조사논문 : 농업경영체 등록정보 데이터베이스를 이용해 확인한 농업활동의 공간적 분포양상

As comprehensive and descriptive research, this study is mainly aimed at identifying whether and where the agglomerations of agricultural sectors are in the spatial context of the agricultural activities of Korean farms. In doing so, we utilize the full information on individual farms` locations and operation conditions on the Farm Business Registration Database covering almost whole farms operating their businesses and being superior to another completed survey, the Agricultural Census in terms of accuracy and coverage. As the results, the idiosyncratic agglomeration patterns of sectors and products including corns, chilies and beans could be identified by using Moran`s I and Local Moran`s I, which are analytical tools specializing in testing spatial dependences on spatial data.
