| Abstract:
In the result of temperature measure of two low-temperature storage rooms, the average temperature was 0.92 ±0.27 in the improved system though it was 1.00 ±0.88 in the farm conventional practice, respectively. The cut-flower height at flowering time in the improved system was 119 to 121 cm, though that of the farm conventional practices was 92 to 106 cm. The shoot emergence of bulbs stored for about 8 months per the same storage position (8 positions) of the low-temperature storage room in the improved system was 1.3 to 4.3 cm, though the farm conventional practices was 0.2 to 5.5 cm after 1 week of defrosting. After two weeks of frosting shoots were 3.6 to 14.6 cm and 6.2 to 8.4 cm, respectively. In the long run, we think that the low-temperature storage room of farm conventional practices will be rapidly replaced with the improved system in Korea. | |
