Abstract

Korean type of no-tillage cultivation method which was applied on this study used the ridge and the furrow and constantly recycling them as it was suitable for Korea's weather and farming conditions. This no-tillage cultivation was reported to have little negative impact such as reduction of production (Kwon et al., 1997). In addition, it was found to have a lot of benefits as it requires less agro-materials and energy costs as well as shortened working hours because tillage operation is not needed. (Yang et al., 2012). According to an analysis, no-tillage cultivation can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by $344.7kgCO^2$ (58%) in every 10a ($1,000m^2$) compared to ordinary pepper farming technique (Korea averages). Direct-indirect reduction effects from using fertilizer and using less amount of energy were 92% and 44% respectively both of which can be considered very high. Besides the direct effects of no-tillage cultivation, soil management using no-tillage technique raises carbon sequestration effect on soil as time goes on (West & Marland, 2002), that is why the technique is expected to have constant carbon emission reduction effect. For theses reasons, distribution and expansion of Korean type no-tillage cultivation are expected to play a role as major agro-green technologies for achieving our goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in agricultural sector.

본 연구에 적용된 한국형 무경운(no-tillage)농법은 한국의 기상특성 및 농업현실에 맞도록 초기 두둑을 형성한 후 이를 지속적으로 재활용하는 방식을 적용하였다. 한국형 무경운 농법은 생산량 저하 등 부정적인 영향이 거의 없는 것으로 보고되었으며 경운작업 등 농자재사용은 크게 절감되는 효과로 인하여 에너지 및 농자재 비용의 절감과 노동시간 단축 등 긍정적인 효과가 높은 것으로 보고되었다(Yang et al., 2012). 무경운농법에 의한 고추재배는 일반적인 고추재배 방식과(국가평균) 비교하여 10a ($1,000m^2$)당 $344.7kgCO_2$(58%)의 온실가스저감 효과를 갖는 것으로 분석되었다. 이 중 비료절감에 의한 직-간접효과가 92%, 에너지사용 절감에 의한 효과는 44%로 높은 탄소저감효과를 나타내었다. 또한, 무경운농법의 직접적인 효과에 부가하여 무경운방식의 토양관리는 일반적으로 시간이 흐를수록 토양의 탄소격리 효과가(carbon sequestration effect) 높아지는 특징을 갖고 있기 때문에 연속적인 무경운농법을 수행할 경우 연구대상지의 지속적인 탄소저감 효과가 기대된다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 한국형 무경운농법은 농업부문 국가온실가스 저감목표 달성을 위한 주요한 녹색농업기술(agro-green technologies)로서 역할을 수행할 것으로 기대되며, 관련기술의 보급 및 확대를 위한 국가적 차원의 노력이 절실히 요구된다.
