The final body weight of the shrimp at harvest was low (12.2~12.5 g), compared with that of traditional pond culture. This may have resulted from the combination of a short culture period, high density of shrimp, and low temperature. This study suggests that a super-intensive shrimp pond culture method using biofloc technology with no water exchange can minimize viral transmission via water exchange, reduce coastal pollution, and enhance shrimp production.

Forage diets provide good quality carcasses in sheep but very little is known in tropical goats. An experiment was designed with Creole male goats using grass-based systems to assess carcass yield, scores, cuts and composition. After weaning (84 d, 9.2 kg LW) two modes of forage feeding were compared with two replicates of each. Feeding groups were: PF for animals reared at pasture (n = 62) and IF when reared indoors (n = 60). Given that forage finishing will result in low ADG it appeared necessary to study different fattening lengths. The kids were equally divided into 4 groups: group A (n = 32), 4mo after weaning; group B (n = 32), 4mo after A; group C (n = 30), 3mo after B and group D (n = 28), 2mo after C. The animals grazed (in two sub-flocks) on irrigated tropical pastures managed in a rotational system (28 d of re-growth) at a mean stocking rate of 1,200 kg/ha/yr LW. The IF groups were reared in collective pens on a slatted floor (2 replicates of 7 or 8 kids each). They were fed the same stand of tropical grass (25% DM, 12% CP) as that of pasture that was cut daily and provided ad libitum. The ADG (-10%), the weights of omental fat (-60%) and fat in shoulder (-18%), the ultimate pH of carcass (-12%), the meat colour score (-24%), the ""parameter accounting for redness (12%) and the DM and lipid contents (-4%) were significantly lower (p<0.05) in PF than in IF, while the liver was heavier (+23%, p<0.05). Feeding conditions seemed to be similar, thus, differences could be related to gastrointestinal parasitism in the PF system and hypotheses are discussed. Increasing the fattening duration, resulted in significant difference (p<0.01) in many traits: the weights at slaughter and of carcass increased by 40% and 60% from groups A to D and consequently the weights of body compartments and carcass cuts (1.5 to 2.0 fold more). When the results were presented as percentage of empty body weight and carcass weight, these preliminary results (carcass weight 9kg and yield 53%, muscle proportion 70%) and qualitative parameters (low fat score 2/5, fat proportion 5%), seem to be a good incentive for the sector to develop a niche market to meet consumer lean meat expectations. The indoors system could be implemented where there was low availability of grazing areas or problems of dog attacks.

An experiment was conducted in twelve 0.02-ha rain-fed earthen ponds for 18 weeks to evaluate the effects of including pangasiid catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus) in polycultures of major Indian carps, catla (Catla catla), rohu (Labeo rohita), and mrigal (Cirrhinus cirrhosus), on yield and economic gain. Treatment 1 ($T_1$) consisted of 5,000 catla+2,500 rohu+2,500 mrigal per ha, treatment 2 ($T_2$) consisted of 5,000 catla+2,500 rohu+2,500 mrigal+2,500 pangasiid catfish per ha, treatment 3 ($T_3$) consisted of 5,000 catla+2,500 rohu+2,500 mrigal+5,000 pangasiid catfish per ha, and treatment 4 ($T_4$) consisted of 5,000 catla+2,500 rohu+2,500 mrigal+7,500 pangasiid catfish per ha. The growth performance of fishes was evaluated by calculating specific growth rate, daily weight gain, and percent weight gain. Inclusion of pangasiid catfish in the carp polyculture resulted in significant increases in the growth and yield of catla and rohu. Catla and rohu grew most in $T_4$, with 7,500/ha of pangasiid catfish. The presence of pangasiid catfish did not influence the growth of mrigal. The growth of pangasiid catfish varied with stocking density, and they grew best at 5,000/ha ($T_3$). The carp and the combined fish yields were significantly higher in the carp polycultures with pangasiid catfish than with carps alone. The total carp and the combined fish yields were highest in $T_4$, in which the density of pangasiid catfish was greatest. However, the total carp and the combined fish yields in $T_3$ and $T_4$ were not significantly different. Profit differed significantly among treatments. Economic gain was highest in $T_3$, with 5,000/ha of pangasiid catfish, and lowest in $T_1$. The inclusion of pangasiid catfish in major carp polycultures results in higher fish yields and greater economic gain.

We reviewed previous studies on well-performing aquaculture facilities, rearing environment, breeding management and feed supply to find the optimal conditions of the abalone aquaculture in marine cage. The size of marine cage varied depending on local area where the abalone farms are located. The small size cage ($2.4{\times}2.4{\times}2.5$ m) was used in Wando, Jindo and Hanam area where much of the provincial's abalone production is conducted and the middle size cage ($2.4{\times}4.8{\times}2.5$ m) was used in Huksando area. Big size group, above 2 cm in shell length, was produced from the end of October to the middle of November and small size group, below 2 cm in shell length, was produced from the end of March to the beginning of April next year in case of juvenile abalone of land production. The initial stocking density was 517-1,653 individuals/culture square meter($m^2$) in case of the big size group. The optimal rearing density was 326 and 263 individuals/culture square meter ($m^2$) after 1 year and 2 year's rearing, respectively. It is shown that relationship between individual shell length (x) and rearing density (y) is estimated to be $y=2,803.1x^{-1.4641}$ ($r^2=0.9687$). In addition, The obvious relationship was indicated between number of cage (x) and sea weed production facilities (y) as y=1.1542x+10.832 ($r^2=0.918$) in Wando, because sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida) or japanese tangle (Laminaria japonica) was supplied as a feed for abalone culture. The general pattern of relationship between shell length (x) and shell weight (y) of cultured abalone is estimated to be $y=0.1443x^{2.9461}$ ($r^2=0.9997$).

중부지방 낙엽송 조림지에 대하여 식재후 적정한 1차 간벌 시기를 추정하기 위하여 충북대학교 부속 연습림(월악산)을 대상으로 연구한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 충북대학교 부속 연습림내에 조림된 낙엽송의 수고곡선식은 H=4.25783+0.80024D(H=수고, D=흉고직경)이었다. (2) 본 연구대상지의 재적식을 구하기 위해 최소제곱법으로 회귀분석을 한 결과, 수고와 흉고 직경을 모두 독립변수로 하는 경우 재적식은 V=0.001474-0.002095D-0.000211H+0.000150D·H+0.000744D²+0.000008H²(V=재적(㎥), H=수고(m), D=흉고직경(cm)) 이었다. 한편, 재적에 대하여 흉고직경만을 독립변수로 한 경우는 V=0.000079-0.000512D+0.000826D²이었다. (3) 간벌시기 추정을 위한 기준으로는 수고 MAI의 극대점을 이루는 연령과 고사목에서 총 흉고직경 생장량의 평균치 이하로 떨어지는 시점의 연령이 적절한 것으로 판단된다. (4) 수고 MAI의 극대점에 도달하는 연령은 임분밀도와 유의성 있는 상관을 보이지 않아 정확한 간벌시기의 판단기준으로 삼을 수 없었다 (5) 간벌시기를 결정하는 추정식은 고사목의 흉고직경생장량의 경년변화를 토대로 계산하였으며, 그 결과식은 Y=0.2825+0.01752X 이었다. (6) 관행적인 1.8m×l.8m의 식재밀도가 적용된 낙엽송 조림지에서 간벌 개시 임령은 12∼14년이 적당한 것으로 나타났다.

수심이 얕은 부영양호수에서 우점하는 식물플랑크톤에 대한 1년생 백련어의 섭식특성을 조사하고자, 1997년 5월 23일부터 9월 18일까지 호수의 연안에 4개의 enclosure를 설치하고, 어류투입 이후의 각 enclosure수중과 어류의 장 내용물 중의 식물플랑크톤 군집의 변화를 비교하였다. 조사기간동안 각 enclosure의 수온, 플랑크톤의 총생물량, 어류 아가미의 여과공 등은 시간에 따라 른 변화가 없었으며, 어류성장은 주로 투입된 어류의 밀도에 의존되었다. 어류의 내용물에 의하면, 저밀도 투입 enclosure에서 수중과 어류 전장간의 플랑크톤군집의 유사도가 높게 나타났으며(p<0.05), 전체적으로 모든 enclosure에서 크기가 큰(>$100,000{\mu}m^3$) 식물플랑크톤-Oscillatoria, Anabaena, Melosira등은 어류투입이후 크게 감소되지 않았다. 어류의 먹이선택지수(${\alpha}$)와 플랑크톤의 크기 (Ingestion unit)사이에도 매우 낮은 상관성을 보였다(r = 0.001, p>0.5). 식물플랑크톤의 분석결과, 백연은 남조나 녹조에 비해 규조를 더 선호하였는데, 이는 규조의 세포벽이 다른 조류에 비해 소화과정동안 쉽게 파괴되지 않고, 저배율의 현미경적시야에서도 간단히 확인된다는 점 등,선택지수를 과대평가하게 되는 단점이 있기 때문에 백련어의 먹이습성에 대한 방법론적 개선이 필요하다고 판단된다.

In Guadeloupe small ruminants (SR) are reared for meat production under pasture conditions. Intensive rotational grazing systems (irrigated, fertilised and high stocked) allow reasonable levels of production but generate high post-grazing residues. Experiments were designed to control them. A system in which residuals were mown (RM) was tested in comparison to the control system (Residuals Remained, RR). The same design was carried out for two years with Creole goat (G) and Martinik sheep (S). An accelerated reproductive rate (3 parturitions over 2 years) was carried out. Systems were compared at three parturition seasons per year(dry, intermediate and rainy seasons). Each group was composed of 20 goats ($36.0{\pm}2.5kg$) or 20 ewes ($46.8{\pm}2.4kg$). The female body traits did not vary according to pasture management and seasons. The stocking rate averaged 1,400 kg LW/ha. The mean fertility rate for does varied significantly (p<0.05) within the kidding season, from $80.4{\pm}0.5%$ to $93.7{\pm}2.9%$ while the mean litter size was $2.30{\pm}0.07$ total kids born. No effect of pasture system was observed. Corresponding values for ewes were $83.2{\pm}12.8%$ vs. $75.6{\pm}12.5%$ (p<0.05) and $2.43{\pm}0.24$ vs. $2.03{\pm}0.29$ (p<0.01) total lambs born for SRM and SRR ewes, respectively. A seasonal effect was observed upon ewe performances. The preweaning mortality of kids and lambs averaged 16.3% and 14.4%, respectively. It was 7 and 9 percentage points more (p<0.01) for RR than for RM kids and lambs, respectively. For both species, weaning took place at an average age of $81.4{\pm}3.6days$. In Creole kids, live weight at birth and at weaning were $1.9{\pm}0.2kg$ and $8.9{\pm}0.8kg$, respectively. In the Martinik sheep, the traits averaged $2.9{\pm}0.2kg$ and $18.9{\pm}0.9kg$. For both traits in both species, significant (p<0.05) group${\times}$season interactions were recorded. The consequences of elimination of post-grazing residues varied according to the SR species, the environmental conditions and the animal physiological status. The forage characteristics were not limiting factors since forage availability in the RM systems (2,300 and 2,600 kg DM/ha, respectively) and chemical composition were at satisfactory levels (CP content averaged 12 and 10%). It is recommended to develop new grazing system which would allow the use of post-grazing residues instead of mowing the refusals.
