벼 유기재배시 토양양분공급용으로 이용되고 있는 유기자재(금수강산골드)를 대조로 하고 식물성유기 자재(쌀겨팰렛), 동물성유기자재, 식물성과 동물성이 혼합된 유기자재를 질소 성분량(7kg/10a)을 기준으로 하여 이앙 20일전에 전량 기비로 시비하고 경운한 다음 동진1호를 시험품종으로 하여 2년연속 유기 자재와 벼를 재배하면서 일어나는 토양의 이화학적 특성과 벼 생육 및 특성의 변화를 시기별로 조사하였다. 시험 전 토양의 화학성은 전반적으로 유기물은 높고 인산함량은 매우 낮은 조건의 토양이었다. 관행유기자재(금수강산골드)는 20일경에 50% 무기화율을 보였으나, 식물성자재 40~60일경, 동물성자재와 혼합자재(식물성+동물성)는 60~80일경에 47~52% 무기화 정도를 나타내 식물성 자재의 무기화 속도가약 20일정도 빨랐다. 토양 중의 유기물 잔존함량은 식물성자재 > 혼합자재 > 동물성자재 > 관행 순이었으며, 토양 중의 전 질소 잔존함량의 경우 관행유기자재는 처리초기부터 빠르게 감소하는 특성을 보이나, 식물성자재와 혼합 자재는 시비초기와 거의 비슷한 수준을 유지하였고, 동물성 자재는 서서히 감소되는 경향이었다. 토양 물리성은 액상과 공극율 다소 증가되는 경향이었으며 식물성과 혼합유기자재처리구가 컸으며, 토양 유효 입단 형성력에 있어서도 유사한 경향이었다. 벼 수량 특성은 관행유기자재보다 1년차에는 3~9%의 낮았으나, 2년 연속처리를 할 경우 관행유기자재를 처리할 때와 동일한 생산성을 기대할 수 있었다. PME와 $\beta$-Glucosidase의 효소활성은 관행유기자재 < 식물성자재 < 동물성자재 < 혼합유기자재의 순으로 높은 경향을 볼 수 있었다.

벼 유기재배에 있어서 녹비작물을 이용하여 화학비료를 대신하고 있으나 녹비를 이용하기 위해서는 월동 전에 파종하고 이듬해 벼 이앙 전에 토양에 환원을 해야 하는 번거로움이 있다. 따라서 벼 재배 직전에 유기자재를 이용하여 화학비료를 대신하고자 했을 경우 유기자재를 전층시비와 표층시비의 차이에 따른 토양중의 이화학적 특성과 벼의 수량특성의 변화를 구명하였다. 벼 유기재배시 토양양분공급용으로 이용되고 있는 유기자재 4종을 공시하여 유기자재의 질소 성분량(7kg/10a)을 기준으로 하여 이앙 20일전에 시비방법별로 전층시비와 표층시비 2처리로 구분하여 전량 기비시비하고 경운한 다음 동진1호를 시험품종으로 하여 2년 연속 시비처리와 벼를 재배하면서 일어나는 토양의 이화학적 특성과 벼 생육 및 특성의 변화를 시기별로 조사하였다. 시험 전 토양의 화학성은 표층시비구의 염류농도, 가리와 석회의 함량이 다소 높아서 염류농도가 전층 시비구 보다 높은 조건의 토양이었다. 유기자재별 무기화 정도는 전층시비보다 표층시비를 할 때 약 20~30일 정도 빨랐다. 토양 중의유기물 잔존함량은 시비방법간의 큰 차이는 없었으나 표층시비를 할 경우 후기로 갈수록 다소 증가되는 경향이었으나, 전질소 잔존함량은 감소되었다. 토양 액상과 공극율은 전층시비>표층시비였으며, 입단 형성력도 같은 경향이었다. 토양 효소활성은 PME의 활성은 유기자재를 전층처리하였을 때 촉진되었으며, $\beta$-Glucosidase의 활성은 전층보다 표층처리시 활성이 높았다. 시비방법에 따른 벼의 수량 특성은 시비방법별로는 표층시비를 할 경우 전층시비보다 4~7%의 높은 특성을 보였으며, 관행대비 1년차에는 3~9%의 낮았으나, 2년 연속처리를 할 경우 대조구와 비슷해 지는 경향이었다.

Ocher block has started to be studied recently as a new environment friendly alternative building material. This article investigates the use of Rice Husk Ask (RHA) as an additive to improve properties of the ocher block. Ocher mixtures incorporating various proportions of RHA were compared. Compressive strength at various ages of these ocher blocks was evaluated ad the resistance to wet environment was also examined. These test result help to determine the effect of RHA on such properties of the ocher block as compaction, mix proportion, compressive strength and water absorption indexes. Based on these results, the new alternative building material and low cost construction techniques might be developed through more intensive research efforts.

The study was initiated to compare seasonal nutrient variations and rice (Oryza sativa L.) productivity in each of leading rice farm with conventionally managed and recommended fertilized of the large-scale environment-friendly agricultural districts in Jangheung, Suncheon, and Okcheon provinces in 2017. Suncheon rice experimental farm plots included a recommended fertilization plot that had been additionally sown hairy vetch in the fall of previous year, while Okcheon rice farm included a recommended fertilization plot applying half amount of the compost in the conventional plot. A Jangheung rice farm only practiced crop-livestock farming system. Soil pH and EC in all experimental plots were suitable levels for rice growth to cultivate. Seasonal soil pH from March to September was the highest for Suncheon rice farm, and seasonal soil EC was the highest for Jangheung rice farm. Seasonal soil T-N increased in all the plots from March to June in particular for Suncheon rice farm, and Jangheung rice farm had the lowest seasonal soil P. Seasonal soil K decreased in all the plots, with the lowest levels observed for Okcheon farm. Seasonal soil NH₄⁺ mostly increased by up to 90 mg/kg in Jangheung rice farm from March to June. Seasonal plant T-N, P and K concentrations were the highest for Jangheung rice farm. Seasonal plant T-N and P concentrations decreased from June to September, but K leveles were fluctuated between 2.0% and 2.5%. Seasonal SPAD value was the lowest in Suncheon conventional plot. Jangheung rice farm plot produced 6,303 kg of rice per ha, which was approximately two times higher than those of Okcheon recommended plot. The seasonal T-N, P and K balance was the highest in Okcheon conventional plot, with the lowest values observed for Suncheon conventional plot. As a result, Suncheon recommended plot showed relatively low levels of seasonal macro-nutrient balance and the highest rice production, which could be the most environmentally friendly farm practiced conducted in this study.

Component analysis and physico-chemical properties of wood and rice hull vinegars were conducted in order to promote the utilization of these environment-friendly materials. Results showed that wood vinegar had higher specific gravity (2.5) and tar content (0.3%), but lower acid content (1.0%) than rice hull vinegar (1.7, 0.05% and 4.4%, respectively). GC-MS component analysis revealed that rice vinegar had higher phenol content (34%) than wood vinegar (11.49%). Acetic acid and propionic acid were also higher in rice hull vinegar. On the contrary, wood vinegar had higher Furancarboxyl aldehyde content (41.6%) than rice hull vinegar (0.67%). Thus, different results in DPPH radical electron donating-abilities were obtained due to different percent composition of each vinegar.

Miscanthus are perennial rhizomatous grasses and considered as an ideal cellulosic bioenergy crop. Recently, it was reported that Miscanthus was damaged by the larvae of rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker, one of the most destructive pests of rice in Korea since the 1960s. This study was thus conducted to evaluate the insecticidal effects against rice stem borer in the Miscanthus cultivation fields for two years. The experiment consisted of four chemical agent plots, one environment-friendly agent plot, and untreated plot. Untreated plot showed significantly high damage of 50%, while Buprofezin Tebufenozide and Carbosulfan Methoxyfenozide treatment plots showed low damage rate of 2% with low larvae density of 1 and $2.3larvae\;m^{-2}$, respectively. Damage rates of Tebufenozide, ChlorantraniliproleIndoxacarb, and environment-friendly agent(MatrineWood vinegar solution) were 15, 26, and 18%, respectively, which were lower than that of untreated plot but higher than those of Buprofezin Tebufenozide and Carbosulfan Methoxyfenozide. In conclusion, rice insecticides were effective against rice stem borer in Miscanthus field. In particular, the treatments with Buprofezin Tebufenozide and Carbosulfan Methoxyfenozide showed excellent control effects with control value of 93.3 and 95.2. However, further studies with different types of insecticides should be carried out for the selection of insecticides with more effective control of rice stem borer.

Environment-friendly growth enhancers for rice are being promoted to reverse the negative impact of intensive chemical-based and conventional rice farming on yield sustainability and environmental problems. Several rhizosphere microorganisms and pyroligneous acids (PA) had demonstrated beneficial influence on growth, yield and grain quality of rice. Since most of the previous study had evaluated the effect of PGPR and PA on paddy rice singly, the effect of combined application of these on the growth and yield of paddy rice and on some soil chemical properties were determined. A four factorial pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of PGPR, PA in combination with fertilizers and on different soil types. There were 54 treatment combinations including the control with three replications under complete randomized design. Plant growth parameters were evaluated using standard procedures during tillering and heading stages. Rice yield and some soil chemical properties were determined at harvest. Results showed that inoculation of Bacillus licheniformis and Fusarium fujikuroi enhanced plant growth by increasing the plant height which could be ascribe to its ability to promote IAA and GA production in plants. Inoculation of Rhizobium phaseoli enhanced chlorophyll content indicative to its ability to improve the N nutrition. However, these plant growth benefits during the vegetative stage were override by the fertilizer application effect especially during the maturity stage and grain yield. High fertilization rates on coarse-textured soil without nutrient loss resulted to high available nutrients and consequently high yield. Wood vinegar application however improved nutrient availability in soil which could be beneficial for improving soil quality. Further evaluation is necessary to fully assess the potential benefits that could be derived from inoculation of these organisms and wood vinegar application in different soil environment especially under different field conditions.

The effectiveness of plant-based attractants was studied using large traps, which attracted relatively more snails in agricultural water drainage ditches and rice-cultivating environments, although their effectiveness in rice fields and lakes was limited. The rate began to rise after three hours of observation. Watermelon peel exhibited the highest apple snail attraction rate (13.8%), followed by potatoes (10.0%), and apple peel (8.8%). These values significantly differed from the attraction rate attributed to papaya leaves (F=3.84; P=0.0387). After 24 h, watermelon peel and apple peel indicated a higher rate of attraction (23.4% and 21.7%, respectively), which were significantly different compared with those of papaya leaves and potatoes (F=9.94; P=0.00455). Large bait traps outperformed funnel traps in capturing golden apple snails and trapped a significant number of snails measuring over 1 cm in size. Watermelon peel was the most effective attractant for a large bait trap, followed by apple peel, potatoes, and papaya leaves. On average, 110 snails were captured in the lure net. However, potatoes, apple peels, and papaya leaves caught an average of 93, 80, and 79 snails, respectively. Among the attractants, the lure effect of the snails was not significantly different. The efficiency of large bait traps in capturing snails, regardless of the plant attractant employed, followed the order: apple peel > watermelon peel and potatoes > papaya leaves > melon > Korean melon. Watermelon peel is highly recommended for farmer use, as well as apple peel and potatoes. Utilizing these snail attractants may contribute positively to developing a safe and environment-friendly integrated pest management strategy.

Incidence of rice stripe disease, caused by Rice stripe tenuivirus (RSV), was surveyed during 2002 to 2004. The incidence area and ratio of diseased fields were decreased gradually during those period. Rate of diseased plants were 45.8%, 45.0% and 43.7% in the susceptible cultivars Chucheong, Saechucheong and Ilpum, respectively. However, the rate was 4.4% in resistant cultivar Hwaseong. In addition, breakdown rate was also significantly high in the susceptible cultivars in Chucheong, Saechucheong and Ilpum showing 33.6, 33.2 and 31.9%, respectively. In Hwaseong, the breakdown rate was 0.8%. Collection efficiency was compared between two insect vector collection methods. Insect-sucking machine method was much more efficient than sweeping net method in collecting small brown plant hopper (SBPH). According to the survey of the population density of the insect vector during 2002 to 2004, the national average population density was gradually decreased year by year, 3.6, 2.3, and 1.3%, respectively. This result was significantly related with the decrease of the incidence of rice stripe disease. Control efficiency of rice stripe disease by treating several seedling box and water surface with insecticides against SBPH resulted that imidacloprid GR, Fipronil FG, Clothianidin+Probenazole GR and Thiamethoxam GR showed over 80% of control efficiency at 28 days after treatment at the early stage in nursery.

Combined applications of rice bran with pine leaves were tested to examine the inhibitory effects to paddy weeds and increased yield of rice for developing techniques of environment-friendly weed management in paddy rice fields. Weed control efficacy at 60 days after treatment was improved to 88.8% by combined application of rice bran with pine leaves, while weed control efficacy by single application of rice bran showed 67.5%. The other weed control efficacy combined with chestnut leaves and barley straws were 76.3% and 69.9% respectively. Combined application of rice bran with pine leaves was more effective to broadleaf weeds such as Monochoria vaginalis. Weed control efficacy by combined application with pine leaves was 100% until 70 days after rice transplanting and maintained weed control effect up to 90 days after transplanting. Rice yield by combined application of rice bran with pine leaves was 526 kg/10 a, which was higher yield than by combined application with barley straws, single application of rice bran, natural snail application and hand weeding.
