Abstract

Onions are grown in a few specific regions of Korea that depend on the climate and the regional characteristic of the production area. Therefore, when onion yields are to be estimated, it is reasonable to use a statistical model in which both the climate and the region are considered simultaneously. In this paper, using a spatial panel regression model, we predicted onion yields with the different weather conditions of the regions. We used the spatial auto regressive (SAR) model that reflects the spatial lag, and panel data of several climate variables for 13 main onion production areas from 2006 to 2015. The spatial weight matrix was considered for the model by the threshold value method and the nearest neighbor method, respectively. Autocorrelation was detected to be significant for the best fitted model using the nearest neighbor method. The random effects model was chosen by the Hausman test, and the significant climate variables of the model were the cumulative duration time of sunshine (January), the average relative humidity (April), the average minimum temperature (June), and the cumulative precipitation (November).

노지에서 재배되는 양파 생산량은 기후환경에 의하여 영향을 받으며, 특정 지역에서 많이 생산되는 지역적인 특성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 생산량 예측시 기상과 지역을 동시에 고려하는 접근이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 공간 패널 회귀모형을 이용하여 기상변화에 따른 생산량을 추정하였다. 양파 주산지 13곳에 대한 2006년부터 2015년까지의 기상 패널자료를 사용하여, 공간시차를 반영한 공간자기회귀(spatial autoregressive)모형을 사용하였다. 공간가중치 행렬은 임계치 설정방법과 최근거리 설정방법으로 나누어 분석하여, 최근 3곳까지 거리 설정방법을 사용한 모형이 최종 모형으로 선택되었으며, 자기상관성이 유의함을 보였다. 하우스만 검정을 통해 채택된 확률효과모형으로 분석한 결과 누적일조시간(1월), 평균상대습도(4월), 평균최저기온(6월), 누적강수량(11월) 등이 양파 생산량 예측에 유의한 변수로 나타났다.
