  • Summary

    This chapter describes the resilience of horticultural family farming in Central-Eastern Poland to particular challenges (economic, environmental, social and institutional) and assesses the past resilience capacities (robustness, adaptability and transformability) and the future strategies of enhancing the main resilience attributes (diversity, openness, tightness of feedback, reserves and modularity) of this farming system (FS). The theoretical background of the approach is provided in Meuwissen et al. (2019) while the overview of the findings is presented in the Factsheet (Annex 13.1). It summarizes the main features of the resilience framework in the context of the Polish case study, starting with a definition of the farming system, through to challenges, essential functions, resilience capacities and attributes, ending with the positioning of the system on the adaptive cycle and derivation of future resilience strategies proposed by stakeholders participating in SURE-Farm workshops and interviews.
