1. AGRI / AGRO TOURISM
Family on the Farm and the Farm in the Family

2.  It is defined most broadly, involves any
agriculturally based operation or activity that brings
visitors to a farm
 Agri Tourism is however not all about staying in a
village and relishing the food, this is an opportunity
to be close to where the 75% of Indians live.
 Our idea is to make tourists live life like a
rural/farm, right from milking the cow, ploughing
the field, bathing in a well to climbing a tree and
plucking fruits, know the farmer daily routine and
enjoy rural games.
