Agro tourism or agricultural tourism, is one alternative for improving the incomes and potential economic viability of small farms and rural communities. India is an agriculture country and most of its people live in villages. Present concept of travel and tourism is limited to urban and rich class which constitutes only a small portion of the population. However, the concept of Agri Tourism takes travel and tourism to the larger population, widening the scope of tourism due to its cost effectiveness. India’s tourism industry is experiencing a strong period of growth in high spending foreign tourists, and coordinating government campaigns to promote ‘Incredible India’.Tourism is termed as an instrument for employment generation ,poverty alleviation and sustainable human development. Agro-tourism is the concept of visiting a working farm or any agricultural, horticultural, or agribusiness operations for the purpose of enjoyment, education, or active involvement in the activities of the farm or operation. In general Agro Tourism is the practice of attracting visitors to an area used primarily for agricultural purposes.It includes Rural/Agricultural Environments + Farm Commodities + Tourism Services = Agro tourism.

Tourism has long been one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing industries, with both developed and developing countries relying on it for economic growth. The demand for agro and rural tourism has grown exponentially in recent years. Agro tourism plays a huge role in the activation of rural areas. Its position and market power affects a number of external components and mechanisms. And although its positive impact on the economic and social development rural areas is noticeable, it also reveals a number of barriers related. An important aspect is to strengthen awareness of local communities concerning benefits resulting from the development of this non-agricultural source of income. Only then it will trigger a multiplier effect that will eventually lead to reduction of unemployment, job creation in sectors serving tourists, revenue growth and will improve both living standard and working conditions of the population actively involved. Improving the visibility of rural values, processing, traditional crafts, rural buildings can become a powerful magnet for tourists, tourists looking for new unconventional forms of recreation. Benefits of the development of rural tourism can become real if there is visible involvement and close cooperation between both – service providers and local authorities.During the 2023 Union Budget, it was announced that a series of measures will be taken up to facilitate and develop tourism in India. Diversifying the basket of rural tourism offerings, in Union Budget 2023, under the scheme of Vibrant Villages Programme, tourism infrastructure and amenities will be facilitated in border villages. PMVIKAS has been conceptualised for encouraging traditional arts and handicrafts. Airports, unity malls and special schemes will be implemented throughout the year, with a focus on improving domestic travel.
