Tourist activities on Farms. Successful management. Practical Guide for Farmers all over the world.

Farmers offering agrotourism meet with people from nearby cities and distant countries. This brings added value for everyday life in sometimes lonely villages. Above all, agricultural tourism should improve farmers' incomes.

This handbook is designed to help farmers who want to develop, expand or improve touristic services on their farm. It is designed to be like a “recipe book“, an instruction manual for practical actions. To facilitate dialogue with readers, the various subject areas are discussed in the form of Frequently Asked Questions. The questions and answers make easy understandable which developmental steps should be undertaken and which aspects have to be taken into consideration in setting up economically viable agrotourism services which meet the specific requirements of the market and target groups. Many practical examples provide an additional stimulus.    

The handbook contains useful, detailed information and recommendations for the subject areas of: agrotourism as an alternative source of income, the necessary personal and operational framework conditions, development goals, target groups, range of services, economic viability, pricing and financing, quality standards, cooperation and marketing.

This handbook provides farmers with an instrument that will support them in developing their ideas and enable them to carefully consider the many steps required to implement them. Checklists and other tools will help farmers evaluate ideas and set priorities. Farmers are also provided with information on external support measures. This should help farmers develop the potential income from agrotourism for their own farms. The handbook is designed for farms just beginning to develop agrotourism as well as those simply interested in specific questions and issues around the topic.
