Table 2 The five most important resilience items/questions/determinants (the bold text is used to highlight the item/issue/topic in question)

From: The determinants of a resilient food system for Finland in the 2020s—three opinion polls for improvements based on a Delphi study among food system experts

 

Mean valuea

Cluster 1: Lacking efficient and consensual global crisis preparedness (item/question/determinant)

1. Increasing domestic renewable energy (RE) production from current levels would improve resilience

4.70

2. Crop selection and crop rotations should be diversified to promote primary production resilience

4.70

3. Dependence on import of inputs does not jeopardise food security in crisis situations

4.67

4. The mental well-being of employees is currently adequate in terms of resilience

4.67

5. Poor economic viability of primary production hinders the implementation of preparatory measures for resilience

4.60

6. Society and food system actors are prepared with adequate backup systems for crisis situations to maintain food security

4.60

Cluster 2: Looking after the domestic food system (item/question/determinant)

1. Poor economic viability of primary production hinders the implementation of preparatory measures for resilience

4.48

2. Independence from imported inputs is currently sufficient from a resilience perspective

4.48

3. Dependence on imports of inputs does not jeopardise food security in crisis situations

4.43

4. The costs of promoting resilience are evenly distributed in the food system

4.39

5. Increasing domestic renewable energy (RE) production from current levels would improve resilience

4.35

6. Cooperation between food system operators is currently sufficiently open and trust building in terms of resilience

4.35

Cluster 3: Trusting the current good efforts in resilience building (item/question/determinant)

1. Cooperation between food system operators is currently sufficiently open and trust building in terms of resilience

4.60

4.60

3. Society and food system actors are prepared with adequate backup systems for crisis situations to maintain food security

4.60

4. Dependence on imports of inputs does not jeopardise food security in crisis situations

4.40
