        The purpose of this research, which is a descriptive research with qualitative approach. Identification of agricultural entrepreneurship barriers in university education in Isfahan province. The statistical population consists of knowledgeable entrepreneurs from different fields of agriculture, which is estimated at 40. And all members were examined. Required data were collected through a semi-structured exploratory interview. Using content analysis strategy, 26 items were extracted. The categories were presented to the statistical population in a questionnaire and their degree of importance was asked based on the Likert spectrum. Then, using exploratory factor analysis, SPSS software was used to identify the variables. The KMO value was 0,829 and the value of the Bartlett test was 3328.763 which was significant at 99%. The results of factor analysis showed that the total variance explained by the five factors extracted from the studied items was 69.221%. In this research, motivational and attitudinal barriers, structural barriers, educational barriers, economic and environmental obstacles and personality barriers were explained by 17.11%, 17.066%, 14.336%, 11.465% and 9.218% respectively Total variance was identified as the most important obstacles to agricultural entrepreneurship in university education.

        The machine-made carpet supply chain faces multiple disruptions and must be resilient. To be resilient, identifying barriers holds significant importance. Previous research has examined barriers without considering the stages of supply chain resilience. In this study, barriers to supply chain resilience were identified based on the five stages of supply chain resilience, and their model was presented. The research population consisted of experts in the supply chain of the machine-made carpet industry, using judgmental and snowball sampling methods. The sample size for identifying factors based on theoretical saturation was 14, while in the modeling stage, it was 10. The results indicated 20, 20, 16, 16, and 16 barriers in each of the five stages. Variables such as lack of trust, network complexity, lack of top management commitment, cultural challenges, and low human resource competence are of high importance based on their frequency in the five stages and the roles they play, requiring special attention. To overcome these barriers, it is suggested to focus on developing information infrastructure, employing innovative technologies, conducting training courses, and enhancing human resource management systems Manuscript profile
