Investigated ware the decomposition of mulch paper, weed occurrence, and rice growth and yield in transplanting rice culture with paper mulching in 1996 and 1997. The mulch paper were developed from domestic old corrugated container. In the experiment of 1996 where 25 percent of nitrogen fertilizer was applied as tillering fertilizer at 15 days after transplanting, it took about 28 to 40 days for the mulch paper to reach 50 percent decomposition according to types of mulch paper and fertilizer amount. The decomposition was faster in 18kg N/10a fertilization plot than in 12kg N/10a fertilization plot, and slower in the mulch paper treated with polyamidepolyamine epichlorohydrin resin(PPE) for the reinforcement of wet strength than in the mulch paper without PPE. In the experiment of 1997 where nitrogen fertilizer was not applied at tillering stage and instead 70 percent of nitrogen fertilizer was supplied as basal fertilizer, it took more than 42 days for the mulch paper(PPF treated) to reach 50 percent decomposition. Paper mulching was found to be very effective in controlling the paddy weeds at early stage of rice growth, but the efficacy, of weed control decreased especially in the mulch paper without PPE at later stage of rite growth due to the occurrence of Ludwigia prostrata in 1996. Few weeds occurred even in non-mulched plot without herbicide in 1997, rending difficulties in evaluating the efficacy of mulch paper in weed control, However, it could be deduced from the durability of mulch paper that paper mulching would have had sufficient efficacy of weed control. Rice yield was only 185kg/10a in the plot without mulching and weed control, but 657kg/10a and 771kg/10a in the paper(PPE treated) mulching plot with 12kgN/10a and 18kgN/10a, respectively, in 1996. The paper mulching plot showed rice yield similar to the weed control plot with herbicide in 1997. It would be concluded that paper mulching could ensure effective weed control and as high yield as the conventional rice cultivation with herbicidal weed control if the corresponding amount of basal nitrogen fertilizer is increased instead of omitting the nitrogen fertilizer at tillering stage.

Recently we are interest in organic farming of rice. The technology of paper mulching was practised without herbicide in machine transplanting cultivation of paddy. A field experiment was conducted in Gangseo series (coarse loamy, mixed, nonacid, mesic family of Aquic Fluventic Eutrochrepts) at the National Institute of Crop Science (NICS), RDA, Suwon, Gyeonggi province, Republic of Korea in 2004. This experiment was carried out to evaluate soil redox potential, weed control and rice growth by the different organic matter in paper mulching transplanting. Compost, rice straw and soiling rye were incorporated as organic matter. The nitrogen amount of controlled-release fertilizer (CRF) plot was 80% compared with nitrogen amount ($110kg\;ha^{-1}$) of conventional fertilization. Mulching paper consisted of recycled paper which was coated with biodegradable plastics. There were no difference between conventional rice transplanting and paper mulching on missing hills after organic matter application. Weed control were the highest at added soiling rye plot. The redox potential of soil was the lowest in rice straw + CRF 80% plot at tillering stage. The $NH_4{^+}-N$ in soil was the highest at soiling rye + CRF 80% tillering stage. There was no difference in yield between soiling rye + CRF 80%, compost + CRF 80% and conventional fertilization plot.

For the environmental protection, it is more desirable to use compost rather than chemical fertilizer. So in this paper, the effects of compost upon the rice quality were investigated with Hwajin Rice as the test variety. The rice quality and physicochemical characteristics were examined and the resrlts are as follows. As to the rice quality, the rate of polished rice was high in the non-fertilizer and the compost plot, the degree of transparency was high in the order of the traditional, the compost+urea, the compost and the non-fertilizer plot. The amylose content (one of the physicochemical characteristies of the rice), the rate of Mg/K, and the adhesivity and the cohesion power (charateristies of texturogram which show the density of boiled rice) were also high in the compost polt. Among the amylogram characteristics, the gelatinization temperature was lowest in the compost plot ; the lowest and the highest degree of viscosity and the break down were also inclined to be higher in the compost plot than in the traditional plot. After the soil test, the components of available phosphorus, organic matters, calcium, magnesium, potassinm and silicate increased in the soil as compared with those before test.

The construction of adobe houses in flood prone areas is a common practice. These houses collapse when hydraulic loads from flood exerts on the houses. The failure occurs because the adobe brick lacks strength. In order to improve strength of adobe brick, the effects of agriculture waste therefore rice straw, rice husk and rice husk ash as a stabilizing agent have been explored in this paper. The compressive strength test and splitting test was conducted on the adobe specimens which were stabilized with 2% rice straws, 2% rice husk and 2% rice husk ash by the dry weight of soil. The results showed the improvement in strength and elasticity of specimens containing rice straws & rice husk. Whereas with the addition of rice husk ash, the adobe loses its strength and showed plastic behavior.

Recently the attention of the trace elements in arisen to the biochemical importances and the biochemical significances have been discussed and shown by several workers. And also UN-narcotic Committee has shown that geographical difference of Optimum based on the produced area, would be significant on its contents of trace elements. The problem of Rice in Korea is urgently important on the nutritional and agricultural view points for the soil improvement of its production and for the betterment of health program. In order to check the adaptability of cultural problems to the different qualities of the with regards to the kinds of rice spieces and in order to know the comsumption of trace elements through rice, the contents of trace elements on 40 samples of the polished rice sampled from the different areas consisting in 8 kinds of rice species are studied on contents of Al, MN, Ni, Zn, Co, Cu and Fe in this paper. Though the further wide spread studies should be carried out. It seems that Al, Fe and Ni contents show little differences by the kinds of rices species and Cu, Al, Mn, Zn, and Ni contents show geographically little differences. But these differences are not significant statistically. The Co was not detected from the rice samples. It is not clear whether Co content in rice is a undetectable amount or the Co is absent in rice at all.

Using the $Methionine-2-C^{14}$, the metabolism of methionine to the experimental rats on rice diet was studied comparing with that to the rats on stock diet in this paper. The National Institute of Health strain of weaning albino rats were housed into the individual cages deviding into 2 groups, the rice diet (RD) group and the stock diet (SD) group, and fed on rice diet and stock diet respectively for 10 weeks. On the day of experiment, the rats were parenterally administered. the $methionine-2-C^{14}$ solution after fasting over night. And then the rats were sacrificed by ether anesthesia by time being of one, three, six, and twelve hours each and the organs, pituitary gland, pancreas, spleen, liver, and kidney, were taken out for the determinations of radioactivities. And also the excretion of radioactivities through urine were determined by time being. The radioactivities were determined by Autoscaler SC-51 using the planchets. The results of radioactivities of urine excretion were shown at table 3 and the results of radioactivities distibutions in the organs by time being after parenteral administration of $methionine-2-C^{14}$ were shown table 4 in the original paper. According to the results, the following are summarized; 1. The growth experiment result of rats on. rice diet and stock diet were same as shown by the previous workers indicating significant growth inhibition at the rice diet group. 2. Due to the result of radioactivity excretion through urine after administration of $methionine-2-C^{14}$, it might he considered that methionine in the rice diet seems to be limited. However, it seems to be not 주 mostly limited. 3. And due to the results of radioactivity distribution in the organs by time being, the radioactivity in the liver tissue showed appearently higher readings at this methionine study compared with the results at the lysine study shown by HAW and his co-worker. This might be interpreted, though it is not clear, that liver might require methionine as a deficient amino acid at the tissue because methionine is limited at the rice diet.

In this paper, we present a strain-sensitive composite skin-like film made up of piezoresistive zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods embedded in a flexible poly(dimethylsiloxane) substrate, with added reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to facilitate connections between the nanorod clusters and increase strain sensitivity. Preparation of the composite is described in detail. Cyclic strain sensing tests are conducted. Experiments indicate that the resulting ZnO-PDMS/rGO composite film is strain-sensitive and thus capable of sensing cycling strain accurately. As such, it has the potential to be molded on to a structure (civil, mechanical, aerospace, or biological) in order to provide a strain sensing skin.

Bio-diesel oil is a great possibility to solve the pollution problem caused by the exhaust gas from diesel engine vehicles. Recently the use of bio-oils in disel engines has received considerable attention to the forseeable depletion of world oil supplies. So, Bio-diesel oil has been attracted with attentions as an alternative and clean energy source. The objective of this paper is to experimentally investigate the characteristic of performance using light oil, rice-bran oil, heated rice-bran oil, rice-bran oil treated with ultrasonic energy. We included rice-bran oil and applied ultrasonic energy to highly viscous bio-oils. These methods seems to have never been tried yet. The final data may be able to be applicated for the design of the diesel engine using an alternative fuel.

It is important to understand pedigree of rice cultivars commonly used for breeding. In this paper, pedigree tables for tracking the pedigree of 17 representative rice cultivars recommended by Rural development Adminstration (RDA) were completed and analyzed using two kinds of web database system; 'IRIS' and 'RRDB'. Seven cultivars, namely, 'Sangmibyeo', 'Ilpumbyeo', 'Saegewhabyeo', 'Surabyeo', 'Shindongjinbyeo', 'Ilmibyeo' and 'Jungwhabyeo' had 'Koshihikari' on the pedigree of their ancestor. Besides 'Koshihikari', the most feguently used ancestral germplasms among the high quality rice cultivars were 'Fujisaka 5', 'Kameno o' and 'Asahi', 'Fujisaka 5' was used as ancestral parent in 12 out of 17 cultivars. Interestingly, 'Kameno o' was used in pedigree of 16 out of 17 high quality varieties and 'Asahi' was used in the ancestral pedigree of all 17 varieties. 'Hwayeongbyeo' was used as one of parent in the breeding of 'Dongjin 1', 'Hwabongbyeo', 'Saegewhabyeo' and 'Junambyeo'. 'Ilpumbyeo' was used in the breeding pathway of 'Junambyeo' and 'Saegewhabyeo', 'Mangeumbyeo' itself was not enlisted as one of high quality rice cultivars, but was used as a breeding parent of three high quality varieties, namely, 'Saegewhabyeo', 'Hwabongbyeo' and 'Nampyeongbyeo'. Incorporated with evaluation data, pedigree will provide a valuable chance to genealogical tracking of agronomic traits such as disease resistance, grain quality and etc.
