Forestry industries operate under complex conditions characterized by long production cycles, resource dependence, institutional uncertainty, and increasing market volatility. These characteristics create significant challenges for maintaining supply chain stability and adaptive capacity. While previous studies have emphasized supply chain integration and collaborative governance outcomes, limited attention has been paid to how governance capability contributes to supply chain resilience in resource-based industries. This study develops a conceptual framework to explain the relationship between governance capability and supply chain resilience in forestry industries. Drawing on collaborative governance theory, supply chain management theory, and institutional adaptation perspectives, the study identifies four key dimensions of governance capability: information integration capability, collaborative coordination capability, institutional adaptation capability, and resource integration capability. The study argues that these capabilities enhance resilience by improving visibility, coordination efficiency, adaptive responses, and resource reconfiguration under uncertain conditions. The framework provides theoretical insights into resilience-building mechanisms in forestry supply chains and offers practical implications for enterprises and policymakers seeking sustainable and adaptive supply chain development.
