BRIEF INFO:

Family Farm Members’ Stress and Coping Experiences

SYNOPSIS:

This brief describes research that sought to understand how farm families use coping strategies to deal with recurring stressors. Respondents participated in in-depth interviews in which they identified stressors and talked about how they coped with the stress. A pattern of reframing emerged across the responses, as they looked at the positive aspects of working with family, being in nature, and their farmer identity.
