Abstract

This research aimed to identify the degree of farmers' implementationof Orobranchial integrated control techniques in the old lands at El Behira Governorate, their sources of information, the most important problems facing them, and their suggestions for the advancement of the crop.  the 3 largest administrative districts in terms of the area planted with the faba bean in 2021 were selected. These districts were Abu Homs, Adku and Dillingat, in three villages, namely, Tolimbat Bersiq, Debono, and Qamaha. Data were collected from November 2021 to January 2022 using a personal interview questionnaire with 269 respondents. The results showed a low level of respondents' implementationof integrated control techniques. Agricultural control techniques came at the fore, followed by chemical and biological control, whose implementationrate was very low among the respondents. The most important constraints facing implementing these techniques were lack of knowledge about the extension recommendations related to these methods (88.48%) and lack of confidence in the agricultural extension recommendations (85.36%), the absence of the extension role (75.09%), and lack of tools to implement these methods (69.14%). Their most important suggestions were to devise resistance varieties with high productivity to Orobranche (78.81%), set an indicative selling price before planting time (77.32%), support the cooperatives' role by providing production requirements at an appropriate price (75.09%), and apply the contract farming system 64.06%. In the end, the study recommends planning extension programs aimed to learn farmers about integrated control methods for Orobanche and implementing extension activities based on practical clarification in farmers' fields.
