21 pages, via online journal, How an agricultural organization handles the way the media reports a crisis can have an impact on the public’s perceptions of the organization, and sometimes the industry as a whole. The popularity of social media outlets as a venue for disseminating and gathering information and news makes the use of social media surrounding agricultural crises an important topic to investigate (Glynn, Huge, & Hoffman 2012; Hermida, 2010). A qualitative case study was conducted to investigate the use of social media tools during an agricultural crisis. The participants – communications directors, social media managers, and individuals with a close connection to the crisis under study – reported that social media was a major component of their communication efforts surrounding each crisis. Participants felt social media was very effective in these situations and had a major impact on their communication efforts. Although no participants reported using a structured social media strategy or crisis communication plan, they stated a need for such guidelines in the agricultural industry. From the data analyzed in this study, a model for using social media during a crisis situation, aimed specifically for use by those in the agricultural industry, was developed. This project was funded through the USDA's Beginning Farmers & Ranchers Project.

"As communicators, we are caretakers of an industry - one of the most important industries in the history of humankind. It is our duty as students and teachers of agriculture to learn, as efficiently and thoroughly as we can, the skills needed to tell a positive story about agriculture through words, pictures and Web site content. This book will help you in that goal." (p. xiii)
6 p., The Mauritius Sugar Industry Research Instititute (MSIRI) maintains a Library and Scientific Information Service to serve the research staff. Major responsibilities are the acqusition, collection, evaluation and dissemination of information required to support the research and development program. After a brief discussion of the internal lines of communication with the Institute, this paper describes the various communication channels (e.g. talks, meetings, visits, demonstrations, field days, publications) wihich are utilized for the transfer of research results into practice. The creation of Farmers' Service Centers has allowed an improvement of the linkage between MSIRI and small planters.
