Global and regional management and governance will need to establish integrative models considering agro-ecological, social and economic factors to increase resilience of food production. The paper discusses an integrated concept for the analysis of adaptive capacities of regions to climate change. Data generation and analyses is carried out along three dimensions:

1. The agricultural production process has to be defined whether the cultivation only or further food processing in a sense of supply chain should be scrutinised.

2. Regional stakeholders of the production process have to be identified. Six categories are usually alleged: process holders, ecology, society, customers, market and finance.

These two dimensions are representing the state of the art in evaluating projects or programs. Here quantitative and qualitative data are used. By involving stakeholders (face to face interviews, workshops) some regional specific indicators will come up.

The third dimension makes the difference. It expresses three sustainability goals pre-structured by principles of multilateral organisations and European Union strategic policy intentions which can be seen as a democratically legitimated basis for a trans-disciplinary dialogue and a discourse between science and society.

This methodology can be applied as a self assessment and a benchmarking tool as well. The combination with a participative generated regional development concept could establish a feedback loop to enhance dialog between science and society. Resilience means then the availability of societal options for a flexible response to climate change effects.
