COVID-19 pandemic infected the world in 2019 and resulted in quarantines and isolation measures that have proven to contain the virus. The isolation exercise had caused drastic changes to normal daily activities, primarily affecting interpersonal relations among humans, where most interactions have now taken place digitally. As a result of these changes, daily online usage has increased with social network applications, including Instagram, dominating the world's most visited websites. This internet platform's usage is mainly for finding information, connecting with loved ones, and keeping up-to-date with news and happenings worldwide. This emerging phenomenon has progressively shifted the communication landscape of both the personal and the business world. These entities of traditional sources are now being integrated with improved online mediators. Recent studies have also highlighted how the interactions of global societies on digital media like Instagram impacted society's education, social life, leisure, and health. Therefore, this systematic review paper is timely to analyze the existing literature on the use of Instagram during the COVID-19 pandemic and provides further insights in highlighting the extended usage and functions of Instagram during an emergency state like the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on PRISMA Statement (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses), a systematic review of four (4) main processes was conducted on Scopus 65 related studies: identification, screening, eligibility and data analysis. Of the 65 articles that have been reviewed, only 42 articles were finally selected for further analysis. Findings of the analysis revealed four main themes -the use of Instagram for research (two subthemes), to market products, as a basis for information tools (two subthemes) and for social activity during the pandemic. The ultimate presentation of this paper provides several recommendations with in-depth deliberation. Based on the review, it was found that Instagram was used for information search related to the COVID-19 pandemic and for research (particularly research related to the pandemic and online questionnaire distribution due to movement control order restriction to conduct fieldwork manually). Furthermore, Instagram was used to market

“…Recently, in the last twelve months, there appeared new articles emphasizing the role of e-commerce and the role of social factors in accelerating globalization processes during the COVID-19 pandemic (Mukhisa, 2020). This topic is considered from different perspectives, the impact of a pandemic on different industries (Hillen, 2021), its influence on SMEs (Anacleto et al, 2020), marketing applications as well as the organizational and technological improvements supporting online sales (He et al, 2021;Pantano et al, 2020) as well as the risk analyzed from the point of view of international e-commerce and related globalization processes (Sharma et al, 2020). At present, the issue dominates the contemporary literature on the subject (Chmielarz et al, 2021).…”

Purpose:The primary objective of this article is to identify the differences in the opinions concerning the impact of e-commerce on the broadly perceived globalization processes in two selected countries, Poland and Turkey, at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. The two countries examined as part of the research are culturally distinct. However, they also represent a similar level of development in terms of Internet-based solutions. Design/Methodology/Approach: In this study, the authors have applied a dedicated questionnaire, which enabled them to collect data covering the sample of 459 Polish and Turkish respondents. The survey findings were compared, considering the percentage differences, the city distance, and Euclidean distance. The research results were obtained using a survey questionnaire completed by individual, active Internet users from both countries. The structure of the paper includes the presentation of the issue against the background of literature, methodological assumptions of the study, its findings, discussions, and conclusions. Findings: The research findings confirmed the existence of significant differences between Poland and Turkey as regards the respondents' perception of the place and role of e-commerce and their influence on globalization processes, in particular in the categories related to payments for products/services in e-commerce as well as the impact of information technologies on globalization. Practical Implications: The discovered in the conducted research similarities and differences in the assessments of the impact of e-commerce on globalization processes in Poland and Turkey may enormously enhance the understanding of differences between described countries and give essential knowledge for developing the new product in the e-commerce area. Originality/Value: The present study contributes to creating new knowledge concerning the similarities and differences in the assessments of the impact of e-commerce on globalization processes in Poland and Turkey.

“…In addition to the consumption of horticultural products, ornamentals, and aesthetic products also represent a vital sector of the horticulture industry. The outbreak of COVID-19 precipitated significant changes in the production and purchase of these products [10,11]. Stringent lockdown mandates negatively affected floral shops by forcing them to alter operating hours, reducing customers and sales [10,12].…”

“…The outbreak of COVID-19 precipitated significant changes in the production and purchase of these products [10,11]. Stringent lockdown mandates negatively affected floral shops by forcing them to alter operating hours, reducing customers and sales [10,12]. Additionally, the canceling or postponement of public social events (e.g., weddings, funerals) led to a decrease in demand for luxury perishable ornamental items, such as cut flowers, forcing many producers to destroy unsold supplies [11].…”

The horticulture industry provides significant contributions to society, including healthy foods, economic development, recreation and leisure activities, among others. However, there are critical issues facing the horticulture industry which should be illuminated to ensure ongoing vitality and relevance, particularly within the COVID-19 pandemic context. The present study used the Delphi Technique to identify the most critical issues facing the horticulture industry as perceived by a panel of industry experts. Data were collected from February to October 2020 and thus preceded the initial declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic through the lifting of stay-at-home orders in most states. The expert panel arrived at a consensus on 34 specific issues, five of which were specifically related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Using the Constant Comparative Method, the issues were thematically analyzed and grouped into five primary categories, including (alphabetically ordered): (1) disease and pest management, (2) education, research, and recruitment, (3) environmental conditions and natural resource availability, (4) labor challenges and considerations, and (5) production challenges and innovations. The results of the study provide a framework for both academic and practitioner audiences to identify critical focus areas for the industry within a COVID-19 context.
