This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of herbIcides on weed control, growth characteristics and yield in Angelica gigas NAKAI, after transplanting it to the field. All herbicids treated had no effect on the emergency period, bolting rate, and growth characteristics of A. gigos. Simazin wp, methabenzthiazuron wp were slightly harmful, but linuron wp pendimethalin ec, triflurain ec had no injury on the A. gigas, even with double dosage level. Under the treatment of pendimethalin ec, linulon wp, effect of weed control valuae at 55 days after transplanting was 89.6, and 88.3 respectively with 5 or 7 species of weeds appearing. Broadleaf weeds f?ere abundant than grasses, and the major weeds were C. albam, C. flexuos, D.sanguinalis, and E. arvense. Dry yield were increased somewhat more with herbicides than by hand weeding, even with double dosage level.

Diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella L.) recently became a single worst insect which is not controlled effectively by organophosphorus and carbamate insecticides in Kangwon alpine croplands. The objective of this study was to determine if diamondback moth has developed a resistance to organophosphorus and carbamate insecticides. Resistance of diamondback moth, collected at Keichon, Jangpyong Taebaek, Chunchon, and Hongchon, was determined by the concentration required to kill fifty percent of population, $LC_{50}$. Their response of resistance varied to insecticides and locations: Taebaek populations were 35 and 70 times more resistant to chlorpyrifos and fenitrothion, respectively, than susceptible(S) population. Hongchon populations were 94 and 254 times more resistant to chlorpyrifos and fenitrothion, respectively, than S population. In addition, Chunchon populations were 37 and 19 times more resistant to profenofos and benfuracarb, respectively, than S population. However, the field populations did not differ in resistance to diazinon, phenthoate, flupyrazofos, carbofuran, and furathiocarb. This study show that field populations of diamondback moth found in Kangwon alpine vegetable croplands have developed a resistance and/or multiple resistance to some insecticides, implying that farmers are losing organophosphorus and carbamate insecticide options for selective control in vegetable crops.
