摘要: Primary resource industries considering adaptation action in response to current or future climate changes need consider the adaptive capacity of their constituent members if an industry-wide is occur. In particular, they know extent which adapt exists and whether it can be enhanced. We focus on role change awareness influencing within Australian primary industry that already experiencing impacts change. Climate producers relate prioritise as a driver assess using four fairly representative statements. Adaptive human potential convert existing resources into successful strategies. basis knowledge comprising essential dimensions: (1) management risk uncertainty, (2) skills planning, learning reorganising, (3) financial emotional flexibility, (4) interest adapting. A telephone survey was completed by 69 peanut Queensland representing 88% rate 90%. empirically show have higher also at least three dimensions capacity. Our results suggest may worth investing supporting broad-scale planning successful.
