Cooling of nutrient solution is essential to improve the growth environment of crops in hydroponic culture during summer season in Korea. This study was carried out to provide fundamental data for development of the cooling system satisfying the required cooling load of nutrient solution in hydroponic greenhouse. A numerical model for prediction of the cooling load of nutrient solution in hydroponic greenhouse was developed, and the results by the model showed good agreements with those by experiments. Main factors effecting on cooling load were solar radiation and air temperature in weather data, and conductivity of planting board and area ratio of bed to floor in greenhouse parameters. Using the model developed, the design cooling load of nutrient solution in hydroponic greenhouse of 1,000$m^2$(300pyong) was predicted to be 95,000 kJ/hr in Suwon and the vicinity.

Since it is difficult to expect the normal production of plants in greenhouses during hot summer season in Korea, certain provisions on the control of extreme environmental factors in summer should be considered for the year-round cultivation in greenhouses. This study was carried out to find a method to suppress the temperature rising of nutrient solution by cooling, which is able to contribute to the improvement of the plant growth environment in hydroponic greenhouse during hot summer season. A mechanical cooling system using the counter flow type with double pipe was developed for cooling the nutrient solution efficiently. Also the heat transfer characteristics of the system was analysed experimentally and theoretically, and compared with the existing cooling systems of nutrient solution. The cooling capacities of three different Systems, which used polyethylene tube in solution tank, stainless tube in solution tank, and the counter flow type with double pipe, were evaluated. The performance of each cooling system was about 41 %, 70% and 81 % of design cooling load in hydroponic greenhouse of 1 ,000m$^2$ on the conditions that the flow rate of ground water was 2m$^3$/hr and the temperature difference between two liquids was 10 ˚C According to the results analysed as above, the cooling system was found to have a satisfactory cooling capability for regions where ground water supply is available. Fer the other regions where ground water supply is restricted, more efficient cooling System should be developed.

Experimental and theoretical analyses were carried out to investigate the heat exchange characteristics of the nutrient solution cooling system utilizing ground water. The material of heat exchanger used in the experiment was polyethylene and the cross-flow type was adapted in which nutrient solution was mixed and ground water unmixed. For the exchanger surface area of 0.33$m^2$ and flow rates of ground water of 1-6$\ell$/min, NTU(number of transfer units) and effectiveness of experimental heat exchanger were 0.1-0.45 and 10-35％, respectively. Therefore these results showed that the hydroponic greenhouse of 1,000$m^2$(300 pyong) with the ground water of 10$m^2$/day could cover about 55-70％ of maximum cooling load in summer.

Currently, the agricultural population in Korea indicates a decreasing and aging orientation. As the population of farm labor continues to decline, so farmers are feeling the pressure to be stable crop production. To solve the problem caused by the decreasing of farm labor, it is necessary to change over to "Digital agriculture". Digital agriculture is tools that digitally collect, store, analyze, and share electronic data and/or information in agriculture, and aims to integrate the several digital technologies into crop and livestock management and other processes in agriculture fields. In addition, digital agriculture can offer the opportunity to increase crop production, save costs for farmer. Therefore, in this study, for data-based Digital Agriculture, a greenhouse environment monitoring system for crop growth monitoring based on Node-RED, which even beginners can use easily, was developed, and the implemented system was verified in a hydroponic greenhouse. Several sensors, such as temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, CO₂, solar radiation, were used to obtain the environmental data of the greenhouse. And the environmental data were processed and visualized using Node-RED and MariaDB installed in rule.box digital. The environment monitoring system proposed in this study was installed in a hydroponic greenhouse and obtained the environmental data for almost two weeks. As a result, it was confirmed that all environmental data were obtained without data loss from sensors. In addition, the dashboard provides the names of installed sensors, real time environmental data, and changes in the last three days for each environmental data. Therefore, it is considered that farmers will be able to easily monitor the greenhouse environment using the developed system in this study.

본 연구는 토마토 수경재배에서 풋마름 병원균의 분포와 침입 및 전파경로를 구명하여 풋마름병 방제의 기초 자료를 얻고자 수행하였다. 배양액 재배시스템에서 토마토 풋미름병의 발생정도별로 배양액탱크, 배지, 폐액에서 병원균의 밀도를 검정한 결과 20% 정도 발병된 포장의 폐액에서는 19,000cfu/mL의 밀도로 검출되었으며 연작연수가 많을수록 병 발생이 심하였다. 토마토 펄라이트 수경재배시스템에서 토마토 풋마름병의 발생전파 과정은 최초 발생지점으로부터 좌우로 급속히 전파되었다. 토마토 풋마름병 발생포쟁에서 병원균의 유입경로를 추적한 결과 육묘 중에 감염되는 경우와 웹스 주변의 이병된 토양에서 감염되는 경우로 크게 두 가지 방법으로 유입되는 것으로 생각된다. 또한 시판용 토마토 종자에서는 풋마름병원균이 검출되지 않았다.

This study investigated which nutrient solution is suitable for growth and secondary metabolite contents when three different vegetable plants are grown simultaneously in one hydroponic cultivation bed. Seeds of pak choi (Brassica compestris L. ssp chinsensis), red mustard (Brassica juncea L.), and arugula (Eruca sativa Mill.) were sown in the shape of a triangle in three places on rockwool cubes. The rockwool cubes were placed in semi deepflow technique (semi-DFT) hydroponic systems in a rooftop greenhouse after three weeks of growth as seedlings then cultivated with four different nutrient solutions, Korea Horticultural Experiment Station (KHE), Hoagland, Otsuka-A, and Yamazaki, at the rooftop greenhouse for two weeks. The leaf area of pak choi cultivated in Otsuka-A was the largest but SPAD values, leaf area, and fresh weight of arugula were highest with KHE treatment. The total glucosinolate (GSL) content of pak choi was 151.7% higher in KHE than in Hoagland, and there was no significant difference in Yamazaki and Otsuka-A treatments. The total GSL content of red mustard was 34.6 μmol·g^-1 in Hoagland, and it was 32.6% higher in Hoagland than in Yamazaki. Total GSL content of arugula was 57.5% higher in Yamazaki and Hoagland nutrients than in KHE and Otsuka-A nutrients solutions. The total GSL content of three plants grown with KHE was 40.7% higher than with Yamazaki, and the other nutrient solutions did not show significant differences. Therefore, KHE nutrient solution is considered suitable for nutrient solution composition for the cultivation of three different Brassicaceae crops in a single hydroponic cultivation system.

양액재배는 기존 비닐하우스 안의 토양재배 방식에서 물이나 배지에 작물을 심고 생육에 필요한 양분(비료)을 녹인 양액을 공급하여 재배하는 방식으로 기존 시설재배 방식에서 영농기술이 발전하여 양액재배는 작물의 생산성을 극대화할 수 있는 큰 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구는 폐양액이 다량의 비료 물질을 함유하고 있기에 하천으로 유입되면 인근 하천을 오염시키며, 양액재배에 사용되고 폐기되는 폐배지, 폐작물의 처리에 대한 문제점을 제시하고 있다. 또한, 처리시 처리비용의 발생과 현재 국내 양액재배 농장의 대부분이 비순환식 양액재배 시스템을 사용하여 배출되는 양액의 잔여비료로 인한 환경오염 및 비료의 불필요한 과다 사용 문제점을 지적하는 선행연구를 바탕으로 사전조사와 실험을 진행하였다. 현재 양약재배 비순환식 시스템 재배방식 농장에서 발생하는 폐양액, 폐배지, 폐작물이 농장 주변 환경에 미치는 영향을 수질, 토양분석 결과 수치를 통해 규명하고자 현장자료 연구를 진행하였다. 현장 수질, 토양분석을 위해서 지역별 양액재배 5개 농가의 작형, 양액재배 시스템를 확인하였으며, 강원 C지역 토경재배 3개 농장의 작형, 양액재배 시스템 농장 현장을 방문하여 농장의 시설내·외부 수질, 토양 샘플을 채취하였다. 추가적으로 폐작물 야적지에서 발생되는 침출수 및 토양샘플을 채취하여 수질, 토양분석을 하였다. 연구 결과 비순환식 시스템 재배방식 농장에서 발생되는 폐양액의 평균 total nitrogen(TN) 농도는 402 mg/L 이였고, total phosphate(TP)의 경우 77.4mg/L 이였으며, 이는 환경정책기본법 시행령상 하천의 생활환경 TP기준 993.7배 초과한 수치였다. 또한, 물환경보전법의 산업폐수 배출기준 TN기준 6~19배, TP기준 2~27배 초과한 수치결과를 확인하였다. 폐작물 야적지에서 발생된 침출수의 경우 환경정책기본법 시행령상 하천의 생활환경 COD 기준 11,828배 초과, TP기준 395~2663배 초과한 수치이며, 물환경보전법의 산업폐수 배출기준 TN기준 788배, TP기준 5배 초과한 수치결과를 확인하였다. 비순환식 양액재배에서 발생하는 폐양액, 폐배지, 폐작물이 환경에 미치는 영향에 대한 더 정밀한 연구를 위해 전국 양액재배 농가수(호), 재배면적(ha)를 기준으로 하여 양액재배면적이 넓은 지역 도출해내어야 한다. 이를 통해 넓을 지역의 양액재배 시설 주변 소하천을 중심으로 계절적 요인, 기후 요인, 날씨 요인, 재배면적, 재배지역, 농가 재배특성 등의 다양한 요인을 고려한 수질 및 토양 샘플링 채취와 분석에 관한 추가 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

BACKGROUND: Horticultural plant growth under field and/or greenhouse conditions is affected by the climate changes (e.g., temperature, humidity, and rainfall). Therefore investigation of hydroponics on field horticultural crops is necessary for year-round production of the plants regardless of external environment changes under plant factory system with artificial light sources. METHODS AND RESULTS: Common sage (Salvia plebeia), nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus), and hooker chive (Allium hookeri) plants were hydroponically culturing in the plant factory with blue-red-white LEDs (Light-Emitting Diodes) and fluorescent lights (FLs). Leaf numbers of common sage under mixture LED and FL treatments were 134% and 98% greater, respectively than those in the greenhouse condition. In hooker chives, unfolded leaf numbers were 35% greater under the artificial lights and leaf elongation was inhibited by the conventional sunlight compared to the artificial light treatments. Absorption pattern of NO₃-N composition in hydroponic solution was not affected by the different light qualities. CONCLUSION(S): Plant factory system with different light qualities could be applied for fresh-leaf production of common sage, nasturtium, and hooker chive plants culturing under field and/or greenhouse. Controlled light qualities in the system resulted in significantly higher hydroponic growth of the plants comparing to conventional greenhouse condition in present.
