Abstract: Farm general resilience, i.e. capacity to deal with the unknown, uncertainty and surprise, is increasingly considered a must in today's uncertain and changing context. To measure this resilience, assessments against predefined resilience properties (e.g. diversity, connectivity) are gaining currency. We posit that these assessments neglect a key dimension of farming activity: working conditions of farmers and other farm workers.
