Abstract

The objective of this study was to establish the decision criteria of land suitability for red pepper using soil morphological and physical properties. The investigation was carried out in Jechen, Goesan, Euiseong, Andong, Gochang and Pyongchang district in Korea. The obtained results showed that factors related to the decision criteria of the land suitability for red pepper cultivation were soil texture, soil drainage class, land slope, available soil depth and stone content. The criteria of the best suitable soil for red pepper was coarse loamy, well drainage class, C-slope (7-15%), 10-20% gravel content and available soil depth deeper than 100 cm. Also in the best suitable soil, hardpan was located below 100 cm from the soil surface. Outbreak rate of phytophthora blight occurred well in the soils with high clay content, poor drainage class, low land slope and low gravel content. Database determining the decision criteria of the land suitability for red pepper in Jinchen-gun was established by Arc info GIS tool.

고추 주산단지인 충북 제천, 괴산, 경북 의성, 안동 전남 고창 및 강원 평창 등 6개 지역 119 농가포장을 중심으로 실시한 세부정밀토양조사 결과에 의해 밝혀진 토성, 배수 등급, 경사, 석력함량, 유효토심 등의 토양특성과 고추 수량을 비교하여 고추 재배지의 적지기준을 설정하였다. 고추재배지의 토양물리성과 고추수량을 비교하여보면 사양질의 토성, 양호한 배수, 7-15%의 경사, 석력함량 10-20%, 유효토심 100 cm 이상, 경반층 깊이가 100 cm 이상이며 암반노출이 없는 토양에서 수량이 가장 높았다. 고추의 역병 발병율은 점토함량이 많고, 배수가 불량하고. 포장의 경사가 완만하며 석력함량이 적을수록 높아지는 경향이었다. 충북 진천군에 고추 재배적지 기준을 적용한 결과 최적지 22.5,% 적지 21.3%, 가능지 16.0%, 저위생산지 40.2%로 나타났으며 타 지역도 적용할 수 있는 지리정보기반을 구축하였다.
