Abstract
Abstract We analyse how agricultural extension services affect farm resilience using the Post-Russian Invasion Survey of Smallholder Farmers in Ukraine for 2022–3. Farm household resilience is measured using the Resilience Capacity Index (RCI), constructed from Adaptive Capacity (AC), Assets (AST), Social Safety Nets (SSN), and Sensitivity (S). To address the heterogeneity problem, Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) defines homogenous resilience profiles. The manuscript also examines a causal relationship by incorporating treatment effects into latent analysis. The results reveal that extension service receivers experience higher levels of AST and SSN. The extension service has a positive effect on RCI levels.
期刊介绍:
The European Review of Agricultural Economics serves as a forum for innovative theoretical and applied agricultural economics research.
The ERAE strives for balanced coverage of economic issues within the broad subject matter of agricultural and food production, consumption and trade, rural development, and resource use and conservation. Topics of specific interest include multiple roles of agriculture; trade and development; industrial organisation of the food sector; institutional dynamics; consumer behaviour; sustainable resource use; bioenergy; agricultural, agri-environmental and rural policy; specific European issues.
Methodological articles are welcome. All published papers are at least double peer reviewed and must show originality and innovation. The ERAE also publishes book reviews.
