Abstract

The purpose of the study was to provide baseline information that could encourage consumers and establish the direction of development for sprouts and leafy vegetables. A survey on the consumption and preference for sprouts and leafy vegetables of 823 people over 20 years of age in Seoul and Gyeonggi province was conducted. The preference for sprouts was higher in men ($3.75{\pm}0.96$) than in women ($3.64{\pm}0.84$), whereas the preference for leafy vegetables was higher in women ($4.06{\pm}0.74$) than in men ($3.88{\pm}0.90$). Based on age, the respondents in their 40s or above had high preferences for sprouts and leaf vegetables due to the importance that they accorded to health and nutrition (p<0.01). The sprouts and leafy vegetables were purchased mainly for their high nutritional value. The purchase frequency of once a month or more for leafy vegetables (82.7%) was higher than that for sprouts (57.1%). The consumers purchased sprouts and leafy vegetables mainly from a large discount store. The respondents in their 20s showed the highest percentage of purchasing from a local store whereas the older ones showed a high preference for traditional markets. The reason for the choice of the place of purchase was convenience. The freshness and price were important factors in the consumption of sprouts and leafy vegetables. In the case of leafy vegetables, the consumers preferred to buy them using the conventional weight measurement system rather than in small packages. On the other hand, mixed small packages were preferred for sprouts. The purchase frequency was correlated with the preferences, need for improvement and purchase intent for sprouts and leafy vegetables. The aspects that require improvement for producing high-quality sprouts and leafy vegetables were the nutritional and functional properties. To increase the consumption of sprouts and leafy vegetables, there is need for variations and improvement of the quality and safety of the products.

본 연구는 새싹 및 쌈채소의 소비증진 및 발전방향을 확립하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하는 목적으로 새싹 및 쌈채소의 선호도와 소비실태에 대해 서울 및 경기도를 중심으로 20세 이상 성인 남녀 823명을 대상으로 조사되었다. 새싹채소의 선호도는 남성($3.75{\pm}0.96$)이 여성($3.64{\pm}0.84$)보다 높은 반면 쌈채소는 여성($4.06{\pm}0.74$)이 남성($3.88{\pm}0.90$)보다 선호도가 높았다. 연령별로는 건강과 연령을 중시하는 40대 이상이 높게 나타났다(p<0.01). 구입하는 주된 목적은 영양적 가치를 높이기 위함이 가장 많았다. 쌈채소(82.7%)의 월 1회 이상 구입비율이 새싹채소(57.1%) 보다 높았다. 주요 구입장소는 대형할인마트가 가장 많았으며, 연령별로는 20대가 동네채소가게에서의 구입비율이 높은 반면 연령이 높을수록 재래시장에서의 구입비율이 높게 나타났다. 구입장소를 이용하는 이유로는 이용의 편리성이 가장 높게 나타났다. 새싹 및 쌈채소 모두 구입시 신선도와 가격을 가장 고려하는 것으로 나타났다. 새싹채소는 혼합소포장 형태, 쌈채소의 경우 소포장보다는 계근의 형태를 더 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 새싹 및 쌈채소의 구입빈도는 선호도, 개선필요성 및 구입의향와 상관관계가 있음을 보여주었다. 향후 고품질의 새싹 및 쌈채소를 위한 개선사항으로는 영양 및 기능성이 가장 높았다. 따라서 새싹 및 쌈채소의 소비확대를 위해서는 품목 다양화와 품질향상, 식품안전성이 요구된다.
