Resilience & Sustainability
Where Does Crop Insurance
Fit In?
By Dr. James Houx and Dr. Mechel Paggi, NCIS
Semantics with Distinction
Sustainability and resiliency are terms that are
not new in agriculture and resource management.
While the terms have different definitions based
on economic, social, environmental, and ecological
context, they are not mutually exclusive. To
be sustainable, one might say that a practice or
action must also be resilient. In turn, resiliency
fosters sustainability. The inter-linkage of these
terms has broad impacts relating to food production,
land use change, Green House Gas (GHG)
emissions, and the list goes on and on.
On the farm or landscape level, agricultural
sustainability as defined by Iris Lewandowski in a
1999 issue of Crop Science suggests " agricultural
crop production is (ecologically) sustainable if
the productivity as well as the ability to function
(among other things the regenerative power and
the buffering capacity) of the open system within
which plants are cultivated, are permanently
maintained to the fullest extent. " The definition
further implies that to be sustainable, the agricultural
ecosystem and its components are not
irreversibly altered over the long run. The term
buffering capacity used here is an older term borFarmers
widely use conservation practices to keep cropping systems sustainable. Contour farming
is practiced in the upper Mississippi River watershed to reduce erosion and maintain soil health.
