Effect of aqueous chlorine dioxide treatment on the microbial growth and quality changes of strawberries during storage was examined. Strawberries were treated with 5, 10, and 50 ppm of chlorine dioxide solution, and stored at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Total aerobic bacteria in strawberries treated at 50 ppm of chlorine dioxide were increased from 1.40 to 2.10 log CFU/g after 7 days, while increasing in the control from 2.75 to 4.32 log CFU/g. Yeasts and molds in strawberries treated at 50 ppm of chlorine dioxide were increased from 1.10 to 1.97 log CFU/g after 7 days, while the control was increased from 2.55 to 4.50 log CFU/g. The pH and titratable acidity of strawberries were not significantly different among treatments. Sensory evaluation results showed that chlorine dioxide-treated strawberries had better sensory scores than the control. These results indicate that chlorine dioxide treatment could be useful in improving the microbial safety and qualities of strawberries during storage.

Increasing use of organically grown foods has renewed interest in the relationship between agricultural methods and food quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activities of organic strawberries. For this study, strawberries were measured in terms of quality characteristics, including weight, length, diameter, hunter color, soluble solid contents (SSC), moisture contents, and pH, as well as antioxidant activities, including DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities and total phenol and flavonoid contents. Consequently, conventional strawberries showed higher weight, diameter, and L (lightness) and b (yellowness) values than organic strawberries (p<0.001). Length, moisture contents, pH, a (redness) value, and DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were similar (p<0.05). However, organic strawberries showed higher SSC and total flavonoid and phenol contents than conventional strawberries (p<0.001). These results indicate that there were significant differences between organic and conventional agriculture techniques.

The authors examined the Ascaris eggs on the surface of the strawberries and in the soil of the strawberry yards. The results were as follows: 1. The number of Ascaris eggs detected from 870 strawberries grown on strawberry yards was 26, of which 17 eggs were found to be alive. 2. The mean number of Ascaris eggs detected in every 10gm of the soil of strawberry yards was 10.3. The Ascaris eggs were detected over 93% from the yards examined, which had been fertilized with both chemical fertilizer and night soil, or night soil only. 3. No Ascaris eggs was found from strawberries which were produced only with chemical fertilizer. 4. Ascaris eggs were detected 6 from 705 marketing strawberries studied, 3 of them developed to larval stage. 5. when the strawberries were washed by shaking 20 times after kept immersed in water for 10 minutes, the recovery rates of Ascaris eggs after first, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th washing were 60, 87, 96, 99 and 100%, respectively. 6. Besides Ascaris eggs of hook worm and Fasciolidae were also found from the strawberries examined.

Simple competition plate bioassays of Pichia anomala SKM-T and Galactomyces geotrichum SJM-59 were conducted to evaluate their potential as biological control agents that inhibit growth of Botrytis cinerea during post-harvest storage of strawberries (Fragaria ${\times}$ ananassa Duche, Red-Pearl). Occurrence rates of fungi on the surface of yeast-treated strawberries were evaluated during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. P. anomala SKM-T and G. geotrichum SJM-59 showed antifungal activities on agar plate, and P. anomala SKM-T maintained its desirable antifungal activity on surface of strawberries and its physicochemical properties during storage. Sensory evaluation was based on kinesthetics and consumer acceptability. Due to its potential antifungal activity, P. anomala SKM-T could function as biological control agent against spoilage fungi during post-harvest storage of strawberries.

수출용 냉동딸기 제조 시 미생물학적 안전성 확보를 위한 수단으로 이산화염소수와 acetic acid 병합처리를 최적 비가열 전처리 기술로써 적용하여 -20, -70, $-196^{\circ}C$로 냉동한 후 미생물 수, 품질변화 및 관능평가를 조사하였다. 냉동방법 및 세척 처리에 따른 색도 차이는 나타나지 않았고, 비타민 C 함량은 $-70^{\circ}C$ 냉동에서 35.33 mg/100 g FW로 가장 대조구와 유사하였으며, drip loss도 $-70^{\circ}C$ 냉동이 14.39%로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 관능평가 역시 $-70^{\circ}C$ 냉동이 -20, $-196^{\circ}C$ 냉동보다 높은 점수를 받았으며, 세척처리는 비타민 C 함량, drip loss 및 관능평가에 큰 영향을 끼치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 냉동딸기에 50 ppm 이산화염소수와 1% acetic acid를 병합 처리하여 냉동 후 미생물 수 변화를 측정한 결과, 냉동 전과 같이 병합처리 된 딸기 시료에서 미생물이 검출되지 않았다. 따라서 저장성이 높은 수출용 냉동딸기 생산을 위해서는 gas nitrogen convection chamber를 이용한 $-70^{\circ}C$에서의 급속냉동 처리가 보다 효과적인 냉동방법이며, 냉동 처리만으로는 미생물 제어가 어렵기 때문에 냉동 전 비가열 전처리를 통해서 냉동딸기의 미생물학적 안전성을 확보해야 한다고 판단된다.

Due to the rapid increase in cyber shopping mall of agricultural products, the parcel delivery service industry also increased, making it necessary to design an optimum packaging for agricultural products. And Due to the recent increase in strawberry consumption, there is also a need for a packaging system for parcel delivery service. In order to establish the criteria for optimum cushioning packaging design of strawberries, the bioyield strength of strawberries by storage time was measured through the ASABE test standards, and the peak acceleration in the resonance frequency and resonance frequency bands of strawberries was measured through the vibration test regulated in the ASTM test specifications. Tray cup pad and corrugated fiberboard box of delivery strawberries were designed using FEM theoretical analysis of contact stress and resonant frequency. In addition, an optimum packaging system was developed with a cushioning and vibration design considering the impact characteristics when distributing agricultural products. Through the performance evaluation and on-site evaluation of the optimum packaging system of strawberries for parcel delivery service, the random PSD test results of the delivery showed a 74% reduction in the acceleration level, and the actual distribution test of the delivery showed that the damage rate of strawberries was not more than 6.7%, indicating that it was possible to use the optimum packaging of strawberries for delivery.

This paper analyzes economic efficiency of strawberries and tomatoes farms using the data envelopment analysis (DEA). We examine how production characteristics and farm size affect overall efficiency (OE), allocative efficiency (AE), and technological efficiency (TE). We also survey sample farm households from the Farm Income Investigation database of Rural Development Administration to investigate management and cultivation techniques and to analyze economic efficiency by technique. Implications for improving efficiency are suggested in the conclusion.

신선절단 딸기의 품질유지에 유효한 갈변억제제의 사용조건을 규명하기 위하여, 원형 딸기를 절단하고 1% 농도의 ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride의 단용 또는 혼용 처리, 포장 및 보관 후 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 포장 내부의 산소와 이산화탄소 농도는 혼용 처리구에서 유의적으로 가장 높고 낮은 수준을 보였다. 갈변도는 혼용 처리구에서 가장 낮았으며, 다음으로 magnesium chloride 단용 처리구에서 낮은 수준을 나타내었다. 과육경도의 감소는 sodium chloride나 magnesium chloride 단용 처리구에서 다소 억제됨을 보였으나 혼용 처리구에서 보다 더 억제되었다. 가용성 고형분 함량과 pH는 갈변억제제 처리의 영향을 나타내지 않았다. 이로써, ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride의 혼용 처리는 신선절단 딸기의 갈변과 연화 억제를 통한 품질유지에 효과적인 방법인 것으로 판단된다.

딸기의 CA저장시 저장용기내의 탄산가스 농도에 따른 품질변화를 조사하였다. 냉장조건으로만 저장한 딸기는 2주후 53%가 식용으로 불가능하게 되었으나 공기중에 탄산가스를 20% 및 30%씩 혼합시킨 CA저장구에서는 5주 저장후 10-14%만이 변질되어다. 중량감소율은 5주저장후에도 모든 저장구 공히 5% 미만이었는데 특히 공기중에 탄산가스를 30% 혼합한 CA저장구가 1.7%로 가장 낮았다. 경도 및 적색도(a value)는 전 CA저장구가 대조구에 비하여 현저하게 높은 값을 보였다. 한편 향기성분중 이취의 원인이 되는 ethyl alcohol 및 acetaldehyde는 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 증가하였는데 공기중에 탄산가스를 20% 및 30%씩 혼합한 저장구가 다른 저장구에 비하여 전 저장기간동안 낮게 유지되었다.

The commercial value of strawberries is affected by various factors such as their shape, size and color. Among them, size determined by weight is one of the main factors determining the quality grade of strawberries. In this study, image technology was developed to predict the weight of strawberries using the shape characteristics of strawberry cultivars. For realtime weight measurements of strawberries in transport, an image measurement system was developed for weight prediction with a charge coupled device (CCD) color camera and a conveyor belt. A strawberry weight prediction algorithm was developed for three cultivars, Maehyang, Sulhyang, and Ssanta, using the number of pixels in the pulp portion that measured the strawberry weight. The discrimination accuracy (R2) of the weight prediction models of the Maeyang, Sulhyang and Santa cultivars was 0.9531, 0.951 and 0.9432, respectively. The discriminative accuracy (R2) and measurement error (RMSE) of the integrated weight prediction model of the three cultivars were 0.958 and 1.454 g, respectively. These results show that the 2D imaging technology considering the shape characteristics of strawberries has the potential to predict the weight of strawberries.
