This study was performed to investigate the optimum moisture content and the best packaging method of dried persimmons for long term storage at room temperature. The package material to be used were 0.05mm polyethylene film, Wrap film, 0.08mm LDPE film exchanged nitrogen gas, and non package for untreated control. Before the storage, the initial moisture contents of dried persimmons were treated with 40%, 35% and 30%, respectively; 40% as traditional dryness, 35% as extending dry period one more week, and 30% as for two more weeks. The best package method was 0.08mm LDPE film exchanged nitrogen gas, and the optimum moisture control was 35%

This experiment carried out to find the storage life according to the kinds of packaging material. Sheridan(Grape) which was fumigated SO2 were wrapped with polyethylenes(Bio-PE and PE) and stored at $0^{\circ}C$ under 90% RH modified condition. The resorts were summarized as follow. Natural weight loss was increased according to the storage time during the 135days storage that was only 1.0-1.7% in sealing section while 10% in non-sealing section. Abonrmal fruits were increased as the storage time was increased and it was 6.6-6.7% in sealing section while 100% in non-sealing during the 135days storage. Quality of appearance and taste are better in sealing section than non-sealing section and it was good in Bio-PE sealing section between packaging materials. Moistrue content was de creased as the storage range was increased and the decreasing rate of that during the storage was 4.9-5.2% in sealing section between treatments. During the storage range increased, the soluble solid degree was increased in non-sealing section but decreased in sealing section.

Sectional equilibrium moisture contents of Larix leptolepis and Populus euramericana I-476 were determined, their correlations and significances were investigated. Among the ovendry moisture contents. electric moisture meter determining values and the estimative values through chemical equilibria formula, there were significant correlations, 1-5% level, at whole sections in Larix leptolepis. However, in Populus euramericana there was only significant correlation between ovendry moisture content values and electric moisture meter determining values.

The lipid components, fatty acid compositions, physical and chemical characteristics of crude oil in Amorpha fruticosa seed were determined and proximate compositions of it were also analyzed. The results were summarized as follow: 1) The proximate composition showed moistrue to be 10.14%, crude protein to be 21.77%, crude fats to be 12.73%, carbohydrates to be 51.75% and crude ash to be 3.61%. 2) Specific gravity, refractive index, smoke point and titer of the crude oil were $0.925\;(15/15^{\circ}C)$, $1,477(15^{\circ}C)$, $175^{\circ}C$ and $14.8^{\circ}C$, respectively. 3) Iodine, saponification, acid, ester value and unsaponifiable content of the crude oil were 144, 182, 2.9, 179 and 5.17%, respectively. 4) Lipid components were separated by TLC and quantitatively determined by TLC scanner to give 75% triglycerides, 14% esterified sterols, 3.08% phospholipids, 4.4% free sterols and 3.77% free fatty acids. 5) Fatty acid compositions were quantitatively determined by GLC to give 76.21% linoleic acid, 9.92% palmitic acid, and 5.07% stearic acid as the main components, oleic, linolenic, palmitoleic and arachidic acid were presented in small quantities.
