Abstract: Abstract As diseases, natural disasters, and man-made disruptions become more frequent and severe, enhancing the resilience of agri-food supply chain operations poses an increasing challenge.This study aims to identify and analyze the key capabilities and impact factors contributing to agri-food supply chain resilience (AFSCRE). By conducting a comprehensive literature review and engaging in expert consultations, fifteen significant capability factors were identified. We utilized the decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) technique to determine and categorize AFSCRE factors into cause and effect groups. Subsequently, we employed interpretive structural modelling and a cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification (ISM-MICMAC) to establish interrelationships among these factors. The results indicated supply chain leadership is a fundamental factor for fostering AFSCRE, which is located at the bottom level of ISM hierarchy. Moreover, the study identifies the importance of government support in developing AFSCRE. The findings of this study can guide supply chain leaders and government officials to initiate targeted activities for improving resilience.
