Resilience is one of the strategies to reduce the vulnerability of communities in dealing with natural hazards. Among environmental hazards, drought is the most costly natural hazard due to the decrease in production and severity of suffering for villagers and farmers. Assessment of the effects of recent drought in the country, Indicators of low resilience of societies against this natural hazard are therefore indispensable for resilience of societies against drought. This is an applied research and has been done by descriptive-analytical method with the aim of measuring and evaluating the level of rural resilience in facing drought risk. To conduct research, using library resources, indicators and factors affecting rural resilience were identified and defined operationally. Then, using the field method and the questionnaire, the required information was gathered and the information collected using SPSS software Processed. The statistical population of the rural farmers is Hablehrood. For this purpose, 9 villages from different areas of the province with different levels of drought and development were selected and based on the Cochran formula, 271 farmers were selected as sample size. The tests used in this research are single sample T, Friedman test and Pearson correlation coefficient. The results showed that the level of field fluctuation was at an undesirable level and lower than the average level, and the rural areas of Hablehrood watershed were at risk of drought occurrence in the vulnerability to resilience.
