This study was carried out to investigate the effects of floral inhibition of Angelica gigas NAKAI in the hilly altitude located in the Northern Gyeongbuk Province from Feb. 1992 to 1994. The results obtained were as follows: As the cultivated areas are high, rate of bolting was significantly decreased, having high yield, good growth, and medicinal quality. It is considered that the optimal cultivating area was at least above 600m altitude. In the hilly altitude, the more shorten nursery period was, the more decreased rate of bolting was, it results in decreased yield, having no significant differences in contents such as extract and decursin. In bolting response from temperature treatment of the seedlings, treatment of temperature was significantly decreased floral induction, but rate of establishment was decreased by decayed root. Bolting rate at different organic resources has more reduced in single fertilization than that of in organic application, but among organic resources, compost of rice straw has the lowest bolting rate. As a result, yield and medicinal qualities at various organic resources were increased in application of organic resources which was no considerable tendency among organic resources.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of temperature and daylength on the bolting of Angelica gigas Nakai for decreasing the rate of bolting.Seedlings were transplanted on early December to the PVC pot(1 /1000) in the greenhouse con­trolled the temperature of 15, 20 and $25^{\circ}C$, and the daylength of 8, 12, and 16hrs. Growth of aerial parts, bolting rate and root characteristics of A. gigas were investigated. Seedlings of A. gigas untreated with low temperature were nomally emerged, bolted and flowered in maturing stage. In this results, it was assumed that A. gigas was low sensitive to low temperature. The early growth stage was good at $20^{\circ}C\;and\;25^{\circ}C$, but the late growth was effective at $15^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$. The bolting rate was the highest at $20^{\circ}C$ while the root weight was the lowest. Although the bolting rate was high at $15^{\circ}C$, the yield was increased by the delay of bolting and flowering stage. The bolting rate was increased in the longer daylength and showed more sensitive to the daylength condition than to the temperature. Thus, A. gigas cultivated in gully field with cool temperature or under the shading light could be reduced could the bolting rate.
