tourists stay with local people in rural areas
Farm/ranch recreation refers to activities conducted on private agricultural lands, which might include fee-hunting and fishing, overnight
stays, educational activities, etc.Experts believe that in addition to the customer services jobs, agritourism pays special attention to the
production sector, saying agricultural tourism is much more important and practical than other branches of tourism because it creates a new
chain and diversity in the field of production and services.Agritourism and nature-tourism enterprises might include outdoor recreation
(fishing, hunting, wildlife study, horseback riding), educational experiences (cannery tours, cooking classes, or tea or coffee tasting),
entertainment (harvest festivals or barn dances), hospitality services (farm stays, guided tours, or outfitter services), and on-farm direct
sales (u-pick operations or roadside stands).Agritourism is a subset of a larger industry called rural tourism that includes resorts,
off-site farmers' markets, non-profit agricultural tours, and other leisure and hospitality businesses that attract visitors to the
countryside.AFM
