  • This experiment was conducted to evaluate the insect-proof netting, chemical sprays, application of attractants, fruit bagging and light trapping as the control methods of the fruit piercing moths in the orchards on reclaimed land in Sugyeri, Goksung, Chonnam Province, during June to October in 1976. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Insect-proof. netting effectively decreased fruit damage, compared as to the control, down to $9.4\%$ from $38.3\%$ in plum, $2.5\%$ from $53.0\%$ in peaches and $10.0\%$ from $29.0\%$ in grapes. 2. The control effects of chemicals varied significantly among the 7 insecticides tested: Deoclean, Naphthalene, and Thiometon were more effective to the fruit damages as low as $2.0\%,\; 3.6\%,\;and\;5.9\%$ respectively. while the fruit damage was rather high, $9.8\%$ for Demeton, $10.1\%$, for Takju +lead arsenate and $14.2\%$ for Padan. ,3. In the test with 7 attractants, the largest number of moths attracted and killed was 416.by Takju+brown sugar and the next was 307 by Takju+venegor while this number was 141 by mixed solution (see text) which is rather lower than expectation The fruit damage was lowest in Takju+honey and$5.2\%$, the next was $5.60\%$ for Takju+venegor and the highest was $12.0\%$, Takju alone. 4. Fruit bagging with polyethylene film effectively decreased the fruit damage from the inserts but brought about severe fruit rot and delay ripening. Meanwhile, paper bagging was less effective in preventing insects, resulting in $17.5\%$ fruit damage, however, gave no adverse effect other than slight Belay in ripening. 5. Light trapping was hardly expected to be a method of controlling these fruit piercing moths. However, the number of collected moths swarmed by electric light was 10.8 for can-descence, 0.95 for blue, and 0.22 for yellow light.

  • Modified T trellis (MT) and Wakeman trellis (WT) were widely used Korean vineyard because they had an advantage for spur pruning type cultivar such as Campbell Early. In this experiment, we compared labor time and intensity for bunch management between MT and WT trellis systems in 'Campbell Early' grapes. As a result, berry thinning was required 17.3 hours (10a) on the WT trellis but was required 12.3 hours (10a) on the MT trellis. In like manner, bagging was required 10.1 hours (10a) on the WT trellis but was required 8.2 hours (10a) on the MT trellis. On the other hand, labor intensity measured on berry thinning and bagging practices using REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) index, then WT trellis was scored 13.0, but MT trellis was scored 8.6. Meanwhile, MT trellis reduced vigorous growing of internodes length and width on grapevine shoots. Consequently, MT trellis is more convenience trellis for working ergonomically in Korea vineyard.

  • The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of fruit skin spray of the lime fertilizer in 'Campbell Early' grapes. The T-N, P, K, Ca and Mg of fruit skin and cluster weight, berry weight, cluster length showed no difference between control and lime fertilizer. But soluble solids in fruit was reduced by fruit skin spray of liquid calcium fertilizer extracted from oyster shell after bagging(LCaB). The anthocyanin content of fruit skin was decreased by air-slaked lime(HCa) and LCaB treatment. Also, occurrence of fruit skin bloom was significantly reduced by HCa and oyster shell powder(OS-CaP) treatment. The berry firmness was significantly increased through liquid calcium fertilizer extracted from oyster shell(LCa) and HCa treatment. Conspicuously, berry elasticity was rather decreased by OS-CaP treatment. However, there was no difference of weight loss of fruit among treatments during room temperature storage.

  • The effects of calcium concentrations of coating bag treatment to reduce berry cracking were investigated through the changes of pericarp structure and berry cracking rate in 'Kyoho' grape. The soluble solids and anthocyanin contents in harvested grapes were highest at $18.1^{\circ}Brix$ and $2.56{\mu}g{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ in non bagging group compared with those of calcium coating bag treatments. The firmness of pericarp was lowest in non bagging group ($1.18kg{\cdot}5mm^{-1}{\O}$) compared with bagging treatments (1.23, 1.24, 1.27, $1.35kg{\cdot}5mm^{-1}{\O}$) which increased effectively in proportion to calcium concentration. As a result of histological observation of the fruit skin, the bagging with higher calcium concentration developed thicker epidermal and sub-epidermal layer of cell wall than that of non bagging. Moreover, the strengthened berry skin of calcium treatments effectively decreased berry cracking rate under critical turgor pressure. However, the 9% calcium coating bag treatment which was the most effective for cracking reduction seriously decreased marketability of harvested grape with white color staining on berry skin caused by eluted calcium from the coated paper bag. Based on our results, we recommend that 6% calcium coating bag be available for berry cracking reduction and higher quality production.

  • This experiment was conducted to make eatable fruit of oriental melon with peel, we covered oriental melon fruit with pear, apple and grape paper bag. Temperature inside paper bags was lower than air temperature in daytime but reversed in night. Relative humidity inside paper bags was higher than outside humidity in daytime but reversed in night. Covering with paper bags seemed to make fruit length shorter, fruit width narrower, flesh thickness thinner and fruit weight heavier but no difference was found among treatments. Soluble solid contents of flesh and placenta seemed lower with covering with paper bags but also difference did not find among treatments. Increasing of soluble solid contents of fruits was observed at 5 days after removing paper bags but not immediately at removing paper bags. Fruit hardness and chromaticity were dropped by covering paper bags. Decrease of fruit hardness by covering paper bags made more eatable with peel but more study have to be taken to improve chromaticity and soluble solid of fruits.

  • Different timings of coverage by a small paper bag at the young fruit stage were tested in order to evaluate the effect on the protection of fruit damage occurred by disease or pest, and quality deterioration during organic cultivation of 'Hwasan' (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) pear cultivar. The occurrence of four major moth populations and two major diseases in pears were monitored from April to September 2015. Among major moths and diseases, Grapholita molesta and pear rust were found often in the organic pear orchard, and they were observed frequently in May. Coverage by a small paper bag at the young fruit stage resulted in better fruit quality and a higher proportion of commercial fruits compared to a coverage timing of conventional paper bag. Interestingly, the fastest coverage timing of a small paper bag at the young fruit stage (when it was covered in April) showed the lowest occurrence of damaged fruits, which indicates that it successfully protected fruits from the damage caused by moths and diseases during April and May. Moreover, this timing of small paper bag coverage did not negatively affect the major qualitative and quantitative characteristics of fruits. These results suggest that early coverage by a small paper bag at the young fruit stage can be considered an efficient management strategy for organic cultivation of 'Hwasan' pear cultivar.

  • This study was carried out to know the characteristics of flowering and bearing fruit, the optimum period, regions and methods for seed harvesting, the optimum temperatures for seed storage and germination, and the optimum period for sowing at nursery bed and seedling transplanting of Valeriana fauriei Briquet. The flowering and bearing fruit of Valeriana fauriei was developed from the before-year root. Optimum period for seed harvest of Valeriana fauriei was from late July to middle August, and optimum areas were the high elevated areas over 500 m above the sea level as Jinbu-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do. Using of net-bag for seed harvesting was the effective method to gather the full ripe seed, and bagging of net-bag was necessary from the season of middle May that was the flowering middle-stage. Germination rates don't show the difference among the different temperatures of storage as approximately 41% at $-20^{\circ}C$, $2^{\circ}C$ or $20^{\circ}C$ of seed storage temperatures. The optimum temperature range was in $15{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ for seed germination at nursery bed. The optimum period for seed sowing at nursery bed was the late February, and the optimum period for seedling transplanting was the middle April.

  • In order to determine the physiolosical characteristics of plum fruits(Oishi wase) during maturation and guilty according to temperature after harvest, (2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid(ethphon) 390ppm was sprayed on plum tree 11days before commercial matuarity in Suwon area. And also this study was acted to investigate fruits quility(Formosa) influenced by temperature(room, low) and polyethylene films(0.03, 0.06, 0.1mm), 1. Effect of ethphon on the fruits maturation and fruits(Oishi wase) quility according to temperature ofter harvest. Ethephon stimulated fruits ripening but the firmness was reduced rapidly. Soluble solids and titratable acidity was not very different than each treatment. Carbon dioxide and ethylene production were advanced and the production peak were shown earlier by ethephon treatment as compared with control fruit. Anthocyanin development was enhansed rapidly by ethephon treatment but it exerted a bad influence on fruits color after harvest, The soluble sugars in fluits were mainly glucose, sucrose, and fructose. Those content were higher in treated fruit than control. The organic acid was mainly malic acid. The shelf life was less than about 5days at room temperature and about 10 days at low temperature. 2. Fruits(Formosa) quility as affected by polyethylene film bagging. The polyethylene films well maintained the firmness both room and low temperature. Low temperature was more effective in maintaining titratable acidity than room temperature, especially polyethylene films. On the Other hand, soluble solids content was not shown wide differance between room and low temperature. Polyethylene film showed a high resperation rate, the rate was higher at room temperature than low temperature and thicker films revealed higher rate. Otherwise, ethylene production was low in all treatment Polyethylene film inhibited the coloration of fruits, decreased anthocyanin content. Fruits coloration delayed by low temperature in control. The shelf life of plum fruits was about 6 days at room temperature and 13 days at low temperature in control Polyethylene film had no advantage on shelf life both at room and low temperature.
