“…These impacts are likely to become more frequent or intense in a changing climate (IPCC, 2014;Zhang et al, 2020), and thus it is increasingly important to understand the barriers and drivers to strengthen farmers' adaptive capacity-the available resources or assets to mitigate, prepare for, counter, and recover from impacts (Brooks and Adger, 2005;Gallopín, 2006;Wisner et al, 2012;Cinner et al, 2018;Barnes et al, 2020;Phillips et al, 2020). Since farmers are embedded within socialecological systems, it is important to recognize that adaptive capacity is comprised of various determinants that may extend beyond the individual to the institutional or systemic levels: political regulations, poverty, vulnerability to extreme events, and others (Reed et al, 2013;Shinbrot et al, 2019;Doran et al, 2020). Hence, when evaluating adaptive capacity, its determinants must be considered across scales (Adger, 2006;.…”
