The critical Incident technique was deployed to study the detrimental effect of Cuscuta reflexa on dairy animals. In the present study, the critical incidences were farmers’ fields where berseem was infested with Cuscuta reflexa and farmers were feeding that contaminated berseem to dairy animals. Thus, face-to-face interaction was done with 13 farmers of Malpur and Ganeshpur village of Bareilly district for the same incidences in the years 2021 and 2022. Based on farmers’ response it was observed that due to gradual feeding of berseem contaminated with Cuscuta reflexa on an average there was a reduction in milk yield of 5.35 L/day in 2021 and 3.35 L/day in 2022 of dairy animals. The annual economic loss was calculated as Rs. 27322/- in 2021 and Rs. 20048.57/- in 2022. The reduction in milk yield (68.67%) shares the maximum percentage of economic loss followed by replacement cost (25.38%), and then treatment cost (5.95%).

This study was conducted in Hatay and Mardin provinces to investigate the tendency of farmers to use social media, the difficulties they face during the use of social media and the variables affecting the use of social media by farmers. The research consisted of data obtained from a face-to-face survey of 221 producers using proportional sampling method. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis, and chi-square analysis was used to examine the relationships between variables. The results showed that the rate of producers using social media was 77.8% in Mardin province and 73.8% in Hatay province. Additionally, farmers mostly use social media for communication with families and access to new news. Also, the most commonly used social media applications in both provinces were WhatsApp and Facebook. As a result of this research, it was determined that farmers don’t use social media sufficiently for agricultural activities, and it was suggested that farmers’ organizations and related institutions should carry out information activities for farmers to encourage farmers to use social media efficiently.
