Introduction
Through extensive research and analysis of global warming, the average temperature of the earth has risen 1.5°C per year, over the past 100 years. Meanwhile the winter seasons have been reduced, and summer seasons have lengthened. Thus advancing the flowering season later in during spring. As a result, the agricultural cultivation area has been extended northward and the damage by blight and harmful insects during the winter has increased. This has caused the decrease in agricultural productivity. Therefore we need to devise a strategy for this environmental situation, such as considering raising a variety of fruits and vegetables. Nowadays, it is possible to cultivate different tropical plants in Korea.
Scientific diagnosis and evaluation of the impacts of climate change on the agricultural sector is very important in establishing future visions of the agricultural industry and the direction of its policies. This provides useful information for establishing adaptive plans such as long-term regional agricultural and farming plans.
With the different issues concerning our cultivation practices and environmental conservations, a new policy should be in effect. Recently the Korean government announced a new policy, named Low carbon and green development. The purpose of this policy is to reduce environmental pollution and carbon-dioxide in agriculture. The promotion of measure is being made by various circles. This is one of popular topic in Korea now.
