  • Currently, the overall tendency for green and sustainable economic development is creating a circular economy. In actuality, agricultural output is currently benefiting greatly from the growth of the circular economy. The creation of a circular economy helps address resource scarcity, save the environment, combat climate change, and increase economic efficiency. Vietnam's economy can grow quickly and sustainably by shifting to a circular economy production model. Comparing prior growth techniques to the digital age and implementing circular economic development connected with high technology will be a fantastic opportunity to boost growth efficiency. In actuality, Vietnam currently has a large number of agricultural circular economy models. These are models: Creating and using gas from waste and wastewater in livestock and farming; model combining cultivation, livestock, and aquaculture; agro-forestry model; garden-forest model; Circular model using agricultural by-products as a catalyst or creating other valuable products; model of moderation, linked to reducing the use of growth hormones, veterinary medications, pesticides, and artificial fertilizers in agriculture and animal husbandry. Unfortunately, there have been few studies and applications of the aforementioned models, which has made it difficult to build the agricultural sector sustainably. In this paper, we outline the current situation and propose solutions to develop a circular economy model in agriculture in Vietnam for sustainable development.

  • 본 연구는 소비자의 친환경 농산물에 대한 반응과 친환경 농산물 구입의향에 미치는 영향요인을 체계적으로 규명하기 위해 경험적 통계학적 분석을 시도함으로써 소비 확대와 친환경 농업정책 수립을 위한 시사점을 발견하는데 목적을 두었다. 소비자들의 친환경 농산물에 대한 인식의 정도와 주요 구입처, 친환경 농산물의 단점, 친환경 농산물을 구입하지 않는 이유 등 구입 실태에 대한 것은 설문조사를 통하여 살펴보았고 이를 토대로 친환경 농산물 구입의향에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 살펴보기 위하여 가설을 설정하고 그 가설을 검증하기 위해서 ANOVA분석, 상관분석으로 변수들의 관계를 살펴보았으며, 다중회귀분석을 통하여 가설을 검증하였다. 친환경 농산물에 대한 소비자 성향 분석 결과 친환경 농산물에 대한 구입이 있는 소비자는 전체 응답자의 88.2%였으며, 채소류를 가장 많이 소비하는 것으로 나타났다. 구매이유는 건강이나 질병치료를 위해서가 많았으며, 대부분 소비자들이 친환경 농산물의 가격이 높아 구입이 어렵다는 의견도 많았다. 그리고 일반농산물과의 선호도에서는 85.8%가 친환경 농산물에 대해 긍정적으로 생각하고 있었으며, 장래에도 가격이 저렴하고, 재배 유통과정이 확실하면 계속 구입하겠다는 의견이 89.3%로 나타났다. 따라서 친환경 농산물에 대한 소비자 의향에서 나타난 친환경 농산물의 소비 저해 요인을 최소화하고 소비를 확대시키기 위해서는 재배 및 유통 과정을 투명하게 소비자에게 알려 소비자가 신뢰할 수 있도록 철저한 품질인증 관리와 함께 관행재배 농산물이 유사 판매되지 않도록 하며, 잔류 농약으로부터 안전한 건강식품이라는 것을 소비자에게 인식시키는 일이 무엇보다 중요할 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 친환경 농산물 판로를 다양하게 하고, 고소득층이 사는 지역을 대상으로 일반 생필품과 함께 친환경 농산물을 구입할 수 있는 장소를 확대하는 한편, 생산 및 유통 판매 과정에서 발생되는 비용이 절감시켜 지나치게 높은 가격으로 판매되지 않도록 하여 친환경 농산물이 일반 농산물보다 더 비싸게 받아야 하는 이유를 소비자가 납득할 수 있도록 근거를 제시하는 등 소비 확대 노력이 전개되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

  • This research endeavors to explore the enhancement of workforce economic efficiency through the application of nanotechnology, focusing on its economic implications. The findings of this investigation reveal that in recent years, surging global population growth and escalating demands for products and services have led to excessive resource consumption, resulting in adverse environmental consequences and altering environmental conditions-a phenomenon referred to as the economic growth dilemma. Entrepreneurs and economic stakeholders have begun to recognize the importance of sustainable development and the integration of environmental considerations into the production of goods and services. Within this context, knowledge-based economies have emerged as a driving force for sustainable business practices, particularly in the realm of nanotechnology. The integration of nanotechnology across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, agriculture, environmental management, and the chemical and petroleum sectors, as well as energy distribution, has yielded remarkable results. Consequently, this research aims to investigate the application and integration of nanotechnology in environmentally friendly silver nanoparticle production within select industries. Subsequently, it will examine the far-reaching implications of nanotechnology on economic growth and sustainable development.

  • The objective of this study is to analyze the properness, effectiveness and sustainability on the large-scale environment-friendly agricultural districts (LEAD). For this, we survey 11 public officers who manage the LEAD. Most of them aware necessities of LEAD project. They have a higher satisfaction and think that the project affect ripple effect and contribution on environment-friendly agriculture. Main performance expected of the LEAD project is a spread of natural circulation agriculture in connection with cultivation and stockbreeding. For continuance of environment-friendly agriculture after the project, it is necessary to find markets of products. Also policy making related with environment-friendly agricultural technique is required. The results of this study show that the LEAD project need a modification based on field and change of agricultural issues.

  • Agriculture has played a significant role in the national economy, contributing to food security, driving economic growth, and safeguarding the dietary habits of the population. Korean agriculture has been compelled to focus on intensive farming due to its limited cultivation area, excessive input costs, and the limitations of agricultural mechanization. In the Republic of Korea (R.O.K), the concept of environmentally friendly animal agriculture began to be introduced in the early 2000s. This concept ultimately aims to cultivate sustainable animal agriculture (SAA) through environmentally friendly production practices, ensuring the healthy rearing of animals to supply safe animal products. Despite the government's efforts, there are still significant challenges in implementing environmentally friendly agriculture and SAA in the R.O.K. Therefore, the objective of this review is to establish the direction that the animal agriculture sector should take in the era of climate crisis, and to develop effective strategies for SAA tailored to the current situation in the R.O.K by examining the trends in SAA in the U.S. The animal agriculture sector in the U.S. has been working towards creating a SAA system where humans, animals, and the environment can coexist through government initiatives, industry research, technological support, and individual efforts. Efforts have been made to reduce emissions like carbon, and improve factors affecting the environment such as the carbon footprint, odor, and greenhouse gases associated with animal agriculture processes for animals such as cattle and pigs. The transition of the U.S. towards SAA appears to be driven by both external goals related to addressing climate change and the primary objectives of responding to the demand for safe animal products, expanding consumption, and securing competitiveness in overseas export markets. The demand for animal welfare, organic animal products, and processed goods has been increasing in the U.S. consumer market. A major factor in the transformation of the U.S. animal agriculture sector in terms of livestock specifications is attributed to environmentally friendly practices such as high-quality feed, heat stress reduction, improvements in reproductive ability and growth period reduction, and efforts in animal genetic enhancement.
