방제 작업은 병해충을 줄여 농산물의 품질과 생산량을 높이기 위한 필수 작업이다. 하지만 방제 작업은 고온 다습한 환경에서 작업하여 고된 작업 강도와 농민의 농약 중독 문제, 고령화 여성화로 인한 농가 일손 부족 문제로 농촌에서는 기피하고 있는 작업 중 하나이다. 이러한 점을 보완하기 위해 동력 살포기와 같은 기계를 이용하여 살포 작업을 실시하고 있으며, 스피드 스프레이어의 경우 2015년 기준 2,073 대가 농가에 공급되어졌다. 스피드 스프레이어를 사용하는 농가는 점차 증가하고 있으나, 현재 스피드 스프레이어의 살포 방식의 경우 농약을 다량 살포함으로써, 농약의 낭비, 환경오염의 문제점이 나타나고 있다. 이러한 점을 보완하기 위해 최근에는 방제 작업의 방식이 붐을 이용한 방제 작업으로 바뀌어가고 있는 추세이다. 붐 방제기의 경우 붐에 노즐을 배치하여 작물에 근접한 위치에서 농약을 정밀 살포하며, 스피드 스프레이어와 다르게 농약의 낭비를 줄일 수 있으며, 농약의 살포량을 제어하기 쉬운 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 트랙터 부착형 붐 방제기가 아닌 스피드 스프레이어를 개선한 붐식 스피드 스프레이어를 개발하기 위하여 현재 사용되고 있는 붐 방제기의 연구 동향 및 제품을 소개하고 개발에 필요한 기초 자료로 활용하고자 한다. 기존의 붐 방제기는 트랙터에 부착하는 형태로 개발되어졌으며 트랙터의 부착위치에 따라 전륜, 후륜형으로 나뉘고, 작물의 크기에 따라서 붐의 높이 및 붐의 각도를 조절하는 구조로 제작하여 사용되고 있다.

Spraying method from the paddy-field levee is known to give insufficient penetration of the spray droplets to the rice stem of the densely grown plants, which is generally encountered at the last stage of rice growth. This study was intended to investigate the spraying system to solve this existing problem. As an approach, it was attempted to develop the boom-with-nozzle, between-the-row application system. Several types of nozzles and their different arrangements in the boom were tested in the field to measure the penetration-reaching distance and the uniformity of spray droplet distribution. The results of the study are summarized as follows: 1. Field experiments by the spraying method from the paddy-field levee showed to have practically no penetration of the spray droplets to the portion of the plant stem with the normal flow volume generally applied and thus need for improving present spraying method. 2. It was found that, considering both the uniformity of the spray droplet distribution and performance rate, the most efficient type of nozzle in the between-the-row boom-type spraying system was one that has core-insert hollow-cone with some clearance between the cone and tip. 3. When tested by applying the spraying method of between-the-row, the nozzle pressure did not affect the uniformity of spray droplet distribution. However, the nozzle pressure had a positive effect on the penetrating-reaching distance of the facing side of the rice stem and did not affect much on that of the opposite face of the stem. It was also found that the maximum pressure to affect the penetration-reaching distance was about $10kg/cm^2$. 4. The uniformity of the spray droplet distribution in the between-the-row system was greatly affected by the height and orientation of the nozzles in the boom. Based on experimental work for the different type of the boom-with-nozzle arrangements, it is recommended that the position of nozzle is set at about 0.45 m above the ground and two nozzles in the boom are oriented to be faced with each other with some angle such that the droplet stream from the nozzle would not directly face with each other.

우리나라의 방제작업은 주로 소형 동력분무기를 이용한 것으로서 총포형 노즐을 사용한다. 그러나 이 방법은 농약의 살포량 조절이 어렵고 불균일한 살포로 방제효과가 높지 못하여 개선이 요구된다. 또한 필요량보다 많이 뿌려 흘러내릴 정도로 살포하므로 환경에 악영향을 미칠 가능성이 높고, 농산물 안정성에도 불신을 초래하고 있다. 붐방제기는 이런 요구에 부응하는 대체 방제기계이지만, 우리나라에서는 수도작용을 중심으로 보급되었다. (중략)

붐방제기는 분무관에 일정한 간격으로 노즐이 설치되어 있으며 목표물 바로 위에서 농약을 직접 살포할 수 있다. 따라서 비산의 위험성이 적고 작업폭이 넓기 때문에 포장능률도 높은 장점이 있다. 또한 방제작업에 영향을 미치는 방제속도, 살포폭, 노즐 배출량, 노즐 압력 등을 최적으로 유지할 수 있는 자동제어 시스템을 채택할 수 있어 최적량의 농약을 균일하고 유효하게 살포할 수 있다. (중략)

This study was conducted to find the design factors of spraying device of the boom sprayer for low volume application. Specific objectives of this study were 1) to select proper nozzles for broadcast spraying and row crop spraying by the nozzle spray characterisic experiment, and 2) to investigate the coverage characteristic of rice plant at the row crop spraying. The results of this study are summarized as follows. (1) From the tested results on the droplet diameter spectrum and spray pattern the standard flat-fan nozzle and drift guard nozzle were judged as appropriate for the broadcasting. Even flat-fan nozzle showed similar span values to standard flat-fan nozzles and drift guard nozzle : however, the nozzles were found to be inappropriate for broadcasting because of their spray pattern. Hollow cone nozzle showed relatively small span values and uniform spray pattern. (2) For the upper and lower sides of the rice plants, coverage rates of even flat-fan nozzles and hollow cone nozzles were maximum at the second row, but decreased rapidly after the third row. For the middle side of the rice plants, coverage rates of them were maximum at the first row, but decreased rapidly. When one nozzle was tested, C.V. values were in the range of 90~160% and 60~160% on entire heights of rice plant for even flat-fan nozzles and hollow cone nozzles respectively. C.V. values at other parts were poor. Spray coverage rate at the middle part was improved by overlapping the nozzles whereas there was little difference on the upper and lower part of rice plants. (3) For spraying lower part of rice plant between rows, even flat-fan nozzles and hollow cone nozzle were judged as appropriate, but in order to ensure the uniform coverage, distance between nozzles, recommended to be less than 90cm.

국내에 보급된 방제기는 인력분무기, 동력 분무기, 동력 살분무기, 스피드 스프레이어, 붐방제기 등이 있다. 그 중 동력경운기에 탑재하거나 트랙터에 견인되는 동력분무기를 주축으로 기계화되어 있다. 작은 입경의 분무입자로서 가급적 적정량을 균일하게 뿌릴 때 방제효율을 높일 수 있는데도 불구하고, 동력분무기에 의한 액제 살포는 원거리 살포에 따라 분무입자의 입경 분포가 다양하며 대부분 분무입자가 매우 크므로 고른 살포를 기대하기 어렵기 때문에 약액을 1000대 1로 희석하여 흠뻑 적실 정도로 다량 살포를 하여 살포효율을 높이고 있다. 그러나 이러한 방제 방법은 효율성, 작업능률과 환경의 오염 측면에서 상당한 문제로 지적되고 있다.

Present chemical application method using a power sprayer has been labor intensive, costly and ineffective. Therefore, a small agricultural unmanned helicopter was suggested to replace the conventional spray system. In this study, conceptual design for developing the helicopter and a consequential prototype were reported. The overall conceptual design was initiated by deciding the type of agricultural helicopter, as the single rotor helicopter with a tail system. As the first step of the designing, an air-cooled, 2-stroke engine was selected and a prototype transmission was designed by determining the rotating speed of main rotor shaft. A 'pusher' type tail rotor system was adapted to balance the reaction torque and reduce the power use. The tail boom length was designed to avoid the rotating trajectory of the main rotor. The RF console consisted of the engine control, attitude control, and emergency control modules. Assembling the prototype concluded the mechanical development of the agricultural helicopter.

Chemical application, one of the most important crop management processes happened to cause spray drift, that would threaten farmers in field as well as dwellers in rural region. Spray drift was affected by micro-meteorological parameters. A study to evaluate short distance drift characteristics of a boom sprayer in paddy fields has been undergoing. This study is the first step of the research. Main purpose of the was conducted to develop a mean wind profile and to get information on turbulence intensities above and within rice canopy. Wind in rice paddy field were measured at every 10cm from 10 to 180cm above the ground using a 2-dimensional probe and a hot wire anemometer system. Main results were summarized as follows. 1. Mean wind profile was modeled as; Equations. see full-text 2. Roughness length and zero-displacement in rice canopy were analyzed to be respectively 0.04 and 0.7∼0.72 times of the canopy height. The values are smaller comparing to those of other crops because rice canopy is flexible and uniform comparing to other crops. 3. Turbulence intensities (Tl) was greater as close to the ground and became constant at heights greater than 1.5Hc. where Tl’s were 0.4 and 0.15 in horizontal and vertical direction respectively.
