There are “pros” to starting an agri-tourism business. It’s a “clean” form of economic development that requires relatively less capital outlay for infrastructure development. Agri-tourism also yields benefits to recreational, hospitality, and other businesses in the community. It creates employment opportunities for family members and supplements farm income. Your business should create new networking contacts and forge stronger links within your community. Agri-tourism provides farmers with the ability to show and tell people what agriculture is about.
