  • 농작물의 재배 목적이 생산량의 목적에서 품질향상으로 변화되어져 왔다. 실외 환경을 농작물 재배에 대해 영향을 줄이기 위해 농가들이 비닐하우스 재배 방식을 많이 사용하고 있다. 그 가운데, 버섯은 고영양이면서, 풍부한 비타민을 함유하고 있는 건강식품으로서 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 이로 인해 버섯 산업은 새로운 유망산업으로 떠오르고 있다. 이를 위해 버섯에 대한 재배방식은 단순한 수공 재배모드에서 자동화된 공장화된 재배모드로 발전해오고 있다. 이와 같이 버섯의 생산 과정에서 요구되는 생육환경제어는 버섯의 산출량 및 품질에 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 이로 인해 농가 비닐하우스 안에 온도를 수시 조정할 필요가 있다. 지금은 대부분 농가들 여전히 온도계로 온도를 측정하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 자동 온도 조절 환경 구축해서 온도를 실시간으로 측정할 수 있으며 농가 생산효율 향상시키고 불필요한 노동력을 감소시킬 수 있다.

  • Purpose: This study is to investigate the low back pain, social support, impediment in daily living activities and to identify factors affecting impediment in elderly farmer' daily living activities. Methods: The participants were 128 elderly farmers who had received nerve block. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire from February to March, 2018. They were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, pearson's correlation coefficient, and linear multiple regression. Results: The score of low back pain was $6.27{\pm}1.69$ (10 points), that of social support $2.92{\pm}0.76$ (1~5 points), and that of impediment in activity of daily living $2.01{\pm}0.82$ (0~5 points). Factors affecting impediment in activity of daily living were found to include age (p=.017), daily hours of farm work (p<.001), fear for the nerve block (p<.001), low back pain (p<.001), and social support (p<.001); the explanatory power of these variables was 58.8%. Conclusion: This study has found the controllable factors affecting impediment in activity of daily living among the rural elderly engaging in farm work include low back pain, social support, and daily farming hours. Therefore, to reduce impediment in activity of daily living among them, it is necessary to develop nursing interventions that can improve impediment in activity of daily living through reduction of daily farming hours using local resources. It is also desirable to improve their health status by reducing low back pain, and develop and apply social supports with health education programs that fit the local resources and the needs of the rural elderly.

  • This study aims to examine the farm household income and consumption structure change as well as farm income inequality. Data from the Agricultural Household Survey for the years 2016, 2021, and 2022 were hired to analyze farm income inequality by the Gini coefficient decomposition method. Results show that from 2016 to 2021, all income quintiles exhibited an increasing trend, but in 2022, income decreased across all quintiles. As a result of analyzing farm household consumption expenditure, consumption expenditure increased in all income quintiles in 2021 and 2022 compared to 2016, but consumption of optional goods decreased in the fifth quintile. In addition, it was found that farmers in the first quartile had higher consumption expenditures and expenditures on options than those in the second quartile. The analysis of farm income by region show that public subsidies increased significantly for general rural farmers than for farmers in special and metropolitan areas in all income quintiles during the period. In the case of the first quintile, farm household income in rural areas in special and metropolitan cities increased compared to general rural areas. In the fifth quartile, agricultural income and sideline income in general rural areas increased compared to rural areas in special and metropolitan cities, while rural areas in special and metropolitan cities increased non-business income compared to rural areas. Results of farming income inequality by income type show a steady decline in inequality from 2016 to 2022, indicating that the decreasing gini coefficinet of public subsidies is contributing to the decline in farm income inequality. Private subsidies and side income are shown to increase inequality.

  • This review presents a series of Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to assist Asian smallholder dairy farmers in identifying the possible causes for their poor farm performance and profitability. When assessing farm profitability, these indicators can be split into two types, those diagnosing problems with feeding management and those indicating poor herd management. As home grown forage is generally cheaper to source than purchased forage, the more produced on farm, the better. Too many stock on limited land is a common feature on Asian dairy small holdings. Unlike other classes of livestock, milking cows have very high nutrient requirements, therefore high quality forages and concentrates are essential for profitable dairying. Milk income less feed cost is one of the simplest and easy to measure indicators of farm profitability and is also quick to respond to small changes in farm practices. Problems with herd management can be diagnosed using measures such as the proportion of cows actually milking in the herd or their peak yield and persistency of production. There are also simple indicators of herd reproductive performance and of health and growth of young stock that assist in searching for the underlying causes of poor farm profitability.

  • The purposes of this study were (1) to identify the present situation and pending problems of agricultural education in Agricultural Technology & Extension Center (ATEC), (2) to analyze the satisfaction degree and educational needs of agricultural extension education program, and (3) to draw some implications in the direction of the development direction of agricultural extension, based on the analysis aforementioned. Data were collected through questionnaires from 230 farmers. Based on the results of study, the recommendations were as follows. 1. Increase of income could not guarantee the improvement of QOL. So, ATEC should make some efforts to plan and administer diversified agricultural extension and education programs. 2. Agricultural practice was the most effective educational methods. Especially, for return-migrants and young farmers, applicable educational program should be planned and offered. 3. Education program on agricultural information, especially on the internet use, would be the most attractive program of agricultural extension education in the future.

  • The electronic commerce of agricultural products provides benefits both to the farmers and the consumers because of direct transaction between producers and consumers. This study analyses the factors affecting consumer's purchase intention that are using electronic commerce. And the purpose of this study is to contribute to increasing the farmer's income while operating electronic commerce by applying the results of this analysis. Consumer's purchasing factors in electronic commerce were obtained through literature reviews. The research model is established with the factors and analyses through the structural equation model. The results are as following; the first is how the quality of agricultural products affects positively consumer's satisfaction and trust. When sufficient information about the seller and the products are provided in the shopping mall site there are positive effects on the consumer's satisfaction and trust. The factors of convenience like purchasing time, saving, delivery convenience affect positively consumer's satisfaction. However, the relationship with trust enhancement could not be confirmed. In addition, hypotheses of positive relationships between economic feasibility factors like low price, satisfaction and trust, were rejected. Finally, consumer's satisfaction affects trust, and both the consumer's satisfaction and trust affects positively the purchase intention. In summary, in the electronic commerce of agricultural products, consumers might use electronic commerce as they purchase the reliable high quality products directly from farmers rather than be affected by economic feasibility and convenience factors.
