Abstract

Korean melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an environment in which most farming work can affect the increase in musculoskeletal diseases, and the stems are attracted to the ground in order to grow no-heating cultivation. In this study, growth and productivity were compared according to the type of high-bed. The narrower the surface area at the bottom of the high-bed, the faster the initial growth, which was advantageous. The bed is which the height if 70 cm, the surface temperature has risen due to the increase in direct solar radiation inflow since April, requiring side light blocking to block the inflow of solar radiation. In terms of fruit quality, the 200 cm width treatment had higher fruit sugar content and better hardness than the 160 cm treatment. From April to September, the total yield was 6.8 kg/plant of treatment A, 8.7 kg/plant of treatment B, 5.8 kg/plant of treatment C, treatment B mainly 50% higher than treatment C, and 27% higher than treatment A. Therefore, the bed form suitable for Korean melon high bed is 200 cm wide, 40 cm high between the surface and the bed, and the surface of the passage between the beds is 30cm high from the ground to the bed.

참외는 무가온 재배를 위해 줄기는 지면에 포복형으로 유인하는데 대부분의 농작업이 근골격계 질환 증가에 영향을 줄 수 있는 환경이다. 본 연구에서는 참외 고설베드 형태에 따른 생육과 생산성을 비교하였다. 고설베드 하단부 지표면적이 좁을수록 초기 생육이 빨라 저온기 관리에 유리하였다. 베드의 높이는 70cm일 경우 4월 이후 직달 태양복사량 유입증가로 지표면 온도가 상승하여 태양복사 유입 차단을 위한 측면부 차광이 필요하였다. 과실 품질은 폭이 200cm인 처리구가 160cm 처리구보다 과실당도가 높고, 경도도 우수하였다. 4월에서 9월까지 총 수확량은 A 처리구 6.8kg/주, B 처리구 8.7kg/주, C 처리구 5.8kg/주로 B 처리구가 C 처리구보다 50% A 처리구보다 27% 높았다. 따라서 참외 고설베드에 적합한 베드의 형태는 베드 폭 200cm, 지표면과 베드사이 높이는 40cm 하고 베드사이 통로쪽 지표면을 30cm 파서 작업자가 작업을 할 때 지면에서 베드까지 높이를 70cm로 제작한 구조가 참외 생육을 위한 엽면적을 확보에 유리하고 농작업 환경도 개선에 가장 적합한 것으로 확인되었다.
